The course is excellent! I'm really loving it and the trainers are so great and are really patient and supportive. I think once I'm done I'll go back and do the air brushing course and hopefully next year get my Cert IV.

Sambi - That look is so pretty on you, I'm really liking that lippy. I reckon bright pinks just pop on someone with dark hair.

Where in Melb is MUFE sold? I'd love to check it out and hadn't heard of it before. What are the prices like? Oh god hopefully not too much...

 

[sambibabe]

simplyenchantin, when are you going to post the pic of you wearing that va va boom Russian Red?

rockin26, thank you! Really my lippy today isn't that bright. It is the same colour as my top, but somehow the pic makes fuschia lippy

One of MUAs at the local store has light blonde hair and she wears dark lippies.. Absolutely stunning!

There is no MUFE in Melbourne, unfortunately.. The only store that sells MUFE in Australia is Media Makeup in Adelaide (Media Makeup | | Make up courses and school in Adelaide, South Australia; also cosmetics, make up education). They don't have everything though. That's when I order stuff from Sephora or a friend in Singapore

 

[CatsMeow]

Yep - MUFE is only available in Adelaide in Australia. Who would've thunked it! (given we don't have krispy kremes, pro stores and the like!)

Oooh. Airbrushing. I think I'd be lethal with that.

Rockin26, are you doing Cert III?
I'm going to do Media Makeup's Photographic Makeup & Styling (which is Cert II but 5 months longer as it incorporates more catwalk, wedding, photoshoot makeup techniques). It'll be 1 year part time in total; I have to work fulltime at the same time. BOOOO!

I'm doing Cert II at the mo and it's 2 nights a week and all day Sunday, and I'm looking at a short course at VUT for basic hair tech so I can broaden my services. Mine is part time too but only for 9 weeks and I'm sort of getting used to the extra load. The only thing that's draining is the school is pretty far from home so it's allot of driving and during peak hour which in Melb is crazy! Thank goodness I can plug my iPod into my car!

1 year wow! The Cert IV is only 6 months but it's 3 nights a week and all day Sunday so I guess it takes up allot of free time, then you have the out of school prac too....

This conversation kinda intrigues me ..

I'm the sort of person who likes to learn about everything that interests me, and I'd love to properly study make-up and techniques etc on a more professional level - though I have absolutely no interest in doing it for a career... (... and I've got no idea how I'd manage to figure out the time for it working a full-time job ... )

On the downside though, I think I'd be way too embarrassed to actually go ahead and do something like this though in a class ...

hrm .. now I'm having flashbacks to when I was getting into cars heavily and contemplates courses on mechanics stuff :S .. wow i'm strange .. lol

Ahhhh well .. I suspect I'm just gonna have to live with playing around with cosmetics I purchase and reading Specktra, books n stuff ...

When I got the email notification of this post, I had to think about who jrm was.. That's how long you've been away, Jenna!

I think there is nothing wrong with you doing the classes, even you are not planning to make a career out of it. Who knows? You might change your mind lol..

I studied Fashion Design, but it is pretty useless now that I am not working as a designer anymore.. But I still find what I learnt in the classes really handy!

You would have nothing to be embarrassed about in a MU Course JRM. The girls in my group are amazing and all just want to learn and get better with their technique. Last night the girl working on me was having the worst time with contouring but we just kept going until she got it, I was her biggest cheer squad cos I really wanted her to get it.

Some girls in the group want to go pro and others are just happy to pick up some great tricks and will do makeup on the side as a creative outlet. I would highly recommend a course to anyone who's interest in makeup is more than just a passing thing.

Girls I'm really starting to get upset...

I think my Stereo Rose MSF has gone walkabouts...

 

[rockin26]

^^^Oh noooooooooo....... Who would do such a thing! You can't deprive an addict of her product!!

I really hope it isn't so and that it shows up Jen!

I have a feeling it will turn up Jen! Fingers crossed..

 

[MrsMay]

yeah...there are several different scenarios...

It could have been brought upstairs by an employee and it's sitting on their desk or somewhere... or it could be with the people downstairs...

Or the aust post employee could have left it down in the foyer and someone else has stolen it from the foyer... :-(

I'm hoping that it turns up soon....

I WISH I had the all day Sunday option! A class duration of longer than 2.5 hrs would be really helpful I reckon, especially if you were on a roll with learning something!

At Media Makeup, the classes only run 2 nights per week 6pm - 8:30pm, so there's only 5 contact hours per week, hence 6-7 months for Cert II (add 4 months or so for the extra bit). The fulltime classes are Mon - Thurs, 8:30 - 1pm (i think), so it's 3.5 months in total. GRRR. Wish I had a weekend option!
