Description
Confusing skincare ingredients, unclear product choices, and uncertainty about skin types can make it difficult to build an effective skincare routine or provide confident advice. The Skin Care Course from High Skills Training helps learners understand skin types, skin conditions, skincare ingredients, and professional skincare principles, allowing them to make informed decisions about products, routines, and client support. This course provides theory-based knowledge and does not replace regulated practical qualifications such as VTCT or Ofqual-recognised beauty qualifications.
This online course is suitable for care workers and also for individuals interested in personal skincare knowledge, beauty and makeup artists, aspiring skincare consultants, salon and spa support staff, skincare content creators, product retailers, and existing beauty professionals seeking CPD learning. It is also ideal for those exploring the beauty industry before committing to further professional training.
Learners will explore the foundations of skin care and dermatology, including skin structure and functions, different skin types, common skin conditions, and the role of skincare professionals in the UK. The course addresses common concerns such as acne-prone skin, sensitive skin, pigmentation, ageing, and skin barrier health. Learners will also understand how genetics, hormones, lifestyle factors, and environmental influences can affect skin health.
The course covers skin analysis, client consultation, patch testing, ingredient safety, and reading product labels to better understand formulations. Learners will explore active ingredients, cosmeceuticals, cleansing, exfoliation, moisturising, sun protection, and common skincare treatments. Additional topics include skincare for different client groups, infection control, UK cosmetic regulations, GDPR, professional accountability, business development, marketing, sustainability, and future trends in skincare.
Upon completion, learners receive access to additional resources, quizzes, and a FREE Digital certificate to support their professional development and assess their understanding. With 24/7 learner support, a 14-day money-back guarantee, and fully online learning, this Skin Care Course allows learners to study at their own pace.
