TIRED OF LEAVING THE MAKEUP COUNTER FEELING CONFUSED OR OVER SOLD? HERE'S WHY A PERSONAL 1:1 MAKEUP LESSON DIFFERS...

Emily Chantal, Suffolk and Essex makeup artist, sits in a bright room, holding makeup brushes. She touches her hair, looking content. Vanity with lights in the background.

1) HONEST RECOMMENDATIONS ACROSS MULTIPLE BEAUTY BRANDS

Instead of being told you need everything from one brand, my makeup lessons include honest recommendations from both premium and drugstore brands. After years of freelancing, I’ve tried a lot of makeup, every brand has its hero products and a few you can happily skip!

2) WORKING AROUND WHAT YOU ALREADY HAVE IN YOUR MAKEUP BAG

I invite my clients to bring their makeup bag and brushes with them so I can see what they already have. Sometimes they are missing the right brushes or they may have the perfect product but in the wrong colour. Let’s fill in the gaps for you!

3) PROFESSIONAL MAKEUP ARTIST VS STORE SALES ASSISTANT

Whilst there is some great staff on makeup counters (I used to work for Clinique & Dior) not everyone is a trained makeup artist and sales targets often come first.

4) CALM, PRIVATE STUDIO WITH NATURAL LIGHT VS BUSY STORE WITH HARSH ARTIFICIAL LIGHTING

My studio is a light and peaceful space close to Woodbridge and Ipswich in Suffolk with countryside views where you can feel safe and relaxed in a learning environment without distractions.

5) FOCUS ON EDUCATION - LEARN WHY PRODUCTS WORK FOR YOU

It’s not just ‘here’s what to buy’. It’s learning why certain products work for you. When you know the reasons behind a product choice; texture, undertone, formula, finish etc you’ll make better decisions every time you shop in the future.

6) TAILORED APPLICATION TECHNIQUES FOR YOUR LIFESTYLE

Maybe you’re a busy mum with just five minutes to feel brighter, or someone who’s constantly commuting or in meetings and needs a long lasting, polished look. Whatever your day looks like, your new everyday makeup routine can be built around it.

7) STEP BY STEP GUIDANCE YOU CAN ACTUALLY FOLLOW WITH VIDEOS TO REWATCH AT HOME

You’ll receive easy to follow guidance and videos of key moments on your phone to rewatch at home so you won’t feel lost or forget what we covered.

8) A SESSION THAT FEELS EMPOWERING NOT OVERWHELMING

No pressure, no one size fits all recommendations just personalised guidance tailored to your colouring, features and lifestyle. Giving you the knowledge and techniques to recreate your look at home with confidence.
