Korshub's take

Thirty techniques, one craft

This course contains 30 video tutorials covering every surface of the face: color theory, foundation, contouring, brows, eyes, and lip work across different product types. The structure is progressive—you start simple and move toward complexity.

Realistic about time: 10 hours of video, but 20–60 hours of hands-on practice (ideally repeating each technique 2–3 times) to truly master the work. The course includes a workbook and a curated list of professional-grade products used in the demos. By the end, you'll enhance any face and express creativity through color and form.

About this course

This course on professional makeup will help you master many important techniques that professional make-up artists use to create contemporary looks in their everyday work. After completing it you will be able to enhance your own or other women’s beautiful features, disguise minor faults in one’s appearance and express yourself creatively.

The course consists of 30 video tutorials and is designed so that you can master all the techniques gradually, starting from relatively simple techniques and then moving on to the more demanding techniques.

From this course you will learn how to:

choose your tools, take good care of them, and use them for best results;
use color theory principles when choosing colors in make-up when working with different people;
use different types of foundations to make skin look flawless;
contour and create the illusion of depth on the face and a more sculpted look with makeup;
slightly adjust the shape of eyebrows and enhance their beautiful shape with makeup;
correct various eye shapes and master many eye make-up techniques that will make eyes stand out;
work with different types of lip products to correct lip shape, create lasting results, make them stand out, or remain more subtle (to make eyes look even more expressive).

It will take around 10 hours to go through all the video tutorials. Remember, to acquire new practical skills, it is crucial to apply everything you learn in practice. It might take you up to 20 hours to do all the makeups at least once on yourself or on your model(s). However, for best results, it is recommended to do each of the makeups at least 2-3 times. Therefore, mastering all the techniques of this course might take you up to 60 hours.

In addition to video tutorials, you’ll also receive a comprehensive workbook and a full list of high-quality professional make-up products that are used in the demo lessons and that are highly praised by beauty professionals due to their impeccable quality.
