Why This Class Exists

Confidence, not just technique

My goal is simple: to build your confidence in your artistry — whether you are doing your own makeup or building a client list of your own.

I answer every question you bring, however basic it feels. We work on what is actually holding you back — blending, base matching, eye placement, speed, pricing your work, or simply believing you are allowed to charge for it.

Virtual sessions run over Zoom, and your link is emailed a few hours before we start so you have everything ready. In-person courses are hands-on with live models.

  • One-to-one or very small groups
  • Beginners and working artists both welcome
  • Honest, specific feedback on your work
  • A reply to every application within 48 hours

What You Will Learn

The curriculum

Covered in full on the professional course; virtual sessions cover whichever modules you need most.

Skin & prep

Skin types, barrier care, priming for oily and dry skin, and why longevity is decided before the first pump of foundation.

Colour & matching

Undertone reading, mixing custom shades, correcting pigmentation and matching a neck and chest that actually belong to the same person.

Base & coverage

Buildable coverage, cream vs powder, setting for a 14-hour wedding, and eliminating flashback for photography.

Eyes & structure

Cut crease, halo, smokey and soft glam — adapted to hooded, monolid, deep-set and round eye shapes rather than copied from a tutorial.

Bridal & South Asian

Nikah, mehndi, baraat and walima looks, dupatta-ready hair structures, and how heavy jewellery changes the balance of a face.

Speed & workflow

Timing a full face, running a party of ten in sequence, and building the kit layout that makes it possible.

Hygiene & kit

Sanitation standards, disposables, decanting, product shelf life and building a kit that covers every skin tone without breaking you.

The business

Pricing your work, contracts and deposits, handling difficult requests, and building a portfolio that books clients.

Who It Is For

Three kinds of student

Just starting out

You have watched a hundred tutorials and still feel lost. We go back to fundamentals and build from there, without judgement.

Industry professional

You already take clients but want to sharpen bridal work, speed or pricing. We work on the specific gap, not the whole syllabus.

For yourself

You have no intention of going pro — you just want to do your own makeup well, for work, for events, for photos.
