Our first campus opened in 2001 and was located in the funky, young designers fashion district of Prahran in Melbourne. After participating in countless high profile events such as L’Oreal Melbourne Fashion Festival, Chapel on Chapel, Fashion@Fed, Spring Racing Carnival, HBIA Fashion parades, The Age Sunday Magazine fashion shoots, Fashion Week, Arena TV Style Expo, to name just a few, word of mouth, quickly spread the message that our highly focused training methods were producing top-notch graduates, with great industry skills, brilliant reputations and most importantly, professional on-set etiquette.

Each year, the AOM trains hundreds of students from around Australia and beyond in a variety of make-up techniques, methods and styles.   Our Instructors have many years of extensive industry experience and they are all taught to train, using our specialized AOM Training Methods, which cater to all learning styles, no matter if you are someone who learns by seeing, or by hearing, or by actually doing. If you study with us, we will tap into your personal learning style and teach you in a way that brings out the Artist inside you.
