The Art of Makeup Instructors
Testimonials
thankful I didn’t have to drop thousands of dollars
“Prior to finding The Art of Makeup, I was a self-taught makeup artist. I wanted to learn more about makeup from a professional school and was overwhelmed with the costs of makeup schools and YouTube was no longer what I wanted to learn from. I loved everything that I learned in The Art of Makeup program. The industry knowledge and lessons learned are top notch. I am a better artist because of The Art of Makeup, and am thankful I didn’t have to drop thousands of dollars and relocate temporarily to another state to attend makeup classes”.
she even got me a great gig!
I took Celena’s makeup course and it was pretty awesome because I didn’t want to take cosmetology in order to polish my makeup skills, so it worked out amazingly for me! Celena is a great teacher. She makes you feel comfortable enough that you actually enjoy the process of learning. She is great at staying present as a mentor after the course period is done and she even got me a great gig!
“I absolutely LOVE Celena!!
“I absolutely LOVE Celena!! I was beginning to wonder if it would be too much of a struggle to juggle being a mother and makeup artist, but she showed me that it’s possible, and to be successful at both without having to sacrifice one for the other. She’s amazing…simply amazing!! Her ways of teaching were simple to understand, easy to grasp and her words were always encouraging!! I would recommend her to anyone that asked for a great makeup teacher!!”
Thank you for everything and all your hard work.
“Celena, you have taught me more than you will ever know! I feel like a real makeup artist. Thank you for everything and all your hard work.”
It means a lot to me…
“I wanted to thank you for everything you taught me and especially for the follow up after I left school. It means a lot to me that you still make yourself available to us now!”
It is great to have a teacher who actually cares about the students!
“Celena is a great teacher and adviser. There are so many teachers that teach makeup skills. It is great to have a teacher who actually cares about the students!”
I highly recommend!
“I never thought I’d be able to actually go to makeup school, but The Art of Makeup helped make that dream a reality for me. Celena, who runs the school, is amazing at what she does and cares so much about her students. One of the things I enjoyed about the instructors is they not only teach you lots of new techniques but also super valuable information that would be difficult to learn on your own – like proper sanitation, set etiquette, which products to use, and what different parts of the industry are like. I highly recommend!”
YOU ARE THE BEST CELENA!
“I really enjoyed your class. You are a great teacher! I’m sure your future students are lucky to have you as a teacher. You are full of personality. Thanks for everything. YOU ARE THE BEST CELENA! LOVE YOU!!!”
The Art of makeup is a great place
“The Art of makeup is a great place to start your new career in makeup. Celena’s knowledge and experience in the industry helped me a lot to learn what I need to know to get started. She answered all my questions, and she even has helped me get some jobs. “
photo shoots in Paris
“I came to The Art of Makeup School with zero makeup knowledge, and now I’m doing makeup for NYC Fashion Week, photo shoots in Paris, Portland indie feature films, and more. My education unlocked so many opportunities and adventures that I otherwise never would’ve experienced. The school made learning makeup artistry accessible to me with ADHD. I’m forever grateful to The Art of Makeup School for not only demystifying makeup for my own personal styling, but giving me the knowledge, experience – and most importantly confidence – to explore this career I never originally considered, but now love so much and couldn’t imagine not doing. Thank you Celena and The Art of Makeup School!”
“Best makeup school EVER!
“Best makeup school EVER! I am a licensed cosmetologist that wanted to expand my knowledge for makeup. I learned so much at this school! Everything you can do with makeup this school teaches you and beyond. My makeup skills have improved so much with the education provided. You learn more than just how to apply makeup also the education on how to market yourself after you graduate, product knowledge and the tools to get yourself started.”
TV and film, weddings, special FX
“I would highly recommend this school for anybody that is looking for a career in makeup, whether it be for TV and film, weddings, special FX or just to free lance. The teachers were highly skilled in their field of makeup ”
I’m 100% a different artist today.
“I highly recommend this school. The teachers and staff are all amazing! I thought I knew it all but boy was I wrong. I learned so much! I’m 100% a different artist today. I graduated last month and I’m already booking jobs and collaborating with photographers. This school goes out of their way to make sure you get everything out of their program. They are super supportive and want to help you achieve your dreams and goals. 💜💜”
Finding your school was a little miracle for me
“You are the greatest teacher that I could have asked for! Finding your school was a little miracle for me, and I am so glad that I have had the good fortune of learning from you. All the students I have met who studied under you feel the same way, too. You really are an awesome teacher!”
