When you're new to make-up, mastering a handful of basics matters far more than buying every product on the shelf.

• Prepping the skin: cleanse, moisturise and apply SPF before anything else for a flawless base.
• Brushes and applicators: wash your tools regularly because dirty brushes ruin even the best products.
• Light hand: apply small amounts of foundation and concealer, then add more only where needed.
• Framing the face: fill in your brows softly because they frame the whole face.

A private make-up tutor watches your technique in real time and corrects bad habits before they stick.

In Durham, expect to pay about £13/h for an hour of make-up tuition.

The cost depends on:

• Your skill level and learning goals
• The artist's expertise and professional background
• The package you choose (one-off masterclass or regular sessions)
• The teaching mode (in-person or video call)

Many tutors offer package discounts for booking multiple make-up lessons.

Picking up make-up skills from scratch is achievable for anyone with a structured approach and regular practise.

• Foundation routine: nail the base first because everything else builds on a smooth, well-prepped canvas.
• Eye make-up: practise simple neutral eye looks before attempting smokey eyes or bold colours.
• Colour and contour: finish with a lipstick or gloss that complements your overall look.
• Hands-on practice: repeat each technique on yourself or a friend until the movements feel natural.

Booking a private make-up tutor speeds up your learning curve and saves you from costly product mistakes.
