The Curriculum

Six Things Every Woman Should Know How to Do.

Most people who feel uncertain about makeup were never shown the right foundations. This class covers them in order, applied to your specific face. Not a generic demo. Not a tutorial filmed on someone else. Technique built around you, from start to finish.

01

Your Face, Your Skin

Understanding your face shape, skin type, undertone, and the products that will actually work for you. This is the foundation everything else builds on, and most tutorials online skip it entirely.

02

Skin Prep and Base

Moisturiser, primer, and foundation application specific to your skin. Coverage, finish, and formula matched to you, not a generic tutorial. Concealer placement, setting, and how to make base look skin rather than mask.

03

Brows

Shaping, mapping, and filling in a way that flatters your specific face. Natural brows that frame. Done in 90 seconds once you know how.

04

Eye Looks

From a clean and wearable everyday eye to a full glam look for events and occasions. Blending, liner placement, and how to make the crease work for your eye shape.

05

Contour and Highlight

Placement mapped to your face structure, not a YouTube face. How to make it look sculpted and lit, not painted. The right products and brushes for a clean result every time.

06

Lips and Finishing

Lip liner, lipstick and gloss application. Setting spray technique. The finishing steps that add longevity and polish to the complete look.

Choose Your Format

Come Alone or Bring the Whole Group.

Two ways to book your self makeup class in Dubai. One intimate, one made for sharing. Both taught by the same artist with the same attention to your individual face.

One-on-One Session

Just you, your face, your brief.

A fully private session focused entirely on you. Before you begin, you share what you want to learn, the occasions you are preparing for, and the products you already own. The session is built around that brief. You apply everything yourself while the technique is shown step by step. Product recommendations matched to your skin and budget at the close.

Who This Is For

One Class. Many Reasons to Take It.

Complete Beginners

You have never done this before.

No experience, no kit, no idea where to start. The self makeup class is built for exactly this. You leave knowing your skin, your tools, and how to apply a look from scratch.

Everyday Learners

You do makeup already but want to do it better.

You have a routine but it feels inconsistent. Something never quite lands right. A session tailored to your face uncovers what to change and why, without having to rebuild everything from scratch.

Occasion and Event

You have something coming up.

A wedding to attend, an event, a photo shoot, or a special occasion. You want to look a specific way and do it yourself. The session is built around that look.

Pre-Wedding Functions

You are a bride preparing for your own functions.

Mehndi, haldi, engagement, bridal shower. Many brides want to handle their own makeup for pre-wedding functions and have a professional handle the wedding day itself. This class covers exactly that.
