Learn professional makeup

Shades of Perfection™ is a Philadelphia based, media makeup and digital photography company providing services to the public for use in the television, film and fashion industry. With over 10 years of experience in makeup artistry, cosmetology and beauty, owner, Lisa Kocharian has developed a 2 Volume, Media Makeup and Business Course.

Shades of Perfection™ is a comprehensive course that is available as an immediate download or in CDROM format.

Volume One: Comprehensive Media Makeup Course shows the student how to analyze different faces and overall looks to be accomplished for tv, film and fashion. What is included in this great two volume set is all you will ever need to ‘'jumpstart yourself' into a full operating business at a fraction of the cost of most high priced media makeup schools!!!

A good Hollywood media makeup school costs between $3500 to a 'whopping' $15,575 not including of course airline tickets, and hotel stay. The time commitment varies from one week to 24 weeks and the programs usually do not include food and other day-to-day expenses. This first volume teaches analysis of different facial features, media makeup application techniques, lighting in different mediums, colored stage lighting techniques, differences in film type, with camera filter guides in conjunction with the use of makeup.

Volume Two: Comprehensive Media Business Course will provide the student with a step-by-step guide to creating a successful media makeup business. Offering marketing skills from contact information to event strategies, preparing your model at photo shoots, while communicating effectively with photographers. Also what to bring along in your kit to your appointments, what to charge, and most importantly how to receive payment effectively.  Our comprehensive guide will allow you to work effectively and efficiently at home with sample business forms, contracts, invoices, and other recommendations to simplify and organize your day to day activities. These two volumes are comprehensive and give you a look into the world of media.  Upon a passing grade on our test, you will receive Certification that entitles you to industry discounts and will help to jumpstart you into a profession that is unique and gratifying.

Additionally, our students learn how to create a stunning portfolio, develop a marketing strategy specifically designed for their region and medium, receive tips on advertising, designing your own website and more! Step-by-step options are included to becoming a full fledged corporation, information on Union work vs. Non-Union, trading names, logos, tax write offs and copyright protection. If you purchase both volumes together, you will receive our FREE ‘‘Extra's Packet’ that includes all forms, price sheets, and practice sheets.

These Two Volumes are worth in excess of $2,400 dollars. You can have this course and get your business up and running in less than a month's time.  Not to mention, saving thousands of dollars on expensive media makeup artistry schools, time, travel, hotels and nasty hidden costs. Our course starts out at $250 dollars and typically will end up at $698.00 dollars depending on the ‘Price Package’ you choose. AND, as a bonus for purchasing both volumes you will receive a ‘free gift’ valued at $60.00 dollars. If you decide you only want to purchase Volume One at this time you still will receive a gift from us valued at $15.00 dollars. We have created 4 convenient ‘Price Packages’ for you to choose from depending on ‘your’ particular situation. Please check out the ‘‘eCourse’ link under Online Shopping for options and payment plans.

Shades of Perfection™ recognizes the need for creating a convenient, ‘one of a kind’ product for ‘you’ the consumer at a substantially reduced rate! We invite you to compare our pricing with other major media schools. We have no hidden costs, and our return policy is clearly stated. Our ‘Excerpts Demo’ will give you a wonderful peak at the beautiful images included in our easy to understand instructional text. Our course uses state of the art 'Flipbook Technology', for ease and a hands on approach. You will begin to notice the extent and professionalism of ‘'your’ content immediately.
