the ultimate course for makeup beginners
as seen in:
you're tired of wasting time and money trying to figure out makeup
Let me guess...
you want to learn how to wear makeup that works for you & your lifestyle.
There are so many makeup tutorials and influencers out there who will show you how they do their makeup... in a room blasted with artificial lights and sponsored products.
Entertaining? Sure.
Educational? Not so much.
What you need is real life, practical, and inclusive makeup education!
introducing...
A self-paced video course all about everyday makeup! Learn how to shop for and apply makeup that suits your specific features and lifestyle... in just 5 days.
Instead of watching generic (and potentially biased) makeup tutorials by self-proclaimed beauty gurus, learn with a professional makeup artist and educator with a "less is more" approach to makeup and beauty.
this is exactly what i need!
Learn makeup in 5 days
imagine confidently applying your makeup each day in minutes
Which option sounds better to you?
Option 1: Take in an overwhelming amount of content from social media, blogs, and magazines, then try to tailor all of that generic "advice" (sponsored content) to your specific beauty needs.
or
Option 2: Take a streamlined online course that teaches the fundamentals of skincare and makeup and gain a lifetime understanding of how to select the right beauty products and colors for you.
Do you know your skin type and which products your skin prefers?
Do you know your skin undertone and which colors work best on you?
Do you know how to play up your eyes based on their unique shape and color?
Do you know where to apply your products to achieve the look you want?
nobody is born knowing all of this, but I believe that, but
If you don't know the answers, it's totally okay!
makeup is a skill worth learning!
Let me ask you this...
I was a professional makeup artist for many years. I worked on dream projects that took me around the world. And I loved making my clients and models feel beautiful with their makeup. I still do.
But during my time working as a makeup artist, the desire to teach my clients how to do their own makeup grew and grew.
I have taught many makeup lessons, and I hosted workshops & parties throughout the U.S. and Europe. In 2020, I offered online makeup classes.
I published my book, Be Your Own Makeup Artist in 2018. Now, it's sold and distributed in over a dozen countries (and counting). In 2020 it was translated in German and became cosmetology school curriculum!
My secret sauce? Most of my clients don't want to know how to do a cut crease or contour like Kim...
They want to know which skincare products to use, and in which order.
They want to know their undertone and how to find their foundation match.
They want to know their face, eye, brow, and lip shape and where to apply complexion products.
They want to know what colors work well for them.
They want to know how to hold a brush... and which brushes they need.
Or if they should use a beauty blender...
You get the idea.
“Makeup has the power to help us show up confidently, it's our most intimate accessory.”

makeup is not skin deep...
it's so much more
Makeup has always had a special place in my heart. As a child and teenager, makeup was the glue between my mother and me when my parents divorced.
As a young adult, makeup gave me the confidence I needed when I was battling severe acne. Makeup artistry gave me a career when I felt lost in my life.
There's no one-size-fits-all makeup application. And while there's lots of well-meaning beauty advice floating around the internet... most of it has done more harm than good.
The beauty industry, like most consumer-facing industries, capitalizes on our insecurities.
Think about it: that's why there is always a new product launch or another celebrity getting in on the action. Everyone wants a piece of the pie... and you are the pie!
BUT. When you know your skin type and which products and colors work for you, you'll know automatically if a product is going to work for you. No more wasted time and money. And no more FOMO!
This course won't teach you everything about makeup in 5 days. But it will teach you everything you need to know about makeup. You'll be confident in your everyday skincare and makeup routine, and that's what really matters for most of us.
But don't just take my word for it...
an online course that helps you:
define your unique makeup style
determine your skin type & undertones
identify your face, eye, brow & lip shape
become an educated makeup consumer
develop an everyday & day-to-night makeup look
& so much more!

learn makeup in 5 days
Day 1
defining your makeup style
How can you learn how to do makeup if you haven't actually defined your preferred look and style?
This module teaches you how to pinpoint an everyday makeup style that you will use as the basis for the course (and well beyond the course).
Day 2
All things skin
Artists don't apply paint to a raw canvas, and we shouldn't apply makeup to a bare face. In day 2, we're going over skin prep for makeup and undertones.
When you know your skin type and undertone, you'll know exactly what products (and formulations) to avoid and/or use. Module 2 is foundational sans foundation.
Day 3
complexion BASICS
In this module, I outline the five elements that make up the "complexion" makeup category: foundation, concealer, blush, bronzer, and highlighter.
By the end of this lesson, you'll know how to mix and match these elements to create an everyday makeup look that works for you, your face shape, and your lifestyle.
Day 4
All About the Eyes
Did you know that too much eyeliner can make your eyes appear smaller? Or that our eyes are asymmetric, which means we might have to do both eyes differently?
In this module, we'll identify your eye shape and talk about why certain types of eye makeup will work for you (or not work for you), and we'll analyze which colors to use on the eye using basic color theory.
Day 5
Perfect Lips
So many lipsticks, so little time. But finding your "perfect" lipstick shade isn't really as hard as it seems.
In this module, I'll walk you through all of the different lipstick formulations out there and share why you might want to use one over the other. I'll also help you identify your perfect nude, everyday, and bold lip shades!
makeup workbook & journal
The 65+ page digital makeup workbook and journal guides you through each day of the course. This goes into even more detail than my book does!
daily video instruction
Makeup is extremely visual and dimensional. In these videos, I will break down complex makeup techniques and explain how to execute them on your own face at home!
24/7/365 access
You'll have course access for an entire year. Take as much time as you need to work through each module, or go through the course multiple times if you'd like!
course support
Inside the course, you can ask questions, leave comments, and learn from one another. This course is designed to be both collaborative and interactive!
here's what you get when you sign up!
digital course return + refund policy
Makeup is a deeply personal journey. I have worked tirelessly over the years to put together an easy-to-understand course that effectively teaches you everything you need to know about the basics of makeup and skincare.
Each lesson in the course, including the introduction module, contains a lot of valuable content. Therefore, even if you only participate for one day, you'll have access to tons of value, as well as the entire framework for the course.
For this reason, I do not offer refunds, exchanges, or transfers. Please review the course syllabus above to make sure this is a good fit for where you are in your makeup journey and what you want to learn.

✓ Understood your colors & where to apply them!
✓ Could apply an everyday makeup look in 5 minutes!

What's the Catch? What else are you trying to sell me?
WHAT TYPE OF MAKEUP DO YOU TEACH IN THE COURSE?
Learn Makeup in 5 Days is not designed or intended to teach you elaborate, fanciful, full-face makeup. There are enough of those types of courses, books, and makeup tutorials out there doing that.
Learn Makeup in 5 Days is designed to give you a basic, yet foundational understanding of how to shop for and apply makeup in a way that works specifically for you. By the end of the 5 days, you will know what products and colors work best for you and how to apply them for an everyday, classic makeup look.
WHAT IS YOUR REFUND POLICY?
Because I've condensed so much makeup education into 5 days, every single day is jam-packed with knowledge and downloads.
The welcome module itself is like a mini course!
Because of this, refunds are not possible.
If you have questions about what you will get out of the course or want to know more, please reach out to me. I can help you decide if this is the course you need right now.
I'd also encourage you to check out my Instagram, Blog, and Podcast to get a taste of what my teaching style is like.
HOW LONG DO I HAVE ACCESS TO THE COURSE?
You will have 24/7 access to the course for one calendar year from the date you purchase it.
Call me crazy, but I believe that if you pay to learn how to wear makeup in 5 days, you shouldn't have to rush through it or lose access after you go through the lessons one time.
I do suggest downloading the resources to your device so that you have access to them offline.
DO YOU TEACH CONTOURING, BAKING, AND WINGED LINER?
I do not teach contouring and baking in this course. Those are theatrical makeup effects and they aren't good habits for the makeup beginner.
I do however, outline in my book why/when/who may want to consider contouring and baking and what exactly it is so that you can make an educated decision as to whether or not these theatrical makeup techniques suit your everyday makeup style.
While I don't deep dive specifically into how to achieve a winged eyeliner (this requires more than 5 days of practice if you're a beginner), I do go over different eyeliner techniques that pair nicely with your eye shape. You might discover that winged liner is not even right for you!
WHAT IF I HAVE QUESTIONS DURING THE COURSE?
I've enabled discussions in the course, which I monitor and respond to regularly.
You're also welcome to email me your course-specific questions at natalie@nataliesetareh.com which I will answer during business hours.
HOW DO I ACCESS ALL THE COURSE MATERIALS?
Once you sign up, you will be prompted to create a login for the course. As soon as you log in, you'll have access to all of the course materials: all of the video modules, downloadable workbooks, and bonus items!
This is a self-paced course that is designed to be done in 5 days. But, of course, the timing and pacing is totally up to you. If you'd rather do it all in one day, you can do that. If you want to go through one module per week, you can do that, too. Whatever suits you and your schedule!
IS THIS COURSE GOOD FOR PROS?
If you are a budding makeup artist who doesn't know anything about makeup and want to learn the basics, yes — this course is the perfect launchpad.
You do not need to spend thousands of dollars to learn basic makeup from makeup schools.
If you are a pro and want to hone and refine your skills, check out my pro shop here.
5 DAYS SEEMS WAY TOO FAST TO LEARN MAKEUP, DO YOU HAVE ANY OTHER OPTIONS?
Because this is a self-paced course, you are in the driver's seat. If you have the time to do the lessons each day, great. If you don't, feel free to dive in whenever you have time to do so. You get to decide!
However, this course is intentionally designed to cover the basics in a way that will not overwhelm beginners. I promise, even if you have very little experiences shopping for or applying makeup, you aren't going to get left behind.
DOES THIS COURSE INCLUDE 1:1 COACHING?
This course does not include 1:1 coaching. If you are looking for high-touch, 1:1 makeup coaching, please check out Create Your Signature Look.
You can, however, ask me questions as you go through the course. I will be monitoring my email inbox and personally responding to all questions during my regular business hours!
WHAT'S THE CATCH? WHAT ELSE ARE YOU TRYING TO SELL ME?
Unlike other makeup classes that are subtly (or blatantly) promoting their own brands or services, I am not sponsored by any outside brands and have remained brand-agnostic since starting my business in 2014.
There's absolutely no way I would feel comfortable teaching you makeup if I was sponsored by a brand or receiving free product because I would feel obliged to use those products or promote them in my educational offerings.
I work with products at all price points. I do not want you to go into debt buying makeup, nor do I want you to use sub-par products.
The lessons for days 2-5 include a PDF download that lists my favorite products in those categories, none of which are sponsored in any way. You can rest easy knowing that I'm not here to sell you anything except makeup knowledge. It's just what I believe is right!
After years of just being a makeup artist, blogging about makeup, creating {embarrassing} makeup unboxing videos (I am SO not a YouTuber), and answering makeup-related questions 24/7, I realized there's a big problem.
There's a clear lack of real-life, practical, accessible, inclusive, and unbiased makeup education inside of the $532B beauty industry.
I'm here to change that!
I teach people how to shop for, apply, and wear makeup in a way that works for their life. I truly believe that makeup, when applied well, can transform us in so many ways.
Come learn with me!
so nice to meet you!
