Closed on Wednesday & Sunday.

Do you feel confident applying your own make-up? Do you feel confident applying your own make-up? 
No? Want to learn? ... Book a consultation. 

Express Consultation (per person) | $80.00 | 1 hour
Designed specifically for those who want to learn a certain technique, or to perfect something that may already be known but can’t quite get right.  This is not a full consultation, we will only concentrate on the specific technique, for example: winged liquid or gel eyeliner – we would work on application of winged eyeliner, nothing else – no other make-up application.  This consultation can be used for anything from  learning how to apply eyeshadow to get a ‘Smokey Eye’ look; how to correctly apply blusher or lipstick; how to apply false lashes, etc. The choice is yours.

Full Consultation (per person) | $150.00 | 2 hours
Designed for those who would like to learn how to apply a full face of make-up correctly. These consultations are great for someone new to using make-up, or someone who feels a little daunted by all the products.

The consultation includes a simple skin assessment, an overview of your current cosmetics to assess whether they are correct for your skin type, and advice on what products would be best suited to your skin type and tone.  Step-by-step application of your choice of make-up (daywear, smokey eye, or a look you’ve seen in a magazine). If its something you’ve seen in a magazine or online, please bring the picture with you. I’ll also answer any questions that you may have. 

All consultations are one-on-one as I have limited space. This also ensures that you each get the individual attention that you need, and that you learn as much as possible.

$34.80 + courier fees for a brand new paperback.
Order online:  https://www.ramblingrose.co.nz/product/the-secret-to-eye-catching-nails/

The Secret to Eye-catching Nails contains tips, tricks, and step-by-step how-to guides, with 53 designs for you to learn from. Novices needn’t worry, because the chapters flow from one into the other, using what was learned in the previous chapter to help create designs in the next, and most are really simple to recreate.

From understanding colour, colour schemes and mixing colours, to tools of the trade and various nail art mediums, this book covers it all. It includes working with pigments, chrome, creating ombré colour fades, various stamping techniques (as well as a few TikTok hacks), how to create different types of French manicures, use nail art foils, decals and glitter, as well as how to hand paint nail art. Debbie shares what she’s learned from experience, in the hopes that it will help encourage novice and new graduate nail techs to think outside the box and do unexpected things on their own nail art journeys.
