UPDATES | Make-up and Hair Lessons Toronto x artistrhi

SPECIAL RATES AVAILABLE FOR A LIMITED TIME

It’s that time of year when we’re trying to keep up with our resolutions and work towards a best-version of ourselves.  What better way to complement our ‘new year, new-us’ efforts than with a make-over in the form of an artistrhi make-up lesson :)

I think the power of how we look on the outside and how it affects how we feel on the inside should never be underestimated.  I personally think it’s mutually self-reinforcing and that if you take the time to look put together on the outside (yes, even if it’s just 5 minutes!), you feel better on the inside.  These lessons are meant to be a best-reflection of you while learning some fun make-up and/or hair tips.

It’s pretty much assumed that as women it’s inherent that we know all about make-up and also how to apply it.  Take it from me – as someone who loves make-up – I’ll be the first to admit that I easily get overwhelmed when I walk into a place like Sephora.  Yes, it’s part sensory overload, but it’s also a lot of ‘where do I begin‘?  If you only have time for a 5 minute face or if you want to brush up on your smoky eye skills, one of the lessons below might be for you :)

Available sessions:

Smoky Eye Tricks
Is that 3-step guide on the back of your eyeshadow packaging just not cutting it when it comes to a smoky eye?  Yeah, for me neither.  Learn how to customize the smoky eye to your eye shape.  Also, learn tried-and-tested pro tips on what products to use, how the right brushes can make all the difference and how to make the look long-lasting.  Now, werrrrk.
Individual Cost:  $195 for 3 hours with your own product and tools.  $250 for 3 hours using my products / tools.  This lesson can be divided into 2 sessions so that you have time to practice in between and come back with questions.
[Group rates available. Maximum group size of 4 people]

5 Minute Face + Easy Day to Night Looks
You can get a make-over at a counter and spend tons of money because you like the final look.  But once you get home and attempt what the artist had done, it doesn’t quite look the same.  Yes, everything comes with practice, but if realistically, you only have time for a quick five minute face in the morning, a full make-up routine won’t work with your schedule (and those items will end up collecting dust!).  Learn quick tips that will help you look your best in a flash…like you’re awake when you’re lacking rest and like you’re ‘one of those’ always put-together girls.  Also, learn quick tips to take your look from day to night.  Make-up doesn’t have to be intimidating nor complicated and that’s the essence of this lesson.
Individual Cost:  $195 for 3 hours with your own product and tools.  $250 for 3 hours using my products / tools.  This lesson can be divided into 2 sessions so that you have time to practice in between and come back with questions.

Customized Beauty
Maybe you’re already a smoky eye pro, but want tips on how to fake better skin?  Or you’re good with skin, but want tips on how to highlight/contour and choose the right blush?  This lesson is completely customizable to what you want to work on – learn what you want!
Individual Cost:  $85 per hour  (one-on-one lessons only)

Fast Hair Fixes
We all have bad hair days, right?!  This lesson will make everyone believe otherwise. Easy cover-up tips for second-day hair and how to get voluminous hair, coveted curls, beachy waves, braids and sock buns – pick a couple and learn what you want.  Also great for make-up artists that want to up their hair game!
Individual Cost:  $195 for 3 hours with your own product and tools.  $250 for 3 hours using my products / tools.  This lesson can be divided into 2 sessions so that you have time to practice in between and come back with questions.

Improve Your Artistry*
Speaking of make-up artists, we need touch-ups too!  I’ve received lots of requests to hold a make-up artist workshop….so this one is for you guys!  We’ll practice what area you want to work on, whether it be a focus on editorial make-up or bridal make-up or other area skills you want to improve.  Also ask me (almost) anything and learn tips about the business of doing freelance…because they really don’t teach you that in school.  Right?
Note:  You must bring your own model to practice on.
*Previous make-up background suggested
Cost:  $350 for 4 hours (one-on-one lessons only)

Airbrushing*
Also for those with more of a make-up artist background, add to your skills repertoire with airbrush.  With its long-lasting and high-definition finish, airbrush is in demand whether it’s for talent on-set or for a bride on their wedding day.  Learn how to control an airbrush along with mixing the right colour, highlighting, contouring and applying blush using an airbrush.  Airbrush and materials supplied.
Note:  You must bring your own model to practice on.
*Previous make-up background suggested
Cost:  $295 for 4 hours, spread over 3 sessions

NOTE:
Please note the above are private lessons meant to enhance your personal or professional make-up skills.  They do not necessarily qualify you nor provide you with a designation to practice make-up professionally.

All sessions held from my location in downtown Toronto.  Rates above do not include HST.
