Learn the Techniques

Private Makeup Lessons in St Johns County, FL

One-on-one, hands-on, at your own mirror

Private makeup lessons from Vanessa's Makeup are one-on-one, hands-on lessons in St Johns County, FL where you do your own makeup with Vanessa beside you. You learn the techniques you want, on your own face, with your own products.

You Hold the Brush

Vanessa demonstrates one side, then you do the other. Watching is easy. Repeating it alone the next morning is where most people get stuck, so the lesson is built around your hands, not hers.

You leave with notes on every step.

Pick the Skills You Want to Learn

Choose what matters to you: a smooth base, brows, winged eyeliner, a soft smoky eye, a long-wearing lip or an evening look you can do yourself. Vanessa is a Sephora Certified Makeup Artist who started her career at Ulta Beauty, and she teaches the way she works: natural first.

What a Lesson Covers

  • Your goals first. Which techniques you want to learn and the looks you want to recreate.
  • Your own kit. You practice with the products you already own, so the lesson carries over.
  • Step by step, side by side. Vanessa shows each technique, then coaches you through it.
  • Notes to take home. The steps and shades written down for practice later.

$75 per hour. Depending on the distance, an additional travel charge may apply.

Before You Book a Lesson

Is a makeup lesson good for beginners?

Yes. Lessons start from where you are, whether that is learning a basic base or a specific technique like eyeliner.

Do I need to buy new products for the lesson?

No. You learn with your own products. If something is working against you, Vanessa will tell you why.

Can teenagers take a private makeup lesson?

Yes. A lesson is a good way for a teen to learn a fresh, age-appropriate look. A parent can be present.
