Glam is the look that pays in LA. The reception in Beverly Hills, the red carpet at the Beverly Hilton, the gala at the Skirball, the photoshoot in Hollywood — they all need a makeup artist who can build a full-coverage face that looks like skin in person and reads as glamour on camera. This 2-day workshop at MUA Salon teaches you that exact look.
Burcin Goksu has built her glam practice across 25+ years and trained makeup artists who now work full-time on weddings and shoots across Los Angeles. Day 1 is the theory and the cream layer — skin, contour, eye base, lash prep. Day 2 is models, false lashes, smoky eye, sharp lip, set spray, and a full review. Each student does two full glam faces with Burcin correcting in real time.
Students arrive from Beverly Hills, Brentwood, Pasadena, Studio City, and most graduates immediately raise their glam booking price by $100-$200. We are honest that two days is a focused workshop, not a master program. If you want to work weddings full-time, plan to assist a working bridal artist or shadow our team on real receptions for the next 3-6 months.

- Cream and powder contour layered so it reads on camera
