About Face – Makeup Lessons

Finally it’s time to announce my new program to bring perfect makeup to a face near you! Even better – a face on you! I am taking bookings now for my new Lessons in Makeup, to be held from September onwards.

Being a professional makeup artist, friends and clients are continually asking me how to apply their own makeup. Sometimes it’s as simple as which kind of foundation to use, or whether or not to buy a certain makeup brush or product, other times it’s details how to perfectly apply the classic smokey eye or an effortless natural look for daytime. I absolutely L.O.V.E sharing my tips and giving advice on makeup application and products, so this new part of my makeup artistry business here on the Sunshine Coast, and spilling over to Brisbane, is a natural step for me.

So, what can you expect when you book me for a lesson? Firstly, it’s all about you – I will personalise your lesson to exactly what you want to learn. If you’re not sure, I will be happy to talk it through with you and make a suggestion on what I believe will suit your style and lifestyle so you can hussy yourselves up with the best of them!

My makeup lessons will be super fun, and you can book in as a group for a fun afternoon or evening with the girls before heading out on the town. Or if you would prefer some one-on-one attention and privacy, you can also book in for a private tutorial.

  • Contouring and highlighting to flatter and improve the appearance of the shape of your face
  • Which products are must-haves for you, and which ones you can get by without
  • Skin care and makeup product advice
  • Colour choice advice
  • Practical advice on makeup designs to suit certain outfits/styles and occasions
