about us
Elevating the makeup services industry — one day, one class, and one student at a time.
Kensington Makeup Academy is a beauty education program that equips students for success in the makeup and hair styling industries. Going beyond beauty, we also teach the business side of a career in beauty services — an often overlooked aspect for creative professionals. With almost a decade of success as an ever-evolving brand, Kensington Makeup Academy continues to inspire beauty through educated artistry.
Our name was chosen with the help of a tube map, as an homage to our founder’s transformative time in London. Today, Kensington Makeup Academy continues to bring classic, British elegance to the world of beauty education.
