About Backstage Academy
Redefine “BACKSTAGE”
We are committed to developing internationally‑minded makeup artists. Our instructors bring together knowledge and techniques from different countries, blending global expertise into a teaching approach tailored for students in Malaysia. To ensure our learners receive world‑class makeup skills and industry insights, we invest heavily in research, innovation, and the continuous development of new training materials.
All our students receive both theoretical and practical training, with a minimum of 50 real‑world outdoor assignments to build hands‑on experience. We also offer a Lifetime Learning Programme, allowing graduates to return and continue learning the latest makeup techniques. Our one‑to‑one teaching approach focuses on each student’s technical development while encouraging extensive industry practice. During their studies, students also participate in an advanced training camp in Taiwan, where they are exposed to new cultures, creative perspectives, and broader artistic inspiration. This comprehensive approach ensures that every student benefits fully and is well‑prepared for future career opportunities in the beauty and fashion industry.
