One to One and Group Makeup Lessons


View Gallery

All Makeup lessons are held at my studio in Cropwell Bishop, Nottinghamshire.  I do a bespoke one to one lesson where I ask you to bring your makeup and brushes and we go through everything from a natural look to full evening glamour. Also looking at basic skin care to create the best canvas for makeup application .I have a large collection of makeup from No7 to Dior & Charlotte Tillbury . I will share with you all my tips and techniques I've learnt in my 24 years in makeup.

It is fun to and share the experience with a friend or family member for a pair lesson and I can accommodate up to 4 in the studio . For larger groups or hen parties I suggest a maximum of 12 in a more relaxed setting- please contact me for pricing. 

I tailor each lesson to the Individual clients, whether wanting to learn the latest looks, finding the products that work for your skin, tone and style, or ladies simply wanting to look their very best. In my 24 years in makeup I have worked on thousands of faces and all ages, from young top models to Grandmothers & women of all skin tones. I have learnt that the secret of beautiful makeup that lasts is understanding what products work for you and where to apply them, to achieve that flawless finish you desire. I will help you to enhance your features, conceal any flaws and listen to your individual makeup needs, establishing what products you need to create those desired looks.

    I provide a step-by-step tuition demonstrating on one side and you re creating on the other. Showing you different brushes and products as well as incorporating as much of your own makeup as possible!
    Leaving you with the skills to positively apply & recreate your tailor made makeup looks that lasts.


    A recent testimonial:

    'I'd searched online before for make-up lessons and classes but never came up with anything that looked worth while. Then, as a surprise, my partner booked me a session with Ali and it was all I'd hoped it would be and more. From the moment I arrived, Ali was warm and welcoming. I felt right at home with her and honestly like I'd known her forever. We got chatting straight away and, as I took pretty all the make-up I own, Ali got busy rummaging through my collection to find the best colours and tones for my skin. I felt like Ali listened to my needs and tailored the session to suit, guiding me on how to create looks using my products and brushes that I'll now be able to recreate at home. I liked how Ali applied products on one side whilst explaining and then passed the brush over to allow me to have a go too. By the end, I'd had a day look and a night look to die for and a sheet to help me remember all the products we'd used during the session. I couldn't recommend Ali any more highly. A 10/10 experience. Thank so much Ali'
