WHAT OUR GRADUATES SAY:
Practical, perfect foundation. 4 years in the industry – jobs for Hillary Clinton, Thomas Sabo, ABOUT YOU, Zalando. The Academy gave me skills and confidence.
I trained as a hair and makeup artist at the Academy, where I gained an excellent foundation for my professional career. During my training, I learned everything from hairstyling to makeup and was perfectly prepared for working with clients. Thanks to the excellent and practical training, I have now been working in the industry for four years and have had the opportunity to work with renowned brands and personalities such as Thomas Sabo, Mister Spex, About You, Zalando, Flaconi, Hillary Clinton, Kilian Kerner, and Michael Michalsky. The academy not only taught me the craft, but also gave me the confidence to gain a foothold in the industry. Highly recommended!
6-month program: personal, not “canned”. Pro portfolio shootings. Through Inclover Agency into shows – even Fashion Week.
I completed a six-month training course as a makeup artist and hairstylist at Inclover. Choosing this academy was absolutely the right decision. Over the six months, we were taught everything an artist needs to know and be able to do. Starting with hair/hairstyles from every area, beauty makeup, creative, fashion, runway, TV makeup and even everything important about professional life afterwards. No topic was simply “worked through”; the instructors always responded to our needs and gave us the opportunity to develop in the direction we wanted. The shoots for the portfolio were very professional, the pictures were taken by well-known photographers from the fashion and TV industry. After the training you are added to the Inclover Agency and placed with clients (shootings/shows etc.). Since finishing I’ve already been able to work at Fashion Week shows with the Inclover team. Highly recommended – best team ❤️
Intensive 3-month program: hands-on, professional, skills improved a lot. Supportive trainers, creative vibe.
I had the opportunity to study at InClover Academy for an intensive 3-month program, and it was an incredible experience. The training was hands-on, professional, and really elevated my skills. I also had the chance to collaborate with amazing creatives and industry professionals, which helped me grow both technically and artistically. The environment was inspiring, the instructors were supportive, and the overall vibe was creative and motivating. Highly recommend for anyone serious about beauty and fashion!

WE SET NEW STANDARDS
Everything you need to get started as a makeup artist—in one digital program.
Normally, you would have to...
▸ piece together individual online courses,
▸ pay for expensive business mentoring on top of that,
▸ work long and hard to get agency representation and hope for referrals,
▸ and laboriously organize a high-quality portfolio yourself (which costs time and money).
💸 Result: often a lot of time, a lot of money (sometimes five-figure sums), and a long lead time—without any guaranteed results.
With us, you get everything in one program. Online, flexible, and easy to plan.
▸ Live training sessions and video lessons available anytime in small groups – with personal 1:1 feedback (including recordings)
▸ Online Business Start-up Academy: Positioning, visibility, pricing, offers, customer acquisition – step by step.
▸ Optional: Photo shoot camp in Berlin with an internationally experienced team – high-quality images that build trust and showcase your skills.
▸ Community & mentoring with clear guidance – support even after the training program has ended.
A well-thought-out, digital path that guides you step by step to starting your job—no commuting, with a plan.

Your training package - based on four pillars
Was du wirklich brauchst, um gebucht zu werden: Praxis, Portfolio, Business-Basics & Support.
📚 Digital training (part-time)
Video lessons available anytime and live training sessions with our instructors (including recordings) in small groups – with personal 1:1 feedback.
Skin preparation & makeup – at a professional level. You will develop your own techniques and adapt them to the skin, lighting, time frame, and situation. Our goal: You work confidently, quickly, and cleanly for your customers.
We accompany you step by step until you have mastered the application and can present yourself confidently.
💡 Online Business Start-up Academy
How do I find clients? How do I calculate my prices correctly? What should I focus on when starting out?
You will not only learn how to apply makeup, but also how to make a living from it: We have a complete roadmap for creating a service for your ideal clients, how to become visible and receive inquiries (website/Instagram/referrals).
The steps to get there are completely online with video lessons, templates, and personal feedback in live training sessions.
Our common goal: first paid jobs in a short time.
🤝 Community & Mentoring (digital)
You will become part of a closed online community. During regular live consultation hours and in the group, you will receive clear next steps, honest feedback, and updates—so you can stay on track and up to date until you are successfully self-employed.
Our mentoring programs support you far beyond the training itself: we sharpen your profile, refine your offerings, and optimize your presence (website & Instagram).
This is how you can make the transition from a side hustle to stable self-employment—or to an exciting permanent position.
💼 Portfolio & References (optional)
If you want, you can take your portfolio to the next level at the photo shoot camp in Berlin—with a professional team (photographers, stylists, models). During intensive preparation days before the shoot, we'll put the finishing touches on your look, get you ready, and rehearse your poses.
The result: international-quality photos that inspire confidence and make you stand out on your website, Instagram, and in job applications.

Marie's results from Inclover's digital makeup training
The live training sessions and honest feedback changed everything—today, I style Asian brides internationally (including Italy, Greece, and France).
Marie Frauhammer, luxury wedding makeup artist for Asian brides
Find your niche. Become premium. Feel freedom.
MARY'S INITIAL SITUATION
Marie ran a small beauty salon in the countryside. She put in a lot of effort but received little appreciation—and her prices were consistently too low. She wanted to get out of the price war, further her professional training, and completely reorient her profile.
THE SOLUTION
Marie chose our digital program, and through joint training sessions, she developed a new goal for herself: luxury wedding makeup for Asian brides. In live training sessions and through personal video feedback, she refined her makeup techniques for Asian skin tones and eyelid shapes while simultaneously building a high-quality public image (branding, website, Instagram, service structure, pricing). With a focused portfolio, clear positioning, and a specific target audience, she transitioned from an “everything for everyone” offering to a visible premium niche.
MARIES HIGHLIGHT'S
Career: Luxury Wedding specializes in Asian brides – international bookings
Visibility: Editorial features in Vogue Wedding and Harper’s Bazaar
Variety: Bridal shoots in Paris; strong references for website & social media.

HONEST WORDS FROM SAM HILL – FOUNDER OF THE INCLOVER ACADEMY
“I knew that if I continued like this, I would lose myself.”
I had a prestigious office job—a degree in economics, a good salary, security.
But every day I felt that this wasn't the right path for me.
So I quit. I jumped into the unknown. Without any contacts. Without a plan B.
Just with one dream: to become a makeup artist.
The beginning was tough. The training was expensive. Support from my school at the time? Zero.
I had to fight for everything myself—with small jobs, a lot of perseverance, and even more passion.
Today, I lead makeup teams at international fashion shows, my looks have been on VOGUE covers, and I've worked with celebrities and Hollywood stars. My resume is now 17 pages long.
But my greatest pride is the Inclover Academy.
Because today I can pass on everything I would have wanted back then.
We don't just teach you makeup—we show you how to build your new life around it.
With structure. With real-world practice. With a strong network. And with the firm belief that you can do it—full-time or step-by-step alongside your main job.
I hope you find the courage to follow your passion.
And I look forward to accompanying you on your journey.
❤️ Yours, Sam
You pay with your energy, your health—and your lifetime.
Of course, you could try to teach yourself everything. Attend individual workshops—without a plan, without feedback, without long-term support.
But what does that really cost you?
👉 Not just time.
👉 Not just money.
👉 But often your health as well.
Many of our students tell us about chronic exhaustion, tension, sleep problems, burnout — triggered by a job that they have been merely “enduring” for years, but have long since quit internally.
That's why we offer you more than just expertise:
✅ Personal support from experienced professionals
✅ Practical projects with renowned designers, photographers, and agencies
✅ And a clear, well-thought-out roadmap for building a secure career as a freelance makeup artist
This way, you can skip years of trial and error — and instead regain clarity, security, and a new zest for life.
Because you deserve to have a career that fulfills you — instead of burning you out.
INCLOVER ACADEMY – Only the best for your career
Sabine's results from the Digital Inclover Makeup Training
Sabine's INITIAL SITUATION
Sabine came from the automotive industry—with no prior knowledge of makeup. It was a solid job, but not fulfilling. She wanted to turn her interest in makeup into her main profession—but she lacked expertise, experience with customers, and a plan for the future. Her goal: to leave her old job and quickly find a creative profession with a secure start.
THE SOLUTION
Sabine chose our digital training program. In live training sessions and video lessons, she consistently built up the basics on a high level: workflow, skin preparation, color theory, lighting, everyday makeup looks, brows, and lips—plus hygiene routines, speed, and product handling.
Through personal 1:1 feedback on her practice looks, she became confident, fast, and precise step by step—exactly what she needs for everyday counter work. Her first goal became clear: to quickly find a permanent position with a strong brand and, at the same time, expand her self-employment. Three weeks after graduation, she was hired permanently at M·A·C.
SABINE'S HIGHLIGHTS
Working confidently under time constraints: a clean complexion, precise eyes, a polished finish.
Career: Permanent position at M·A·C three weeks after graduation. At the same time, she is building up her own business.
Success despite zero prior experience – entirely through digital methods.
Let's find out together which training program suits you best.
YOUR PATH TO A CAREER THAT FULFILLS YOU – DIGITAL & PLANNABLE

▸ Small groups & 1:1 feedback – so you can see your progress.
▸ Personal support from top lecturers with extensive, long-standing experience.
▸ Fixed rhythm: Live training and video lessons available at any time (including recordings) – practice-oriented, feasible alongside your job, but with a fixed structure for your progress.
▸ Optional: Shooting camp in Berlin with a professional team – international-level images that build trust.
▸ RIDA method (Business Start-up Academy): Positioning, pricing, customer acquisition – step by step to your first paid assignments or a suitable permanent position

No. You don't need any prior knowledge or training in hairdressing or cosmetics. We'll meet you where you are—from beginner to advanced.

You learn at a steady pace with live training sessions and video lessons that can be accessed at any time (including recordings), which are easy to fit in alongside family life and a full-time job. You receive clear tasks and personal 1:1 feedback on your looks.
›How much time should I plan for each week?
Schedule regular practice times in addition to the live sessions. We will provide you with a realistic weekly schedule and help you balance your studies and career.
›How large are the groups?
We work in small groups (usually max. 6 participants) – this allows for individual feedback in each session.

›What technical equipment do I need at home?
Stable internet connection, a smartphone or camera, and good lighting (e.g., ring light or working by a window). You will receive specific recommendations during the first live training session. For exercises, you will work on yourself or with a model from your environment—this often leads to initial customer relationships.
›Are there portfolio shoots?
Optional: Our high-quality shooting camp in Berlin with a professional team (photography, styling, model). We prepare you, accompany you on set, and curate the best motifs together. This results in images that build trust and visibly enhance your website/Instagram.

›What degree will I receive?
You will receive a certificate from our academy, which is certified as an educational institution in accordance with state examination procedures. When it comes to bookings, skills and reference images are what count most—and that's exactly what we'll work on with you. The certificate is a must for permanent positions.
