Learning in person versus social media
With how many influencers there are teaching makeup looks on YouTube and TikTok, it can be hard to navigate who to watch, especially if you are looking to develop your own talent and stand out. It can be enormously inspiring to witness an expert makeup artist or influencer applying makeup beautifully and effortlessly onto themselves in a video. But try following along and applying to yourself, or even other people, and you’ll find this to be much harder to do without a strong foundation of skill learned from a one-on-one virtual or in-person experience.
Ann Marie’s individual or small classes allow for an optimal student-to-teacher ratio so that she can give personalized instruction on what application techniques may or may not work with specific skin types, tones, and facial structure. You’ll also learn the most up-to-date application techniques, essential skills, and product knowledge for working photo shoots, high-definition broadcasts, video, live events and performances, weddings, salons, and more.
Over the course of her career, Ann Marie has inspired countless clients and aspiring artists to share in her passion and love of makeup and looks forward to helping you achieve your own success.
