SJB makeup lessons

What you can expect

AN EXPERIENCE TAILORED TO YOU

Makeup should be empowering, not overwhelming. My goal is to create a “judgment-free zone” where you can ask anything. We’ll start with a coffee and a chat about your current habits, your skin concerns, and exactly what you’d like to achieve.

A RELAXED, HANDS ON APPROACH

I use a “half-and-half” teaching method: I’ll demonstrate a step on one side of your face, and then guide you as you recreate it on the other. This ensures that when you wake up the next morning, you actually have the muscle memory and confidence to do it yourself.

Mastery Guaranteed

The entire lesson lasts 2- 2.5 hours, focusing on exactly what you want to learn—from foundation to contouring. You’ll walk away with a guaranteed understanding of your most flattering looks and a full set of SJB brushes to start practicing immediately.

MAKEUP LESSON FAQ’s?

What exactly is a 1-on-1 Personal Makeup Lesson with you, and how does it work?

My personalised makeup lesson is your dedicated time with me to master your perfect look. It’s 1-on-1 instruction, meaning the entire focus is on you. I start with a consultation to assess your current skills, skin type, and desired looks (e.g., everyday or evening glamour). I then teach you a full custom makeup routine step-by-step, typically demonstrating on one side of your face while you perform the hands-on learning on the other. You’ll leave with a tailored face chart and product list created just for you.

Should I bring my own makeup bag to my makeup class?

Absolutely, please do! Bringing your own makeup bag is highly encouraged. Your private makeup class is a fantastic opportunity for us to perform a makeup bag declutter and for you to get an honest product review on what you already own. We’ll sort through what’s working and what isn’t, and I’ll give you expert recommendations on using your existing items more effectively or suggest new items to fill any gaps.

Are your lessons suitable for mature skin or makeup beginners?

Yes, absolutely! My 1-on-1 makeup lessons are designed for all ages and skill levels. If you’re a makeup beginner, we focus on fundamental application techniques like foundation matching and blending. For clients with mature skin, the lesson is tailored to address specific concerns like fine lines, and we focus on lifting, brightening, and soft-focus techniques. This is truly bespoke tuition for your unique needs.

How long is a typical makeup lesson, and what is your pricing?

The standard makeup lesson duration is typically 2 – 2.5 hours. This time allows us to cover a full routine and ensure thorough hands-on learning and is priced at £300. I view this as an investment in skills that will save you significant time and money on future product purchases!

What specific techniques will I learn in my 1-on-1 makeup class?

Your lesson is completely customised to you, but common areas of focus include achieving flawless foundation that matches your skin tone and undertone, mastering simple or dramatic eye makeup techniques (like smoky eyes or hooded eye tips), eyebrow shaping, and effortless contouring or blush placement. You will learn the personalised skills most relevant to your goals and lifestyle.

How can I ensure I remember all the steps and product recommendations after the lesson?

I make sure you don’t forget a thing! Every client has the opportunity to reocrd the lesson, take photos and make detailed step-by-step notes to take home. This also includes a complete product list of everything we used and what I recommended. This guide is essential for you to confidently apply makeup and replicate the look on your own.

Do you offer virtual or online personal makeup lessons?

Yes, I do! I also offer a comprehensive online makeup lesson experience. If you prefer a virtual class from the comfort of your home, we can connect remotely. You’ll receive the same detailed, 1-on-1 instruction from me, your professional makeup artist, with product recommendations focusing on the items you already own or a curated online shopping list.

Do I need to bring my own makeup brushes? I don’t have any brushes yet.

Absolutely, yes! Bringing your own makeup bag is highly encouraged. This private makeup class is a fantastic opportunity to perform a makeup bag declutter and get an honest product review. We will sort through what’s working and what isn’t, and I’ll give you expert recommendations on replacing products or simply using your existing items more effectively.
