Makeup By Speshal
Love Love Love Terri and the Makeup Training Academy!! I really feel like I’m leaving here with the technical,creative,and business sides of the makeup industry. I came in to Level 1 in the summer knowing nothing about properly applying makeup and leaving Level 2 feeling really confident in myself and my work. I’m so glad that I made the choice to study with her! She’s so nice and the studio is too cute. If I could do it over I would!
