Skillbox
Here at Skillbox, we are a government funded adult learning centre, specialising in makeup artistry training and beauty career development, based in Blackburn, UK. We pride ourselves on not only being able to develop your personal skillset as a professional makeup artist, but as being able to help you successfully create and grow your own brand, within the thriving beauty industry.

It's been amazing, I've really loved training with the Skillbox team, and I feel so much more confident in my skills as a makeup artist now! I don't think I'd be where I am today professionally if it wasn't for training at Skillbox a few years ago, I'm so proud of myself and my business. I can't believe I can finally call myself a pro MUA! I've learnt so much at Skillbox, and I'm really looking forwards to growing my own brand.
Services
Founded in 2017 as an adult learning centre, Skillbox founder and Operations Director Meena Omar soon realised that after deciding to offer the VTCT L3 Award in Makeup Artistry to her students, that her life long ambition of owning a makeup training academy could finally become a reality.

Amazing service and very knowledgeable! Hard to find a beauty course with in depth understanding of makeup artistry and skin care!!! The team here is so passionate and enthusiastic every session, which makes it alot easier to follow through.
I've learnt so much from Meena and Charlotte in the past couple of weeks, need to say I feel much more confident with applying makeup. Never seem to second guess the skill I've learnt through skill box.
If you're looking to learn how to properly apply makeup and take care of your skin, then this is the right course for you. I couldn't recommend it enough

One of my best choices starting this course I have met some lovely new women. They have lovely staff, Meena is amazing! She helps me whenever I’m struggling, and i also feel very comfortable with her. I’ve had quiet a rough few weeks, contemplating wether to leave the course and Meena has always been so understanding, patient and just so supporting in every way! Charlotte also is amazing, she is so caring, always checking up on me making sure I don’t need anything. They both are so polite well mannered women! And it’s been a privilege having the opportunity to study my level 3 diploma makeup
