POLISHED AND PRIDEFUL

June 2025 @ The National Beauty Academy Sunderland

BOLD BEAUTY

As Pride Month draws to a close, we’d like to share some of the bold and beautiful looks created in the Academy this June!

The talent and creativity of our students always absolutely astounds us ❤️ 🩷 🧡 💛 💚 💙 💜

LEARNER OF THE MONTH

Kathryn has earned Learner of the Month for her eagerness to learn and submitting her work on or ahead of time. Her tutor Lesley has witnessed her confidence flourish in her practical skills since she began at the NBA in March!

Three months ago, Kathryn came to us seeking a change – with no prior knowledge or experience in the beauty industry. She is currently flying through (and very much enjoying) Level 3 Combined Beauty.

“I love learning at the NBA and the staff are so welcoming and friendly”

She has found joy in learning a range of treatments and hopes to become self employed in order to fit around what is most important to her – her family. Kathryn’s husband and daughter have even both enjoyed being an assessment client from massage to makeup!

“My favourite treatment has been Makeup which has led me to progress onto NBA’s Makeup Artistry Diploma. My tutor Lesley has been a huge support and helped me grow my confidence”

ICY TIGHTENING FACIALS

Ice facials (also known as skin icing) is taking off, especially as the UK temperature heats up.

Not only does this treatment cool you down and make you feel relaxed… it also de puffs your skin and tightens pores, allowing for a smooth and flawless makeup base! Add an instant glow to your skin and calm any redness or irritation.

It doesn’t even have to cost you a penny! It can be done with an ice cube / bowl of ice water or for that added touch of luxury – grab an ice globe or jade roller.
