Who It’s For

Why Do This Course

Learn To Read Skin

Analysis comes first, so your product choices have a reason behind them.

Add Facials To Your List

Already doing lashes or nails? Facials give you a second service to sell.

Study Around Everything Else

Lessons run online and wait for you. No timetable to work around.

Where The Skills Fit

Where These Skills Could Take You

Skin work sits in salons, spas, clinics and shop counters. The day is consultations, treatments and honest product advice.

Skin Therapist

Treat skin week to week and track changes.

Facial Specialist

Build a book around one strong treatment.

Beauty Therapist (Skin Focus)

Bring skin depth to a salon list.

Product Demonstrator (Skin Care)

Mobile Facial Technician

Take the treatment to the client's home.

Roles where these skills are useful, not promised outcomes. Every job is different, and some ask for more study, insurance or supervised practice.
