Growing up, Asian faces were rarely anywhere in the makeup world — not in the tutorials online, not in the magazines, not in the classrooms where artists are trained.

Even though Asian communities are everywhere around the world, makeup schools barely touched Asian features. Hooded eyes and monolids were skipped. Asian beauty standards — glass skin, softer definition, a different balance of the face — were treated as the exception to Western trends rather than a standard of their own.

So artists were left to wing it on real clients, and Asian women were left hoping the artist in front of them knew what to do.

This course closes that gap. It’s inclusivity in practice: real techniques on nine real models across eight ethnicities — Laotian, Chinese, Vietnamese, Korean, Burmese/Mon, Indonesian, Fijian/Indian and Japanese — so every artist can work with confidence, and every woman can trust the result.
