Discover the difference a makeup lesson can make

Learn how to create the perfect makeup routine tailored to you.

Specialising in a natural style of makeup for mature women Nicola is able to help you create a makeup routine suitable for your skin and help you select the right products and colours that flatter you.

We all see the changes in our skin, and as time goes on, we all need to make adjustments to what we are using. If you are unsure of what you should be buying, and the colours to use, a makeup lesson will be worth its weight in gold. A lesson will have you feeling like the best version of yourself, while still looking like you.

If you want flattering, flawless makeup, and the confidence to match investing in yourself is the way forward.

Even if you feel confident in your makeup application, you deserve to feel like you are looking your best. The right makeup can transform you and highlight your best features. When you learn which makeup styles, colours, and products suit you, you will be able to feel like the best version of you.

During a makeup lesson you will learn all aspects of a natural everyday look or a full evening makeup. You can even book a lesson which incorporates both daytime and evening looks. We will initially look at your skincare in all the lessons to ensure you are prepping your base correctly before makeup. Skincare is the pillar for getting your makeup to look amazing, applying smoothly, and lasting.

What Happens During A Lesson?

During the booking process, you will be asked what you would like to achieve; this will help the lesson be tailored to you. You will not need to have any makeup on hand, unless you would like your makeup bag to be reviewed. All the products used during the lesson will be from Nicola’s professional kit.

At the beginning of the lesson we will discuss your skincare, what you are currently using, and what products would be beneficial for you.

The perfect shades and colour tones of makeup will be selected, which enhance your eye colour and complements your skin tone. We will then begin with an eye makeup routine, which will be followed up with foundation, concealer, and all the finishing touches on the face. Your perfect lip colour will be selected based on what you like, but what will also flatter you.

The result - at the end of the lesson you will be wearing a beautiful, natural look that you can recreate.

After the lesson you will receive an email listing all of the products used, where you can purchase them from, and a guide which you can refer back to. You will also receive a 20% discount code for Look Fantastic to help you rebuild your makeup bag.

Makeup lessons take place in your home. Travel to Hampshire, Surrey, Berkshire, Wiltshire, Oxfordshire, Buckinghamshire, and West Sussex is included within the pricing of the lesson.

Client Testimonials

My lesson with Nicola was absolutely brilliant. I learnt new techniques and even things like how to hold the brushes and how much pressure to apply them was super helpful. The range of products was helpful and Nicola explained where to splurge and where cheaper brands are fine. She also gave me some tips to make the most of the products I’ve got. I’d definitely recommend to anyone else looking to get more confident with make up and save money by buying the right products and using them in the right way. Thanks Nicola! - Natalie

I received a makeup lesson with Nicola as a Christmas gift. The experience was great fun and also educational. Nicola is friendly and knowledgeable; she put me at ease and did a great job of explaining techniques and choosing makeup that made the best of my (aging!) features. The follow up email with lots of helpful advice and reminders about how to repeat the finished look, together with recommended products, was much appreciated. - Emma

I'm very happy with my new natural look makeup. It needed refreshing as I had become stuck with the same look which needed updating along with getting older. I have had lovely comments from friends. Nicola gave me some wonderful tips to move forward with. - Julie

Had a great make up lesson with Nicola. I was a bit stuck not sure what make up or skin care to use for my age but she was so helpful. I have bought all the products recommended, not all high end ranges either so affordable. I would thoroughly recommend to mature ladies looking to feel more confident - Diane
