Courses & training
Makeup course in Lucerne
Learn makeup on your own face with your own products. Three levels from Basic to Pro, available one-to-one, in group tuition or as a workshop. Rocío Furger teaches personally; her salon opened on Zürichstrasse in October 2006.
Three levels, one for each starting point
Basic. For anyone with seven minutes in the morning who wants to look fresh, not heavily made up. We establish skin tone, coverage and sequence, where colour helps, how brows open the eyes and how to cover redness without building a mask. You leave with a routine you can repeat the next morning.
Advanced. For those with a basic routine who want more: day and evening looks from the same products, multi-tone eyeshadow and subtle contour. We also work with mature skin, where eyelids, fine lines and dry areas require different textures and application.
Pro. For people applying makeup to others for work, photography, stage or as a route into makeup artistry. It covers working on another face, hygiene, brushes, light, bridal and event makeup, and correction techniques, in a small practical setting with direct feedback.
We decide the appropriate level at the face during the first appointment, not by telephone. See the full course range.

One-to-one, in a group or as a workshop
One-to-one. Just you and Rocío Furger. We review your products, remove those unsuitable for your tone and build the routine on your face. You apply makeup and we guide you. This can also be booked as a single lesson on one topic such as eyes or foundation.
Group tuition. Groups remain small so everyone practises. Watching other faces shows why the same method creates different effects. Join an existing group or attend as a closed group with friends.
Workshop. One continuous appointment on a chosen theme for companies, associations, teams or private occasions. Bridal parties, seasonal event makeup and mother-and-daughter workshops are common. We agree place, duration and content beforehand.

What to expect
Four steps, no surprises
01Request information
Tell us the level and whether you prefer one-to-one, group or workshop learning. We send content, duration and upcoming dates.
02Assess the starting point
We assess skin, face shape and your products. Bring everything you use, including products you never reach for.
03Apply it yourself
We demonstrate each step on one half of your face and you complete the other, so you see the difference directly.
04Take the routine home
We record your sequence and products, plus what is missing and what you can skip. We answer later questions by message.
Frequently asked questions
What you may want to know
Must I bring my own products?
Yes, bring everything you own, including mistaken purchases. We work with your products so the routine works at home. We provide brushes and additions and recommend only what is genuinely missing, without requiring you to buy from us.
Will I look painted on afterwards?
We work in thin layers only where they help. The rest remains visible skin. You assess the first half in daylight before continuing, and we reduce anything that feels too much.
Is the course suitable if I am over forty?
Yes, this is our usual age group. Mature skin needs different textures, less powder and different application around the eye and crease. We teach exactly that.
How long does a course take?
A one-to-one session takes half an afternoon. Group tuition spans several appointments depending on level. Pro takes longest because participants practise on another face. Exact duration and current dates are in the PDF course information.
Can I attend with friends as a private group?
Yes. Closed groups help choose the topic and date and are common for weddings, birthdays and teams. Groups remain small so everyone works on their own face. Tell us the number of people.
Is Pro a recognised professional qualification?
No. Pro is small-group practical teaching, not a state-recognised qualification. It teaches working on others, hygiene and light. For a broader professional route, see the beautician course with internship.
