Professional Make-Up Brands Now Available To General Public At L Makeup Institute!

L Makeup Institute, which opened in 2010 as the first educational academy in Las Vegas offering a full curriculum in makeup artistry, has expanded to a new 4,000-square-foot facility and added a retail offering open to consumers for the first time.

The general public now has access to brands previously only available to professional makeup artists, including Kryolan Pro Zone, Ben Nye, exclusive products from Makeup Forever, RCMA and more.  As L Makeup Institute’s core platform is education, there is always a professional artist on hand to assist consumers with selecting the appropriate products and providing expert beauty advice.  Unlike the behemoth beauty emporiums which can so easily overwhelm shoppers, the Institute’s offerings have been carefully curated to showcase only the most revered pro products.

In conjunction with the new retail area, L Makeup Institute will debut a series of complimentary consumer workshops designed to impart professional beauty tips and tricks.  Workshop topics include: waterproofing your makeup, teen makeup, how to look HD camera ready, the beauty of color for ethnic skin tones and how to use cosmetics to look more youthful.

L Makeup Institute offers courses in beauty, airbrush, body painting and special effects, along with specialized workshops, all taught by established professional, media and film production artists.  The facility features separate training areas for beauty and special effects, individual learning stations, superior lighting for proper skin tone matching and technical applications, a photography studio, surround sound and high definition television and video screens and production, along with a library and resource center.  Each course is limited to twelve students in order to deliver the personalized instruction necessary for developing elite artists.

More than 150 students have graduated from the school since its opening, many who have gone on to work in the industry and job placement assistance is offered to graduates. Sessions range from 100 to 600 hours with tuition from $2,000-$20,000 which includes the necessary products and materials required for each course. Financing is available.

Founder Lissette Waugh, one of Las Vegas’ most sought after makeup artists whose work has been featured in numerous local, international and national publications, developed the curriculum and educational standards for L Makeup Institute, which is licensed by the Nevada State Commission on Postsecondary Education.  Waugh handpicks every educator for the school, ensuring they meet the qualifications and can provide the hallmark education the academy requires.

L Makeup Institute’s new facilities are located at 5525 S Decatur Blvd., Suite 102, Las Vegas, NV 89118.  Retail hours are Monday-Saturday from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m.
