makeup workshops

Level Up Your Glam with our all-Inclusive makeup workshops!

Welcome to our makeup workshops, where beauty meets artistry!

If you’ve ever wished you could do your own makeup, join us for a face-to-face, hands-on makeup session that will teach you how to enhance your features. Step by step, you’ll be guided through the makeup application process to achieve your desired look.

Whether you’re a complete beginner or looking to advance your skills, our live, hands-on workshops are the perfect way to learn. You’ll receive expert guidance on techniques and have all your questions answered.
Focusing on mature skin, have you ever wondered how to make your skin glow? We address the impact hormones have on the condition of ageing skin and how to adapt makeup application techniques to suit these changes. Topics include brightening the skin, covering pigmentation, and addressing under-eye discolouration.

Understanding how to adapt your makeup application due to changes in your skin can be challenging, but we will guide you through the importance of skin preparation before applying makeup. You will learn about the products we use to achieve a flawless and radiant look.

By the end of this workshop, you will walk away with a better understanding of your skin type and the confidence to apply your makeup correctly.

Feel free to bring your own makeup and brushes; however, we will also supply makeup on the day.

We will be holding group workshops throughout the year, so please express your interest, and we will keep you updated on where and when the workshops will take place.

This hands-on workshop focuses on learning how to apply your own makeup, with step-by-step guidance tailored to each person’s features, style, and skill level. I will take you through everything from skin prep to choosing products, while sharing professional tips and techniques to help you achieve your desired look.

Tailored for all makeup enthusiasts, it focuses on women with mature, ageing skin. The session begins with skin preparation and is followed by a makeup demonstration. You’ll learn how to create both day and evening looks. After the demonstration, you’ll have the opportunity to create your own look, guided by an expert.

my number 1 pick everyday of the week
If I’m in Mary’s chair, I can relax and know I’ll be taken care of and I’ll open my eyes feeling confident. For someone who doesn’t wear much makeup I love everything she creates, and we always have such a fun time. Mary’s my number one pick every day of the week

the most beautiful makeup i've ever had
The most beautiful makeup I’ve ever had. Mary has done my hair and makeup for many events from red carpets, the logies, birthdays and for television too. Her skill set is impeccable- I’ve never had so many comments on my makeup-

highly organised and professional
Mary did my makeup as well as my three sisters for my niece’s wedding.
She did a great job of tailoring the look to each of our personal style, colouring and outfits.
It was one of the hottest days of summer, our makeup stayed looking fresh and beautiful the entire day and night. I didn’t have any sweating or melting makeup. Given we were dancing and celebrating, it was amazing. We all looked fabulous. Mary is very calm, which I really appreciated. She is organized and professional and I highly recommend you book her early.
