My name is Brianna Hutchinson and this has been the perfect course for me. My favorite part about this course is that I have been pushed out of my comfort zone and have been encouraged and supported along the way. Makeup has always been an escape for me, as I started doing makeup for my cheer competitions when I was 9 and was heavily influenced by social media. Through this course I was able to navigate techniques that are professionally applied as well as perfecting my own personal styles. I am so grateful for the one-on-one tutoring that I received from Nathan, as it really helped to hear from someone in the industry and have professional support. I know the knowledge this course has provided me will lead me to amazing opportunities and I couldn’t do it without Nathan and QC Makeup Academy!

Qc Makeup academy had truly had a big impact on me. Going into the course I wanted to learn how to work with makeup and just learn how to do my own but with time I grew more and more love for the art and decided I can make this into a career.
