“I highly recommend Sam for makeup lessons. She took the time to understand what I was looking for and really tailored the lesson to my level of comfort and the amount of time I have to spend on makeup. She followed up with suggestions for products a different price points and her brush set is really lovely. She even nudged me gently out of my comfort zone to try some colors I won’t have picked for myself. I’m already planning to book a follow up in the spring! Thanks Sam!” Kate

Sam gave the knowledge but also the confidence to create a look. we worked with colour which has always scared me, but sam reassured me I could do it and i did! I am so grateful for the advice and will def be using Sam again.” Nana

“I had an absolutely lovely lesson with Samantha. We planned my wedding makeup look together along with a chat about skin care overall. Samantha was really diligent and careful looking at what I already owned and only recommended products which were missing or when I asked for them. She listened amazingly about the type of makeup I like to wear and really tailored what we picked to match. She did a great job of demonstrating techniques and then helping me copy them. She has a lovely coaching teaching style. Her eye for detail and for colours was a real art and gave me some great tips for everyday as well. The 3 hours flew by and I have loads of notes, tips and recommendations. I think she will have saved me so much money as I would have carried on buying and trying out products where I now feel like I have a more targeted way to look for some products to enhance to my collection.” Emily
