"I enrolled in the Makeup Artistry program at Blanche Macdonald Centre after researching several schools online. I was impressed by the curriculum and reputation of BMC. The instructors were amazing – they taught us not only how to apply makeup but also how to market ourselves as artists. I learned so much about different skin types/tones/textures; color theory; product knowledge; sanitation/safety protocols; client communication; business management – all essential skills for a successful career in this industry." - Sarah L., Vancouver
"I always had a passion for fashion design but didn't know where to start until I found Blanche Macdonald Centre's Fashion Design & Merchandising program. The program covered everything from sketching/drawing techniques to pattern-making/sewing/cutting methods to trend forecasting/marketing/sales strategies. The instructors were supportive and encouraging throughout my journey – they helped me develop my own style while staying true to my vision." - Alex T., Toronto
"Esthetics has been my calling since I was a teenager but it wasn't until I discovered Blanche Macdonald Centre that I realized how much more there was to learn! The Esthetics program covered not only basic skincare/facials/waxing/makeup application but also advanced treatments such as microdermabrasion, chemical peels, and laser hair removal. The instructors were knowledgeable and patient – they made sure we understood the theory behind each technique before practicing on clients. I feel confident in my skills now and can't wait to start my own business!" - Maria S., Vancouver
