Make-up lessons...where can I get one?

I don't want to just get my make-up done...I want to learn how to put it on...but maybe in one class not several. For instance I have always wanted to better learn how to put on eyeshadow. Any ideas?

Re: Make-up lessons...where can I get one?

  • Oooohhhhh oooohhhh...there's a coffee time article in today's Life and Style section of the Statesman.  They're talking to a girl who does Youtube videos that give instructions on how to apply makeup.  Maybe you could try that. 

    If that fails, then I also would recommend a tutorial by CJ.

    i think someone may have posted this link before... cause i was thinking of that too but i have no idea who to look for on youtube

  • When I went to the MAC counter at Nordstroms, I had the lady show me how to do it on one side of my face while I watched with a mirror, and then I asked her if I could do it while she watched me for the other side.  then she watched me and gave me pointers. . . its free, so worth a try!
  • I need and have wanted the EXACT same thing but didn't know where to go.  We could go together!
  • well lookie lookie ....who finally is into posting on the nest!=) YAY! Well let's find a place so we can learn already!!

  • You can call Sephora and make an appt for a 30 minute free lesson.
    We have so much time, and so little to do! Strike that, reverse it.

    Oh I'd come!!! When I came over to your house ... I SWEAR you changed my life! No exaggeration ... I learned so much about putting on makeup! I could always use some more hints and probably a refresher course, my memory is terrible!

  • I was bored with my usual go-to looks and went to a lesson from this local makeup artist a couple of years ago.  She had a room set up as a studio in her house and was really sweet, listened to what I was interested in learning, and showed me a couple of different looks to help pull me out of my routine and wrote down all of the products she used if I wanted to buy them on my own later (note- she doesn't sell makeup, so it was written down just for reference.)  It was fun!

    Candy Johnson's YouTube tutorials are good too if you need someone to break down more dramatic looks like smokey eye, cleopatra eyes, etc for you.

    I would totally be game for something like that.  I've been experimenting with eyeshadows lately and this would get me where I want to be much quicker.

  • Not meaning to steal CJ's thunder, MAC at Domain does give a class, it's $100 and you can get 4 friends to come in and split the cost. It's in the back and uninterrupted. You get a discount for a month to shop at MAC. And they will teach you several looks.

  • CJ - can you add me to the list of those interested in a lesson.  You did a fab job at my wedding and I haven't looked to even close to that good since that day.  I neeeeed you.

  • I so would want to come to something like this too! I have no clue how to do my makeup, and I'm intimidated about doing something at a makeup counter, etc.

    Can you add me? katie dot wright at gmail dot com
