my story
behind make it jess
Before makeup, I was a full-time grade 7 and 8 teacher. I loved teaching, but I wanted a more creative life, so I traded math lessons for makeup lessons. Makeup gave me the freedom to express myself in ways a classroom never could, but I quickly realized I missed the joy of teaching others.
Now I get to combine both things I love. I teach makeup step-by-step to anyone who wants to learn, from total beginners to glam lovers. Whether it’s a private session, a bridal shower, or a fun girls’ night, my goal is to help you feel confident, creative, and glam.
