  • A one on one makeup lesson with Serenity will give you the confidence to recreate makeup on yourself for an everyday look, or for when you are going out somewhere special.

    Serenity has over 20 years experience in the industry.  She has taught numerous women of all ages and skintones how to create an everyday look for themselves by using tips and tricks that makeup artists use in the makeup industry.

    Have you ever wondered how to get glowing, more beautiful and youthful looking skin, or how to achieve a stunning smokey eye? Maybe you have a darker skintone and find it hard to get the right foundation match or to get rid of darkness under the eyes. Serenity can show you simple techniques that will take less time but with better results. Bring out the makeup artist in you and book a makeup lesson with Serenity today!

  • From skincare to lip colour, step by step, Serenity will show you how to apply makeup on one side of your face, while you copy on the other side of your face. By doing this, it will help you remember the steps when you are doing it yourself in the future.

    Serenity will provide you with a face chart so you can write down all the products she uses and the order to do them in.  This way, you have a guide to follow if/when you need it in the future.

  • A makeup lesson with Serenity will take up to 1.5  hours for a natural day look and up to 2 hours for a more glam/ evening look. If you want to spend longer on a lesson, or if you want to try different makeup looks, then you can discuss this when making your booking and we can book in the extra time needed, (this will cost extra), or you can ask Serenity if you can book longer if she has time on the day to extend the lesson. 

    We also offer makeup and hair lessons at the studio which take up to 3 hours, and the ultimate makeup lesson which is 3-3.5 hours with Serenity at your home.

    Please also allow 10 mins for setting up and packing down the makeup kit if Serenity is coming to you.
