I did the 4 hour workshop which I found really informative and interactive. I didn't expect such a big focus on skin care, and would have rather 4 hours spent on makeup techniques, but was surprised to learn a few things about skin care I wasn't aware of (I considered myself quite well informed already as I regularly see a dermatologist). I felt comfortable to ask questions and that the workshop was not rushed. The makeup part of it showed a rather casual look and I would have loved to learn how to do a smokey eye and/or some tricky colourful eyes but this wasn't that kind of workshop. Overall I found it very informative and value for money as I had a deal voucher.

I attended the makeup workshop in geelong on November 2nd held by Ronnie B and Kylie. They were very helpful, informative and were very honest with their instructions. We learnt about skin, how what you put on your skin affects it, the process of how to best look after your skin and what not to do. This was a fantastic start to skin education. Kylie certainly had a lot of fantastic information to teach us, as well as all the ingredients to look out for that were both good and bad for us/our skin. Then it was make up time, how to apply and why to prep skin properly. The techniques were logical, and a lot easier than you think. I loved Roni's method of teaching, the way he taught us how to apply makeup and apply what we had learnt in the day with practice, practice, practice. The most important lesson I felt was given is that beauty is what lies within us, and that what we see is not what everyone else sees.
A big thanks to Roni and Kylie's very thorough workshop.

Very professional and competent of their knowledge within the industry. i left feeling informed and confident that I could achieve the results I was taught on the day. The class was very informative and easy to follow along and understand, I found both Roni and Kylie extremely friendly and approachable and answered all my questions, fulfilling all the needs I had wanted met. I can't wait for my free in home skin care consultation.

Ok so as a 'mature' woman who has gone most of her life without wearing a scrap of make up I decided now that my kids are older that it was time for me to have some fun so I purchased a coupon through Our Deal for a workshop. I also bought the whole make up brush kit to use on the day. I turned up on the day excited and ready to learn. Now let me tell you about Roni B.... to say he is the 'PERFECT' man would be an understatement ladies. Roni is not only smart (knows his stuff and tells you the truth without any BS) he is funny, well dressed and to top it all off he does 'make up'. what more can a woman want. I was lucky enough to be chosen to be his 'model' for the workshop and was amazed with the end result and how little effort, make-up and time was actually need to achieve a natural look. If your into make up or think you know about make up you will find this class informative, great fun and still learn some things you probably didn't know but should. Highly recommend doing this even just for a fun afternoon. I am now watching for more online coupon deals to do it again with my son's fiancée Thanks Roni for a great day... Loved it

Hey Gorgeous Susanne!
It was my absolute pleasure to open up a new world of makeup for you on Sunday and thanks for the "perfect man" comment... Be careful I might get a big head and become one of those Divas like Miss Behavin'! :)
Thanks again for the amazing feedback. So glad that you enjoyed yourself and learned at the same time and looking forward to seeing you and your daughter in law very soon!
Big Hugs
Roni B

I absolutely loved the workshop, it was fun & so informative. I've been a beauty therapist for over 20 years & I came away with so much more knowledge & information than I thought possible. It has really enthused me, both professionally & personally to continue doing what I love. Thank you Roni for your very entertaining & inspiring workshop, I'm so glad I came. Viv

Great session. Informal yet full of tips from an experienced team. Very good value for money. Didn't feel like we were pushed to buy any specific product, actually encouraged to cut down on products used. I particularly liked to focus on natural products. Will definitely go back for future courses and products, thanks ronni & shae

The 4hr skin and makeup workshop is an invaluable day for all ladies out there wanting great skin and flawless makeup. I've already started to apply my makeup differently resulting in a more attractive outcome and my lashes look thicker just by applying the correct way. Roni B & Shae are super nice and easy to get along with.

Last weekend I attended a 4 hour workshop in geelong. I have been a hairdresser for 10 years and have been wanting to get into makeup but didn't want to spend lots of money on a 16 week course if i wasn't sure that was what i wanted to do. As soon as i arrived everyone was lovely and welcoming!
The first half of the course was fantastic, we learnt all about the skin and how to know exactly whats in the makeup we trust and use everyday. That was definitely an eye opener! so much learnt in the first hour and a half!
Then we had a fantastic watch and learn with Roni, a really amazing make up artist who sure knew his stuff!From what professional brushes to use and what to look for when buying them. This really helped me as i have been wanting to get a set for a long time but never knew! I could just tell by looking around the room that everyone else was having a great time, the class size was small which was great because we could all see and he always had time to answer our questions! I really got a lot out out of it and never did it feel rushed or like we had to be out in that time space i think we ended up going a little bit over time which I didn't mind because all of our questions where answered! Thank you again. It was brilliant!

Hi Roni,

Thank-you for a fantastic day today at the Club Laverton workshop.
I believe I learnt many tips and tricks of the trade to enable myself to care for my skin and enhance my makeup abilities when applying my own.
The day was very informative especially the knowledge you gave us on why oil based cosmetics are not good for our skin and Roni you made us laugh so many times throughout the day.....you are a very funny guy. I would recommend this course to anyone of any age. I look forward to seeing you again when you do my home visit......well I hope its you.......lol.

thanks again, Julie

I went to one of the workshops last month and I learnt so much! Roni was so knowledgeable and very passionate about makeup. Both of them were very welcoming and made it a very friendly and fun morning!
