Shake up your makeup regime
If you are feeling that your look is a bit tired or dated and you are stuck in a rut, makeup artist Nicola McGeorge is now offering one to one classes, where you can learn the very tricks and techniques from an industry professional makeup artist.
30% of women have worn the same makeup since they were teenagers admitting that a fear of 'getting it wrong' or 'looking silly' kept them sticking to what they knew. There's comfort in the familiar. Every few years, especially as women transition into a new decade, it's a good idea to update your beauty habits with new colours, techniques and products.
Let me ask you a question. Do you still use that electric blue Rimmel kohl pencil you bought during the 80s? Love the idea of contouring, yet always end up with two orange stripes running down the side of your face? Are all your MAC makeup brushes sitting pretty on your vanity unit, but you can’t tell the difference between your 217 and your 225? Maybe it’s time for a makeup lesson to update your techniques and refresh your makeup bag.
During a makeup lesson I gently pull you out of your rut by showing you, one-step-at-a-time, how even minor updates to a beauty routine can be face-changing. You will leave your makeup lesson fully made up and take home the skills to reproduce your look at home, with your own personal makeup chart.
Back to basics
Having been a beauty and wellness journalist before I became a makeup artist, I understand the power of good skin care. 70 percent of a great makeup look is down to the skin prep. If you prepare the skin correctly, you will not only be able to get away with less makeup, but you will also achieve a more flawless application. We start the lesson with a look at your skin care routine and I teach you a few beauty insider tips on keeping the glow all day long.
Together we will then delve into your personal makeup bag and go through which products still work for you and where you may benefit from additional items. Using your own products, such as that Charlotte Tilbury eyeshadow palette you bought on impulse, (plus any makeup materials from my own kit,) I will teach you how to best apply them, taking you from a day to evening look.
The newbie
For young adults who have just started dipping their toes into the world of makeup it can be confusing on where to start. With the constant bombardment of beauty campaigns and insta-makeup tutorials it can be hard to navigate through them and find what works for you. I will help you to pick out the colours and tones that best fit your style and features.
Age is nothing but a number
As women mature, their cosmetic needs change. Your skin tone, hair colour and even your face shape will change, and your makeup products and techniques need to adapt with it. In later life women tend to focus on their perceived flaws, choosing to cover up with thick foundation, concealers and layers of powder. This can end up emphasising problem areas and make you appear older. I believe in the less in more approach. My aim isn't to change you into someone you do not recognize, I want to help you be the best version of yourself, drawing attention to the areas you are more confident with.
Taking it to the next level
For budding makeup artists or muas who would like to refresh certain skills, or learn a new technique I offer different classes from bullet proof bridal that will withstand our humid summers to how to apply undetectable film makeup suitable for the latest HD technology.
Book a makeup lesson for yourself or with friend, they make great birthday, Christmas or gift ideas.
