Train for a beauty career you can actually book work in.
Small, hands-on certificate courses in makeup, nails, lashes & brows and skincare — for hobbyists, career-switchers and working pros. You finish with real skill, a portfolio and an honest plan for paying clients.
A studio that teaches you to do the work, not just watch it.
Maison Belle began in a small Bugis shophouse studio when our founder, a working bridal artist, grew tired of seeing talented people pay for courses that left them with a certificate and no real ability. We built the opposite: small classes, hours on live models, and tutors who still work in the industry.
Whether you are here for a relaxed hobby course or a full career switch, you train the same way — hands-on, corrected as you go, and told honestly what each course does and does not qualify you for. No inflated promises, no forty-person demo rooms.

Certificate & diploma courses
Eight hands-on courses across makeup, nails, lashes & brows and skincare — from short hobby foundations to full career tracks. Each finishes with a Maison Belle certificate.
Professional Makeup Artistry Diploma
Our flagship career track — from skin prep and colour theory to bridal, editorial and event makeup, finished with a graded portfolio shoot.
Bridal Makeup Certificate
A focused advanced module on long-wear bridal looks, trials, touch-up timelines and managing a real wedding morning.
Professional Nail Technician Certificate
A full certificate in gel, structured manicures, pedicures and nail art — built for salon work or your own home studio.
Lash Extension & Lift Certificate
Classic and volume lash extensions plus lash lifts, taught hands-on with isolation, mapping and retention drilled until it sticks.
What training here actually feels like
Small, corrected classes
Classes are capped so a tutor watches your hands and corrects you in the moment — you are never one of forty faces in a demo room.
Hours on real models
You spend most of your course working on live models, not watching slides. Skill lives in the repetitions, so we give you plenty of them.
A certificate studios know
Local studios and salons we work with recognise the Maison Belle certificate — and we are honest that your portfolio and attitude close the booking.
Honest career talk
Expect a straight answer on where the paying work is, what it pays, and what each course does and does not qualify you for. No inflated promises.
Looks our students created
A small selection of graded portfolio looks — bridal, editorial, soft glam and bold colour — shot during our courses on live models.
Training that opens real doors
We are honest about the work: bridal weekends, content shoots, salon chairs, home studios and clinic assistant roles. Here is the academy in numbers.
Taught by people still in the industry
Clarisse spent a decade as a bridal and editorial artist across Singapore weddings and shoots before opening Maison Belle. She still takes a handful of bridal bookings a year so her teaching stays current, and she leads the makeup diploma personally.
Renee built and sold a busy lash studio before moving into teaching. She is exacting about isolation, retention and hygiene — the unglamorous habits that separate a set that lasts from one that falls out in a week.
Marissa trained as a facial therapist and worked in both day spas and an aesthetics clinic. She teaches skincare with a careful eye on scope — confident on facials, clear about where regulated clinical work begins.
What our students say
“I came in from an admin job with zero experience and left with a portfolio and my first three bridal bookings — which is more than I dared hope for. The classes were small enough that Clarisse actually corrected my blending instead of just demoing on a model up front.”
“Renee was strict about isolation and retention and I am glad she was — my sets actually last now. I started taking clients from my home studio within a month of finishing and they keep rebooking.”
“I only wanted to learn to do my own makeup for work and weddings, and the course delivered precisely that — no pressure to go pro, just six relaxed evenings that finally taught me a proper everyday face and a winged liner.”
“The course covered the boring-but-vital things — hygiene, soak-off without damage, pricing — that the YouTube tutorials skip. I opened a licensed home studio and it has paid for the course several times over already.”
