Taking Online Courses

Continuing education has become a much easier prospect in the last few months with courses available in a wide array of subjects including suitable training for those in the media industry that professionally add dimension to your work and are well worth taking the time to do (roughly one hour for health and safety training). We are really pleased to say that our creative director and head of makeup JamesC, has completed and passed the Safe Sets COVID 19 Level A certification on behalf of The Lost Agency to ensure that our team is leading the way forward and ensuring that all of our staff are safe at work.

We would really like to thank the team at The Makeup Armoury whose blog details options of different training including Barbacide certificates for salon and freelance workers.

At this time we are advising our partners to share and take the course themselves for future work and we will be taking additional online training in other areas of both the fashion and media business to expand on our creative work and give our team an extra edge as we move forward in 2020 into 2021 allowing us to be more cohesive and offer a better service to our clients.

Our plan is to take on photography and creative direction courses to augment our work in editorial and later add to this with courses in direction for film and TV.

Pushing forward we do recommend and will be asking for the Safe Sets COVID 19 Level A certificate as part of working with our team *as will many companies so it is worth doing to ensure that you are up to date with your health and safety training.

Professional Supplies With The Makeup Armoury

Founded in 2016 The Makeup Armoury has become a go-to for industry suppliers. From beauty to FX they are a community-style shop designed to support the professional working artists of the industry. Started by a veteran of the industry Jan Sewell, this has become a go-to supply station and all-round makeup hub.

With a wide range of products from across the beauty and FX spectrum, The Makeup Armoury is setting a new benchmark in professionalism with their dedicated team of working artists making the biggest difference to how the shop works, the team are able to answer questions and offer support which can easily be seen from the blog and the general tenor of the reviews and people being interviewed.

A savvy array of products such as the world-renowned Makeup forever and artist dream Viseart palettes, it is the set bags that have become their biggest sellers. As any artist will tell you, carting your kit onset is just not practical. A good set bag, which the working artists behind the brand have found, can make your job so much easier.

Standing out (for our creative director in particular) is the Marlene, with a detachable tissue pocket and dividers internally it is the perfect accompaniment to working on set for film, TV, editorial and more.

 “The makeup industry with all its effervescence and ingenuity can be relentless and ruthless – this is where we come in. We are your comrades. We are your tools. We are your Armoury.”
