Cancan Theme
Flaunt the sassy glamour of a 19th-century Parisian cabaret dancer! To get the look, you’ll don false eyelashes, misty powders, smoky eyeliner and red cheeks for a high-color contrast. You'll see how cancan dancers transform themselves from normal ladies into glamorous showgirls, and learn the tricks they use to do it quickly before evening shows.
Marie Antoinette Theme
Go back in time to the baroque era to discover the makeup styles of women in Marie Antoinette’s royal court. Fashion makeup was a very complex business in 18th-century Paris, and even the most subtle changes in tone and complexion held hidden meaning to friends and suitors alike. Learn how to wear your makeup like the queen herself, and discover some of the blushers and foundations women in high society once used.
You’ll leave your 2-hour makeup class feeling like an expert (and a star).
