About Me

I’m a friendly, patient, and hands-on makeup instructor who believes learning should be practical, confidence-building, and enjoyable. My teaching style is very interactive — I guide you step-by-step and make sure you understand every technique, not just copy it.

I have over 14 years of experience as a professional makeup artist, including 11 years working with M·A·C Cosmetics in Nigeria as a Senior Artist. This has given me strong expertise in working with all skin tones, face shapes, and a wide range of makeup styles — from soft everyday looks to full glam transformations.

I enjoy working with beginners, aspiring makeup artists, and anyone looking to improve their personal makeup skills. Every lesson is tailored to your level, so you can learn at your own pace and build real confidence.

My goal is simple - to help you master makeup in a way that feels easy, professional, and uniquely yours.

At a time when beauty products are bursting with toxic elements for ourselves and polluting for nature, I decided to revolutionize my cosmetics by passing.

Learn with 2-3 basic ingredients (essential oils, vegetable oils, common natural ingredients) to compose your beauty products, with the rules of use for conservation and storage.

This course includes a theoretical part and a practical part to make 1 skincare and 1 face serum.

Relaxing massage
Reducing and toning massage
Exfoliating massage
Waxing all different parts of the body

Massage helps to reduce tension in the skin and connecting tissues to allow the blood to access your skin easier. The dilation of surface capillaries will give your skin a healthy glow as blood flows more easily, improving colour and tone. Your skin texture can feel softer and supple as increasing circulation delivers nourishment and hydration. This nourishment regenerates your skin, enabling it to retain moisture easier and replace older skin cells with newer and healthier cells – replacing dry skin with vibrant skin!

Exfoliation – massage helps to remove skin impurities

Regular massages help to reduce the accumulation of dead skin cells on the skin’s surface. Desquamation improves your skin’s health and appearance, tightening pores, improving skin texture and giving your skin a brighter glow. Massage assists skin gland production, allowing your skin to sweat out and eliminate impurities such as uric acid. The friction and motion of massage push built-up oils out and away from the pores enabling unhealthy elements in the blood to be excreted. Nutrients and moisture from the massage lotion can then be more easily absorbed helping you to look and feel healthier.

Scar tissue reduction

After surgery, your skin heals using scar tissue which manifests by rising above the adjoining tissues. Massage can help to realign scar tissue to run with the skin’s contours and tissue fibres allowing the scar to join neatly to the surrounding skin. Receiving massage during the recovery stage can speed up healing and reduce pain and itching.

Massage for anti-ageing – making you look younger

Stress can wreak havoc on your skin, making you look and feel run down. If we continue to hold stressful facial poses, wrinkles can develop along the direction of the contracted muscles. Massage can release tension and relax the muscles, reducing the appearance and development of wrinkles. Increased blood flow and waste excretion help cell regeneration, supporting your skin’s resistance to infections and disease – leaving your skin feeling smoother and looking younger.

Tighten skin after pregnancy or weight loss

Massage can help you to bounce back after pregnancy or weight loss by aiding skin regeneration. By improving the elasticity of your skin, massage increases blood circulation allowing nutrients to replenish tired and stretched skin. Stretch marks can heal easier when dead skin cells are removed, opening up the pores and allowing your skin to breathe. As the cells regenerate you can notice the skin tone improve and your stretch marks reduce.

If you want to try massage therapy to look and feel better with healthier skin, consider giving it a go. Massage also benefits the muscles, joints and whole body to give you a spring in your step to go with your youthful, healthy and vibrant skin!

FAQ
Is online format effective in makeup coaching?
Absolutely! I dare say online is even more effective, as it requires a little more active involvement from the trainee side. You receive tons of exclusive personalized PDF notes, including photos of yourself with highlights on where to apply specific products. So, you won't forget anything. Some lack of trying out all my cosmetics together is not significant, because the primary goal of coaching is to learn application skills. This can be done using any basic kit.

How many products should I have for an online coach session?
If you have 5-8 products and a few brushes, you most likely have all you need for learning. Reach out to me to see if your kit is enough!

Should I buy any products before coaching?
Please consult with me before buying anything! The idea of coaching is that I analyze your needs and adjust your current makeup routine so that it works for you better. So, it is more about a deep conversation and building your skills rather than a whole cosmetics market exploration. It's nearly always better to buy something after a consultation (unless you have no cosmetics).

What if I have no cosmetics but want to meet online?
There are a few options.First, we find out what cosmetics work in your situation. Then you get some of these products, and we call the second time to learn how to use them. Alternatively, you could have me purchase a basic kit for you. A higher fee applies, but this is ideal if the session is a gift for someone with no cosmetics yet.

If you have a lot of cosmetics and want to learn how to use it, check out my makeup bag consultation!
If you don't have a lot of cosmetics and don't want to buy unnecessary items, check out my shopping trips!

The 3 courses of biology, chemistry and cosmetology interact with each other. Basic notions in chemistry are essential to understand cosmetology whose active ingredients act on certain biological functions.
These 3 courses each cover the basic concepts you need to know to enter the first year of a scientific course or a BTS MECP.
It is also a refresher for those who have already completed a scientific year.

Not just makeup. Transformation.

This course is about building characters through makeup. Learning how to design, not just apply. You’ll develop strong technique while exploring how makeup connects to performance, costume, lighting, and storytelling. We’ll work from the full picture down to the smallest detail.

Core makeup techniques (from beginner to advanced)
Product knowledge: how to choose what actually works
Skin prep, hygiene, and professional practice
Color matching and facial structure
Theatrical makeup for stage and performance
How lighting and costume affect your design
Creating characters through makeup
Designing looks based on prompts with clear intention

This is a hands-on, creative space! You’ll experiment, take risks, and build looks that mean something. Not just look good. All levels welcome. Whether you’re starting from zero or want to push your artistry further, you’ll leave with stronger skills and a clearer creative voice.
