$158 | 90-minute private session with professional makeup artist
Additional time: $58 for every 30 minutes (subject to availability)
This personalized 90-minute, one-on-one makeup lesson is designed to teach you how to confidently apply makeup on yourself. Each session is customized to your individual features, skin type, and personal style.
Makeup lessons are offered Monday through Thursday, with limited Friday and Sunday availability by advance booking. Makeup lessons are not offered on Saturdays.
Clients may choose the focus of their lesson, such as everyday makeup, work or professional looks, evening or going-out makeup, or age-appropriate makeup for high school or college. To make the most of the 90-minute session, we recommend selecting up to three key areas or features to focus on. Additional time may be added on the day of the appointment, if availability allows.
Hands-on instruction is provided with professional guidance throughout the session. The artist will demonstrate techniques on one side of the face while you apply makeup on the other. You may choose to work on the side that feels most comfortable for you—typically the side that matches your dominant hand (right-handed clients often prefer the right side, left-handed clients the left).
Clients are welcome to bring photos of makeup products they currently own or bring their makeup with them for reference. Personal products will not be applied during the lesson, but comparable shades, textures, and placement techniques will be demonstrated using professional products.
All makeup, tools, and brushes are provided for use during the lesson. Blended Society makeup brush sets are available for purchase. Full makeup products are not sold in-studio at this time.
Clients are encouraged to arrive with a clean face to maximize lesson time. Makeup removal can be provided if needed and will be counted toward the scheduled session time.
