Max Factor has launched an online make-up academy for the Middle East region designed to bring make-up artistry courses to students across the region.

The accessible program offers students access to a network and regional community of make-up artists, enabling those who follow the course the chance to pursue their passion regardless of location. The Coty-owned brand’s online academy will host interactive webinars covering industry trends as well as Do-It-Yourself classes designed to ignite creativity and empower women.

“Since the launch of the offline academy, I have sincerely and passionately worked towards sharing my love for make-up with as many people as possible. The online academy allows me to make my expertise accessible to more aspiring professionals and exposes them to a brand that delivers high-quality products and constantly strives to innovate,” said Samira Olfat, Max Factor’s Regional Make-up Artist, CEO and Chief Trainer of Max Factor Make-up Academy.
