Class Experience

In this course, make-up basics will be taught from the tools that should be used to the age-appropriate application of make-up. Students are expected to come with clean bare faces and the class will be primarily taught by example. I will cover topics that include: understanding face/eye shape, how to how to select the appropriate shadow color(s) for eyes, foundation and concealer basics, eyebrow shaping, and appropriate application of facial make-up. I like to engage with students and will begin introductions and the goals for each look. I will check-in with each learner and encourage them to check-in with each other by providing affirmations around their creativity and successful application of the make-up. No prior experience is needed. 

Over the time of the course (six-weeks start to finish), we will cover the following topics:
1. Face shape basics and appropriate tools
2. Framing the face: Foundation, concealer, brows
3. All about eyes: eye shadow, mascara, eye liner
4. Catching the angles: Highlighters, shimmers, and lips
5. Protecting your skin: primers, moisturizers, make-up removers
6. How to create a simple, effortless look

Learning Goals

Learners will not only learn how to apply make-up, but receive affirmations and gain confidence in their creative explorations around make-up for their own unique and developing style.
