“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. The beauty industry is booming and so are the endless job opportunities that arise from undertaking this course. I am really glad to be undertaking the Beauty Therapy Level 5 course at the Ormonde College.”
