In the world of beauty, the foundation of stunning makeup isn’t just the pigments and brushes — it’s the skin beneath. That’s why I’m delighted to share that I’ll be attending (and inviting you to) an exclusive class: Skin First: The Art of Makeup-Ready Skin Radiance, presented by Topical Skin in Nutley, NJ. The event is designed for beauty lovers and aspiring pros who are passionate about mastering the art of radiant, makeup-ready skin.
Why Skin Matters
We’ve all seen it: a flawless makeup look that still appears to “sit on top” of the face. The secret behind a seamless finish isn’t just technique — it’s skin that’s prepped, balanced, and luminous from within. This class dives into the science and strategy behind a flawless makeup base — exploring skin health, barrier function, ingredient integrity, and how they all impact how makeup performs.
What You’ll Learn
How to layer skincare so the result is a smooth, glowing canvas for makeup.
Hands-on training in professional skin prep techniques and how to optimize product layering for radiance.
A deeper understanding of why great makeup starts with great skin — not as an afterthought.
Why I’m Excited to Attend
If you know me, you know I’m obsessed with skin — it’s the heart of everything I do as a makeup artist. I truly believe that when your skin is healthy and radiant, makeup becomes an enhancer, not a mask. I’ve been loving Topical Skin products lately for their clean, high-performance formulas that nourish the skin while protecting its natural barrier. Their focus on ingredient integrity and skin health aligns perfectly with the message behind this class — that beauty begins with balance and care.
That’s why I’m so excited to learn, grow, and bring new techniques back to my clients. The connection between skincare and artistry is what makes this class so special to me.
