Maison Lumia
Professional Sugaring Training
A two-day hands-on course in organic sugaring technique — for practitioners who want to offer precise, body-friendly hair removal.
Course details
What this training is
This is a practitioner-level course in organic sugaring — taught by Zoë, founder of Maison Lumia. It covers the full method from paste chemistry through to supervised practice on live models, with a focus on technique that is consistent, hygienic, and genuinely effective on all skin types.
The approach we teach is the same approach we use in our studios every day. Nothing simplified. No shortcuts that compromise results or client safety.
Groups are limited to six participants so that every attendee receives real individual attention — not a demonstration watched from a distance.

Common questions
Before you enrol
Do I need prior experience in beauty therapy?
A background in beauty therapy or a related field is recommended. The course covers technique from the ground up, but familiarity with professional client care will help you get more from the practical sessions.
What is included in the course fee?
All sugar paste, disposables, and materials used during the two days are included. You will receive a printed technique guide, a hygiene protocol reference, and a certificate of completion.
How many participants are in each group?
We limit each session to six participants. This ensures individual attention during supervised practice and sufficient time on each body area.
Will I practise on real clients during the training?
Yes. The second day is dedicated to supervised practice on live models. By the end of the course you will have treated multiple body areas independently.
Is the certificate recognised professionally?
The certificate confirms attendance, practical assessment, and completion of the Maison Lumia training programme. It is not a government-issued qualification, but it demonstrates professional-level competency in organic sugaring technique.
