Makeup Lesson Details

The reason I started teaching make up was so my clients could repeat the process for themselves. When I teach, I focus on the what, how and why of product selection and application. I work on you in front of a Hollywood style make up station with the three types of light represented. The three types of light are daylight, fluorescent, and incandescent (bulb) lighting. Each type of light can cause make up to look un-natural so I teach you how to deal with each source of light.

I ask you to bring a notebook and audiocassette tape for taking notes because it takes two hours and is very detailed. Each woman has her own individual formula or personal best. Once I have identified your formula I walk you through each step by telling you what to use, where to use it, how to use it, and why to use it. I also explain to you how to shop for your precise make up formula.

One hour mini lessons after the initial two-hour make up lesson are the real way you become an expert on your "one of a kind" face. For a mini  lesson, I have you come in made up the best you can do from what you learned during the initial  lesson. Then I proceed to show you the subtle things you missed during the first lesson. When I cannot find any subtle errors in your technique, you are your own expert  artist on your particular face.

You will not be able to teach others because you would have to know how to formulate which takes many repeated classes and is strictly for the licensed professionals.

I am a commercial make up artist which means I understand the color temperature of light and its effects on media and reality. A commercial make up artist must match the make up to these types of media light, as well as reality. I worked in Hollywood, California for eleven years and decided to return to Kentucky to finish my book "Spry Looks the Thinking Woman's Guide to Natural Looking Beauty & Glamour", soon to be published.
