I am offering a two day airbrush makeup workshop on November 15th and 16th in Denver. It is from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. both days. It will be held at the Colorado Executive Club Building, 1776 S. Jackson Street, Conference Room B, Denver 80210. The building has free visitor parking and plenty of street parking. You may book the class online by clicking on "Book Appointment" and then on "Workshops". The class will start at 10:00 a.m. and end at 5:00 p.m both days. Lunch will be from 1:00 to 2:00. Students are on their own at lunch.
The two day airbrushing workshop is $700.oo and includes your complete Dinair Airbrushing Kit. I chose to use the Dinair Airbrushing kit because it is the least expensive way to start and they have the widest selection of airbrushing colors. I am a retailer for Dinair and I am in no other way affiliated with them.
The kit contains everything you need to get started.
- 8 Glamour Airbrushing Shades .25 oz.
- 1 facial moisturizer
- Compressor, airbrush gun and hose
- Adapter and plug
- Set of eyebrow stencils
- Eyeshadow guide/stencil
- Airbrush cleaner
- Instructional DVD
You are required to use your kits during the class. Additional airbrushing colors will be available to you during the class for practice. You will be able to order additional airbrushing colors and accessories after the completion of the class.
If you are not able to pay the full $700.00 at once, you may save your spot by putting down $350.00 and then the remaining $350.00 by November 12, 2009. Your spot must be reserved by November 9th.
The workshop will start with a demonstration of a complete airbrush makeup application (foundation, eyes, brows, blush, lips, etc.). Then students will be given their Dinair Airbrushing kits. We will start out with some simple airbrushing exercises to teach you how to hold the brush, distance and pressure. After lunch, we will break into teams where students will practice on each other.
The second day of the class will include more practice on each other as well as fantasy makeup, paramedical and tattoo cover, and airbrush tanning.
A professional makeup artist must know airbrushing in order to be successful. It is mandatory for high definition television and film.
Airbrushing is:
- Hypoallergenic
- Smudge proof and water resistant
- Wears up to 18 hours
- Leaves a poreless matte finish on the face
- If you tear or cry, it will dry right back to its original state
I have been airbrushing for many years and even taught it at Cosmix Makeup Academy in Fort Lauderdale. I personally wear it everyday.
This class is open to:
- Existing makeup artists who want to stay up to date with the latest skills.
- Those looking to go in to makeup artistry.
- Aestheticians and cosmetologists who are looking to get an edge above their competition.
- Women who want to improve their appearance and interested on airbrushing their own makeup.
If you have any questions about the class or airbrushing, please feel free to give me a call at 303-995-6977 or email me at donnakelly@mac.com.
Hope to see you there!
