Are you interested in the application of beautiful, flawless makeup but find it difficult to navigate your way to right tuition? Do you want to develop or build your application skills and knowledge to result in perfect, professional results every time? Are you an MUA wanting to specialise in a certain area of makeup, or looking for possible representation by a highly respected agency?

Well, I am very excited to tell you that Ella, founder of Facebase studio here in Cornwall, has recently launched a brand new venture for anyone wishing to develop a greater understanding and working knowledge of professional make-up application. Not only this, but Facebase academy will also be offering successful students - who prove to have the necessary skills and flair - representation through Facebase Agency...but more on this later!!


Facebase Academy is a fresh new venture, and is the only specialist makeup academy and working studio set in the heart of Cornwall, created as a result of numerous requests at Facebase for private tuition. 
Ella has provided one on one tuition in the past and has now decided to offer her specialist skills and knowledge in a professional environment for anyone wanting to attend. From those looking to improve their own skills for personal application, to those wanting to get into the world of professional makeup, right through to practising MUAs wanting to add the Facebase Academy string to their bow, the courses provided really do have something for everyone.

Along with learning all of the skills and techniques listed above, attendees will also receive real-time demonstrations, a professional photoshoot with top photographers and models, a digital portfolio, tea/coffee/refreshments and lunch on site. A professional Facebase make-up kit containing a selection of professional products that are not available on the high street is available, and comes highly recommended for the course, at a very reasonable additional cost. All participants will receive a Facebase Academy Diploma upon course completion, and will also have the opportunity of potentially being selected by Ella to join the ever expanding Facebase Agency - meaning REAL wedding jobs could be just around the corner from course completion!!

The Facebase Academy will work in conjunction with Facebase Agency, who will carefully select and invite the very best MUAs for representation. This would bring with it the possibility of job enquiries via the agency soon after having completed the Academy courses. This representation also has the benefit of no exclusivity clauses, so your freelance work would remain unaffected. However, when working on Facebase Agency jobs you would be a representative of the Facebase brand and so terms and conditions of conduct would rightfully apply.

Ella is based in Cornwall but travels and works all over the country, and at the busiest times has been known to turn down 10 weddings or more per month due to only being one person!!
Facebase Academy is based in Truro, Cornwall but easily provides nationwide coverage. Therefore students and MUAs from any location are invited and welcome to attend the Facebase Academy as well as potentially being selected for representation via the Facebase Agency!

If you are interested in applying for any of the Facebase Academy courses, or would like more information please contact Facebase here.


I have been fortunate enough to be invited to attend a day of the Facebase Academy experience so that I may report back to my lovely readers on what exactly happens on the courses. I will be sure to take lots of photos and jot down lots of notes, so watch this space for a full report!!!
