Glam Lab Makeup Studios

Good class for basic techniques. Jacob was nice and friendly. The only thing I didn’t like was that they barely gave 10 mins of lunch break and there was no microwave to heat up the food etc. they will make you buy their product even if you bring your own brushes

I am torn writing this review.
I loved the class and what we learned — makeup application, hands on practice, and a business portion. Seriously, everything you need to know in one day about how to get started as a makeup artist. Jacob and Brittany were fantastic instructors. They were so hands on with everyone in the class, very informative and professional. Everything you would want in instructors.
The reason why I’m torn is because of the makeup quality. We only had a certain amount of time to «shop the student store» before we start applying makeup to our partners, so we didn’t even get a chance to try the makeup out before we commit to a purchase. I was excited to get this «pro kit» that apparently «valued» for so much money, for a fraction of the price. When I finally opened my kit, i was so disappointed to find that I just spent all that money on ELF products that I can get at target for a couple bucks. Going through the kit with a class mate, we bought the same kit and weren’t even given the same products. I got home and wanted to try out the eye shadow palette and the colors aren’t really that pigmented. If you want the color to show, man you will be applying and applying and applying just to get to color to start to show. I honestly felt that the make up was way over priced for very poor quality products. I wish I could have returned it all, or not even spent the money on it in the first place.

All I can say is LARA GREENE! Because of you i completely changed my opinion about Glam Lab. You are one amazing lady. She went out if her way to make sure that i was taking cared off. Lara, thank you so much, girl! Thank you again!

So it’s coming up on almost a month since I took this class back in September. The class was good, I really enjoyed it but the issue that I do have is with the communication with Glam Lab. I didn’t receive my certificate in the class itself but I was told it would be mailed to me. I have sent emails and to this day haven’t heard anything back. I am greatly dissatisfied and disappoint with the communication on their part. I understand that they might be busy at times but any reply is better than non at all.

Ok,
So I paid fully for the certificate and pro makeup discount card I was supposed to receive.
I received a email almost three weeks ago stating that I was going to receive my certificate and pro makeup discount cart.
I took the class a month ago. And I received nothing, no response, no update.
I’m very disappointed with this serivice.

The class was OK. I felt that the make up kits that they sold were over priced for the quality of products that were provided. The make up brushes cracked within the second day using them for some odd reason. A few of the products in my kit seemed used. (My kit was put together while I was getting a Make-​Up application) But they were «valued at over $ 100». The class was very informational although I can’t say that I learned anything new. Communication with Glam Lab SUCKS. Its like before I attended and paid for the class communication was good. But after I attended and paid my money I could not get a response from anyone in regards to my questions and concerns. Overall I enjoyed meeting new people and networking but besides that I was not impressed.

Took the class June 13^th! Perfect way to launch your career as a makeup artist! Whether you know nothing or have experience in the field, there was no intimidation. It was all easy and comforting, and the class had a great approach of letting you get a feel for how it would be in the industry in a fast pace environment. I felt so much more confident, I have expanded my knowledge, and I’m ready to take on the life after this class. The instructors were amazing and I’m so happy I got to meet Gol as well she was perfect and so helpful and enlightening!

I loved the experience of exploring my talent at the Glam Lab make up class. Met some amazing MUA’s !!!

Such an amazing experience weather you are getting started or a veteran make up artist.

Good start.

I really enjoyed my class with Glam Lab! I was super excited to work on an African American women and test my skills. It gave me more confidence in my skills and allowed me to see where my weaknesses are. The only reason I chose 4 or 5 stars because I just felt I wanted to learn more that seemed still pretty basic.

While I was able to build on my technique and found the class to be very informative, I was extremely disappointed with the communication from the main headquarters.

Throughout the registration process, there were a few details absent — e.g. how & when the $ 199 would be fulfilled, parking info for MUA’s travelling from out of town, (most significant for me) bringing with your own kit to class — the website specifies that this is optional. Also, the countless grammatical mistakes in both the website & emails sent by the Glam Lab team.
These details were brought to Glam Lab’s attention. The conversation that took place addressed all confusion and every question I had — THIS, I appreciated.
The Glam Lab team have been in touch with me since the day of class. The purpose of frequent communication between us was to address the disastrous choreography and execution of their, typically successfully-​run & highly rated, class.
I can assure future students that the falling-​out of our course was an isolated incident. I have brought forth to their attention many details needing to be improved upon — feedback that was greatly appreciated on their end.
No need to dive into details, knowing your experience will be similar to reviewers below. Just keep in mind, constructive feedback is helpful when approached with the ***right attitude***. If there is something you disagree with or would change, forward it on — it’s in your best interest and the interests of others to do so.

For anyone wanting to take w makeup class and get certified, this is definitely the best of the best out there! The instructors really take their time to teach you the best techniques.

GlamLab was such an instructive class. As someone who is new to this business I was really impressed with how patient and helpful all of the instructors were. It definitely gave me a great base knowledge to take forward for a career in this field. I will definitely be attending other classes held by GlamLab. It was also a great environment to meet some other girls just starting out in this field.

Great time in the class, definitely learned some new techniques! The instructors are great and its awesome to be certified at the end of the class.

This was a great class. Definitely basic but for those who are looking to learn or go back to the basics, this is a great place to do it. Jacob and Hayley were great about giving great tips and helping us make the makeups look perfect. Highly recommend it to anyone looking to learn basics or polish their skills.

I definitely wrote a good review for this place, but after still not hearing back from anybody about my certificate I take my review back. Somehow someone forgot to send in the certificates of the class I took plus after emailing glam lab about it nobody decides to reply to my email inquiring about the certificates after I give my name and class date. I flew all the way from North Carolina for this and it’s been almost a month to the class. This is so not professionalism.

Awesome class and instructors! Looking forward to working with everyone here in the future

The Makeup 101 class wasn’t what I expected at all… in a good way! All three instructors were friendly, professional, very successful makeup artists, who were there to answer any question with complete honesty. I thought we were going to learn tons and tons of contouring. (Ugh! You know the pictures out there with the faces having a ton of highlighter and contouring powder on them looking like something out of a horror movie) With this class it wasn’t the case! What we learned was actual beauty makeup. We learned how to sculpt the face and really enhance that person’s natural beauty. I would totally recommend this class. It was a great one day workshop. If you’re new to makeup or are a working freelance artist you’ll still learn something from these instructors. I’m definitely going to look into their other courses. :)
