In this makeup class for women over 40, you will be guided on your techniques by Maria (plus another artist depending on number of participants) and work on your face to improve your own techniques and achieve a beautiful makeup application. At the end of the workshop you will know how to:
- prep your skin before makeup application
- apply foundation and concealer to cover discolouration and lift the face
- choose colours and placement of eye shadows which suit your eyes
- choose blush (cream and powder) and shades that work best for your complexion
- lip care, shades and products for your lips
PLEASE NOTE:
1) We will have extra makeup brushes on hand, but please bring your own clean brushes if you have them. If you have long hair, bring a headband and/or a clip to pull it back with.
2) If your day allows, please arrive with cleansed and moisturized skin. The space has a bathroom and a cleanser will be provided if you need to wash your face upon arrival. Please arrive early if you need to do this.
3) We cannot know all attendees' skin tones in advance, so please bring a liquid foundation and/ or concealer (if you wear it) and a face powder to help set your makeup. Please also bring your makeup bag so we can utilize the products in it. Most of us have too many products we don't use!
4) Plan to go out for a drink or dinner in the neighbourhood afterwards since your makeup will be all done!
5) Light refreshments will be provided.
6) By purchasing a ticket you agree to photos and video taken during the event for marketing purposes.
