“The Beauty Therapy Level 5 course offers a wonderful introduction into the exciting and ever-growing industry, from learning the intricacies and wonders of the human body in anatomy, to insights in how to master running your very own beauty business. The course provides a wide variety of skills in all that’s beauty – including facial electrics and skin and nail care. The practical side of the course is such fun and insightful too. Each day we embrace, learn and master new skills. I share my love for beauty with a great bunch of fellow students and mentors that continuously support us on our learning journey.”
