Be careful of counter lessons, as any dept store counters tend to be a bit pushy on the product and less about the lesson. TBH you'd be better at getting independent lessons. And then later on down the track getting a lesson in colours etc (which is what they mainly discuss at dept stores).

Napoleon have great lessons but the only course I knew about was their $3k one, so I'm not sure about a $95 one.

Mecca is awesome too. But for true non sales pitchy lessons you're best off going through a community centre, or google "personal make up lessons" but try and steer clear of anywhere that is offering them when they are also trying to sell their own product or you could just end up in a major sales pitch.

Have fun and let us know how it goes!
