“Make-up doesn’t make women beautiful. It is a form of self-expression, much like fashion; it can be used as an extension of your personality, a celebration of your individuality which is influenced by your culture and personal style. However, when used well, makeup can transform how you see yourself and, in turn, positively effect a woman’s self-esteem and self-confidence in an instant and that is what makes her beautiful. ”
— Phillipa Hughes

Good makeup is not about spending loads of money on luxury makeup or even purchasing a bucket loads of products.  It’s about: understanding your skin, your bone structure, what equipment you already own and how to use it to your best advantage, where to spend money and where you can save it.

Let’s face it…every woman has products in her make-up bag or drawer that were bought on impulse because:

  • you liked the packaging but you don’t know how to use the product correctly.

  • “it looked nice on me in the shop”!  

  • you had a department store makeover and had to buy products at the end of it.

  • you’d read about it in a magazine or on social media.

  • you changed your hair colour…..etc!

Answered “YES” to any of those statements above?

A makeup lesson with me could be an investment in yourself and save you quite a bit of money in the long run! I advise you where to invest your hard earned money and where you can save it when buying beauty products that work for you personally, your individual style, your colouring and your skin…..(Without the pressure of buying anything from any particular cosmetic counter!)

ANY OF THE FOLLOWING STATEMENTS SOUND LIKE YOU?

  • Been wearing the same makeup for years and don’t know how to update your look?

  • Never been taught how to apply makeup?

  • Don’t know what colours or brands suit you so decided not to bother wearing makeup?

  • Intimidated by all the products and brands on the market and don’t know where to start?

  • Makeup not staying where you put it?

IF SO, GET IN TOUCH WITH ME FOR SOME GUIDED EXPERT TUITION EITHER IN PERSON OR ONLINE. Learn tricks and techniques used to create a professional make-up look from a makeup industry professional.

WHAT DO WE COVER IN A PERSONALISED MASTERCLASS OR GROUP LESSON?

My online, one to one and group lessons are personalised to you, my client. I prepare classes to focus on what you specifically would like to learn so that you feel 100% more confident in your ability after a session with me.

I can cater to absoloute beginners and upwards or to those who would simply like to update their look, try new products or learn how to apply a fake lash or do a smokey eye, as just two examples amongst many options.

Within the lesson you will learn the best foundation type for your skin, colours that suit you, your skin tone and skin type, how to apply the make-up look you want to achieve using the correct tools. For some techniques or purposes, I shall demonstrate on myself or you, and you will follow in person or online under my guidance. Depending on your requirements, we take into consideration your lifestyle and personal style and, together, we can:

  • look at your skin care routine (good makeup is all about the skin prep)

  • review your existing makeup products (what suits you and what does not) which I will edit with you

  • review the best products for your skin type and colouring

  • show you a day and evening look and show you how to recreate these looks yourself with the best tools to do so and where to get them

  • look at your makeup brushes and I will show you how to use them correctly

  • address the problem of how to apply makeup to hooded eyes…….or why not learn just how to do the famous smokey eye with the smokey eye master!

TRANSWOMAN/MTF PERSONAL MAKEUP LESSONS

Social Media tutorials confusing you?  Overwhelmed by a zillion cosmetic and skincare products that claim to be the answer to your prayers?  Confused by the order you are meant to apply all these products? Purchased expensive products that you have no clue how to use or that simply don’t suit you?  Perhaps you just don’t know what suits you and need help understanding shades and tones for your colouring.  Whatever the reason that has brought you to my site: firstly, a warm welcome to you!  My Makeup Services are all inclusive and fully embrace the transgender community. I welcome all clients wishing to learn and understand makeup. I don’t discriminate on gender so prices for my services are the same for everyone.

Whether you are an absolute beginner or whether you have makeup issues that you can’t seem to resolve (hiding five o’clock shadow can be as much of a bitch as applying makeup to a hooded eye on mature skin) my one to one online lessons for MTF trans women allow you the opportunity to learn and understand makeup application from an industry pro whilst in the privacy of your own comfortable space.  It can be pricey being a woman (trust me…this stuff ain’t cheap)!  So, walk away from You Tube (so much misinformation and bad advice), save yourself some very expensive makeup mistakes and book a lesson with me to understand the ‘what, where, why and how’ of makeup application for your unique colouring and bone structure.

Lessons with me are packed full of information so be ready!
