Beauty Therapy Level 2 Kit (Makeup Application)

Since I'm only taking one module at University instead of the usual three from February onwards, I finally decided to take the plunge and enrol in a makeup course at college. I decided to go for the course 'City and Guilds VRQ Level 2 Certificate in Makeup Application' as it's only a part time unit for twelve weeks so it will fit in really nicely with my other studies. It's a great way to start too because it means that I can complete another three units whenever I want and then I'd have a full NVQ Beauty Therapy Level 2 qualification. The unit itself is usually £200, but my college made it free which was a really nice surprise. For the course I needed to purchase a uniform and kit which was a bit pricey. The kit was £172.49 all together, and I'd heard it was really basic so I was a bit bummed about having to pay so much. It finally arrived today though so I thought I'd show you everything I got. To be honest, I feel like it was a fair price for how much I actually got, and once you have the kit you can use it for your other units which is great. Here is everything if you were wondering what you get in these kits, as I know I was really curious to see!

The "Just For Eyes" Kit - £34.58

The main kit I needed was called the 'Cosmetic Makeup Kit' which was £104.17. This came with some of the items in a clear case just like the above kit, and the rest of the makeup was packaged in a vanity bag.
