Self-Makeup Course Sofia — Private Lesson

This personalised 1-on-1 self-makeup course in Sofia is designed for women who want to feel confident and beautiful without relying on anyone else. Whether you are a complete beginner or looking to refine your technique, you receive my full attention, knowledge, and guidance for 2.5 focused hours.

I am Vessy Mineva, a professional makeup artist with over 16 years of experience. I will teach you techniques tailored to your face shape, skin type, and personal style — not a generic routine from a tutorial.

This course is designed for women who want to feel confident and beautiful without relying on anyone else.

What does the makeup course include?

  • Skin care — reviewing your skincare routine and recommendations for improvement
  • Feature analysis — we identify which areas to enhance and which to soften, working with your natural structure
  • Skin preparation — products suited to your skin type for a smooth, lasting base
  • Foundation and concealer — techniques for natural coverage without a mask-like effect, and finding the right colour match
  • Brow shaping — choosing the right form and product for your face
  • Eye techniques — eyeshadow blending, eyeliner, and lashes for both soft daytime and expressive evening looks
  • Contouring and highlighter — balance and definition without overdoing it
  • Blush — colours and placement for a fresh, healthy glow
  • Lips — from natural everyday tones to bolder accents for special occasions
  • Day-to-night transition — how to transform a daytime look into an elegant evening style with minimal changes
  • Setting techniques — ensuring your makeup lasts throughout the day
  • False lashes — from €5.11 / 10 лв.

We work with your own products so you can replicate everything at home. If you need new products, I will recommend specific ones suited to your budget and needs.

Who is this course for?

This course is for you if:

  • You want to learn to do your own makeup but do not know where to start
  • You have products at home but are unsure how to use them to their full potential
  • You want to look polished every day without spending hours in front of the mirror
  • You are preparing for an event and want to create an elegant look on your own
  • You feel stuck in the same routine and want fresh inspiration
  • You want to master specific skills — shadow blending, eyeliner, lash application

I explain everything simply, without jargon. The goal is not to turn you into a makeup artist — it is to give you the confidence and skills to enhance your natural beauty every day.

Tip from Vessy Bring your own makeup bag to the course — we work with your products so you can replicate everything at home. If anything essential is missing, I will provide it and recommend what to add.

How the private makeup lesson works

  1. Meet — we discuss your goals, daily routine, and the looks you want to achieve. I assess your features and review your products
  2. Learn — I demonstrate each technique on one half of your face, explaining the reasoning behind every choice
  3. Practice — you replicate the look on the other half while I guide and correct in real time
  4. Personalise — you leave with an individual list of product recommendations, techniques, and tips tailored specifically to you

Why choose a private course over a group class?

Most makeup courses in Sofia are group-based — one instructor demonstrates one look for everyone. But every face, skin type, and style is different. With a private lesson, every technique is adapted to you:

  • 16+ years of experience — hundreds of clients across Sofia, deep knowledge of how different skin types, features, and lifestyles affect product and technique choices
  • Premium products — Dior, Charlotte Tilbury, Make Up For Ever, Natasha Denona, Anastasia Beverly Hills, Hourglass. I can show you the difference between mass-market and professional products in practice
  • Hands-on approach — no lectures. You learn by doing, with real-time guidance and corrections
  • Private 1-on-1 format — no group pressure, no rushed demonstrations. Every minute is focused on you
  • Follow-up support — questions after the course are always welcome

Every technique is adapted to you — no group pressure, no rushed demonstrations. Every minute is focused on you.

Tip from Vessy After the course, practice your new skills within the first week while the techniques are fresh. If you get stuck on any step, reach out — follow-up support is always included.
