I've worked with Michelle a number of times, she's done my makeup for a few events and photo shoots, always with an immaculate result. Earlier this year I did her "do your own makeup 1:1", and it has transformed how I do my own makeup. After the course I now feel confident to apply, I even did my own makeup for my wedding a couple of weeks ago!! Strongly recommend anyone who wants to feel confident in applying makeup, to do this course. Less

such a great job with the soft glam! lasted the whole night and looked amazing! got so many compliments on how nice it looked! wasn’t cakey and was really breathable so it felt nice and light but still covered what I wanted! Less

I had a 1:1 session with Michelle & it was amazing! She taught me so many make-up tips & tricks as well as helping me choose which products are best suited to me & my skin. My finished make-up look was just what I wanted. I would thoroughly recommend a visit to Michelle! Less

I am so happy i decided to attend a one on one make up coaching session with Michelle! Michelle was so patient and easy to follow along with instructions. With getting close to 50 years of age all of the tips and tricks have given me confidence in applying my make up with confidence from day to night looks :) The brush set is gorgeous and being all labeled for each use, makes my make up routine a breeze. Thanks again Michelle i would highly recommend! Less

Michelle did my make up recently for an event I was running. She did an exceptional job, my make up looked amazing and more importantly I felt amazing. Michelle was a pleasure to be around and I loved the whole experience. Highly recommend and I will be booking a make up lesson with her very soon. Thanks Michelle you are a gem x Less

I had a 1:1 make up lesson/ colour match with Michelle recently, and it was Amazing! Michelle really knows her stuff and is so good at explaining techniques and application tips! Making make up easy, enjoyable and a beautiful experience! Highly recommend 🙌🤩.. the products are high quality full of goodness!and I can’t wait for them to arrive! Less

I had an absolutely lovely morning with Michelle and a Crew of 4 other beautiful women. I can absolutely honestly say that my make-up skills were archaic and they have now been changed forever. What Michelle taught me was mindblowing! Love her style and now I thoroughly enjoy applying my own make up in such a way that it enhances my features best. Thank you so much Michelle xox Less

Michelle made the makeup lesson fun and so informative. I learnt so much and gained more confidence in applying makeup. Loved the makeup brushes she gave me and the video links of my lesson will be so beneficial when I need reminders. The end result of my makeup lesson was natural and I used a lot of the products I already had and felt comfortable trying new products without the hard sell that you can sometimes get from makeup chain stores. I would highly recommend Michelle. Less

Awesome experience. Michelle is knowledgeable and appropriate for what you want to do vs trying to sell you something. I appreciated her advice and approach and i would totally recommend her for anyone looking to update their makeup look or even just starting from scratch. I loved how thoughtful and encouraging she was. Less

Michelle was referred to me as the best in the business when it comes to natural, make the most of your features, great to work with talented make-up artist. When I was recently having some professional photos taken, I had the pleasure of meeting Michelle and have her work her magic on me :) I am someone who loves make-up, wears it every day and would consider myself pretty knowledgeable but I was thrilled that I decided to treat myself and leave this occasion to the expert. Michelle was super professional but lovely and down to earth. She kept me informed all the way, asking for input and feedback and I was super happy with the results. I would highly recommend using Michelle's services - she did a fabulous job and I wouldn't hesitate to use her for my future special occasions. Less

Can't recommend Michelle enough she has a wealth of knowledge. Her attention to detail is outstanding. Her makeup & skincare is the best I've ever had on my skin I won't go anywhere else. Thoroughly enjoyed my make up lesson highly recommend to all. Michelle is also so down to earth & welcoming. Definitely recommend booking a make up lesson you won't regret it! Less

I have played around with make up for a few years now, watching YouTube tutorials, trying to get my make up to look natural and applied correctly. Having a one on one session with Michelle was awesome. Michelle thoroughly guides you through all products and advises on how to apply to the correct shape of your face. Having this one on one session also helped me step out of my comfort zone, wearing eyeshadow (which I had never done) and also wearing a bold lipstick where I'm use to only wearing lipgloss and very light shades such as nude coloured lipsticks. Michelle is professional and very open. I highly recommend to see Michelle to help with any of your make up issues, help to extend the comfort zone and feel more confident. Less

Michelle is amazing! She does a great job & makes you feel really comfortable. I have had Michelle do my make up for a Photo Session & also a 1 on 1 Make Up Training Lesson . I learnt so much from my lesson & it was worth every cent! I Look forward to having Michelle do the make up for my wedding later in the year😊 Less

Michelle has such great knowledge and really knew what my skin needed. I felt very well looked after and love the products that she recommend me to get. Less

All about the eyes and the flawless base workshop was so much fun and very informative. Michelle is great with colour matching and made me feel very comfortable. We used Issada make up throughout the workshop and I was very impressed with how this brand made my skin feel and look. My skin gets very oily throughout the day and the mineral velvet cream foundation paired with the baked powder, works great with my skin and looks very natural. Less

I had the best time ever, Michelle, you are so incredibly talented and professional! For make-up workshops, products and one-on-one lessons, I highly recommend Michelle Olwagen Make-up coach. The space she creates is comfortable and clean. I have been to her 6 times already, she's my make-up go to lady. Less

I highly recommend taking advantage of the makeup courses offered by Michelle Olwagen. I recently attended the Base and Eye Workshop and it was absolutely fantastic!! The workshop covered various topics including understanding my skin tone, selecting the correct primer and foundation, and learning techniques to conceal blemishes and dark circles. We also explored day "eye" makeup looks as well as more daring dark and shimmer "eye" makeup looks for the evening. It was a delightful experience to engage in discussions and share this learning journey with both my friends and new acquaintances. Thank you Michelle for this awesome learning experience. Less

Absolutely love the make up lessons very informative and the Issada make up it goes on beautifully looks and feels natural. No heavy make up feel like other brands i have used. The first brand i have used that doesn't make me brake out Less

I love Michelle! I have absolutely no knowledge about makeup, zero makeup skills, and Michelle explained everything so well, so clear! One training session with her and I feel super confident now. Thank you! Less

Michelle was amazing, makeup trial was awesome to get a good plan for the day and to take what i loved and what she knew would work well and bring the two together. Michelle just made everything easy and made me feel absolutely stunning on our big day. Looking forward to doing some lessons with her as well. Absolutely recommend Michelle!! Less

Michelle was amazing, very friendly and did the most amazing job with my Daughters make up for her school ball, I would highly recommend Michelle for anyone wanting special occasion make up😀 Less

Was a great mum and daughter session. It was very easy to follow and we learnt a lot of new techniques, skills and tips on how to do our makeup. Michelle was very patient, enthusiastic and encouraging. I would highly recommend her coaching sessions Less

My first ever make up class and wow 🤗 did I love every minute of it! 🙌🏼 I learnt simple but helpful techniques, tricks and hacks that made doing make up so much easier and understandable for a leaner like me. I came away with so much more confidence in myself and my ability to work with make up. The environment was super chill but very engaging and I will definitely be coming back! Keep up the good work Michelle 👏🏼😁 Less

Michelle did my makeup for a professional headshot photo shoot I had done. She was able to help me out super last minute, which was so appreciated and amazing! Michelle was friendly, professional, and was able to take direction from my minimal (note: nonexistent) instruction for what I wanted! The end result: fantastic photos! My makeup looks really natural and polished, light and subtle. I felt beautiful and it shows in the images. Thank you Michelle. You did a great job, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you to others for their make up needs! 📸 Lulu Visible Less

Isada Protein Mascara is great. Lasts all day and doesn't come off if you rub your eyes. Easy to clean when washing your face. Will def buy this again! Less
