About Emma…

From a young age, Emma has been interested in design and art. She was so committed that she traveled extensively to study in Sydney. After graduating in 2004, Emma has been doing makeup ever since!

In 2007, Emma added a Diploma of Beauty Therapy to her qualifications, taking her knowledge and understanding of the skin to the next level.

While working nationally for a paramedical skin care company, Emma discovered her passion for teaching makeup to others and went on to become an educator in the makeup industry.

Emma managed and taught at a private makeup college in Newcastle for 6 years. It was during this time that Emma’s need to continually improve and learn was fueled further. She started to do more courses and research to keep herself as up to date as possible with current trends and technology.

After conversing with numerous clients, Emma discovered that there was a true gap in the market - where people who wear makeup regularly don’t necessarily appreciate how to best apply it to suit their features. And so, Emma began providing private makeup lessons. Emma has taught those who are just starting to wear makeup in their teens, more mature clientele who’s needs tend to change or want a refresh of their application, middle aged clients who want to look their best, through to transitioning transgender clients who would like to feminise their face. Everyone is welcome to learn how to best apply makeup to suit their features. At the end of your lesson you’ll walk away feeling confident, educated and able to highlight the best version of yourself.

Emma’s business, Newcastle Makeup, specialises in custom private lessons, and makeup applications that celebrate your natural features. Every face is different and every person has different makeup needs. Emma takes the time to ensure she understands her clients and what they desire.

Can I bring someone else to my appointment? Emma’s little home studio is equipped for a one on one appointment. There is one more chair in the room, however any more than that and it can get a bit squishy.

What should I wear to my appointment? Please wear comfortable clothing. If you are getting you makeup and hair done, you will need a shirt that either opens at the front (zip or buttons) or can easily stretch over head. If you are a bride, consider wearing white so Emma can ensure you makeup balances well.

What do I need to do to my face prior to my makeup application appointment or lesson? Please come with no makeup on. Moisturiser and SPF is fine. Emma will prepare your skin when you arrive. Makeup removal takes up too much time that could otherwise be spent learning or putting to good use.

Do you require a deposit? Yes. A one time deposit locks in your booking. Please see the terms and conditions on the pricing page.
