This course is aimed at people who want to learn how to apply their own make-up correctly and to a more professional standard. It covers looks that are suitable for work, casual social events and special occasions. We will give you a manual which details everything covered as well as the personalised information that we have gathered during your consultation and lesson.

We can use your make-up and tools so that you know how to work with what you already have, our make-up and tools, so that you know what to buy, or a combination. Either way, we will always advise you on the best products that are suitable for you.

You can come to us for your training, or alternatively, book us to come to you.

The course will cover the following in detail:

Consultation

Here we will discuss your taste, how you feel about applying make-up, areas that you struggle in and particular looks you would like to learn to create. This will dictate the material covered in your lesson.

Skin Preparation

You will learn how to prepare your skin for make-up application. We will assess your skin type and you will learn about what products are best suited.

Foundation colour matching and application

We will take a look at any foundation you currently use, and advise as to whether or not this is the best one for your skin type and colouring. We will carry out a colour match, and give you information of what colour we judge to be right for you. You will also learn how to colour match yourself, and the art of applying foundation correctly.

Eye make-up

Using information from your consultation, we will show you the correct way of applying eye make-up according to your taste, eye shape and skin type.

Lips & Cheeks

You will learn how to apply lip colour neatly and in a way that lasts, as well as receiving advice on what colours and types of lip colours suit you. We will teach you how to enhance your lip shape according to what you would like e.g. make your lips look plumper, thinner etc.

We will also teach you how to apply blusher to shape and contour your face, enhance your cheekbones, and the suitable colours for your skin tone and various looks.

Finishing Touches

We will teach you how to complete your make-up look with the finishing touches required to make it look professional and long lasting.

Finally we will combine all the information we have gathered and the skills you have learnt to create:

1 Special Occasion Look

1 Everyday Look

Although we will be at hand to help and advise, we will encourage you to apply the make-up yourself so that you have the confidence to continue doing so in the future.
