Since moving to the new salon having more space has enabled us to think of bigger and better ideas. Having done many one on one makeup lessons over the years and found them very rewarding, I started to think about holding group tutorials.
As everyone who knows me knows, once I get an idea that’s it. It wasn’t long before I was designing my own Peaches school crest complete with my own corporate tartan and The University of Peaches and Cream was born.
The classes take place an alternate Tuesday and Wednesday nights from 6pm – 8pm. The compulsory first lesson is for Brown Smokey eyes and Peachie cheeks, a Peaches and Cream classic. After watching a demo, you are provided with all the materials and the help from us Peaches to recreate it on yourself.
It’s a great night out for friends, and will definitely change the way you think about applying makeup. You also get a step by step guide to take home to help you remember what you’ve learnt. Once you’ve been to the initial group session we welcome you to come back and learn more looks from our portfolio in one to one sessions.

I love Monday's in work, sounds mad to say that, but after the initial drag myself out of bed scenario after a busy weekend at work, the day soon improves when I walk through Peaches doors. Mondays usually consist of me and Hayesy cleaning the shop from top to bottom, whilst listening to cringeful music/singing and occasionally dancin' whilst doing so!! This week Little Katie was off so Roey took over and with a little help from Will Smith's Greatest Hits we had the shop sparklin'!
Another good thing about Mondays is the fact I get to become a teacher for the day in the make up lessons that are booked in. This week we had a girl, Mhairi, come all the way from Aberdeen to have the ultimate Peaches Experience. Firstly she had her hair put up by Kate, she chose one of our newest trends the 'curly pony' - which was perfected with one of Nic's new fish plait head bands. Then she was ready to complete her look with a makeup lesson. Mhairi chose to have a go at mastering the 'glitter smokes' lesson and soon picked out two of Peaches new eye shadow pigments which she fell in love with and wanted to buy pretty much straight away!
I have included a few pics from the lesson. I started by talking Mhairi through the stages of the makeover step by step, starting with her eyes. I did the whole make over on one half of her face and left the other half for her to have a go herself. She was really confident and soon had the other side of her face looking just as good as mine!! :)
Make up lessons are available throughout the week Monday to Thurdays in shop hours for individuals , or alternate Tuesday and Wednesday night - call the shop for more info 01512271669.

Heres a few words from my student of the day!
'After watching 'don't tell the bride' on BBC3 when it first came on screen. I became inspired by the work peaches and cream do. I found myself constantly scouring there website for make up tips and ideas but could never get it 'just right'.Having just turned 21 my mum suggested we go to liverpool for the weekend so I could finally try the peaches way for myself. I could not have asked for better service and the outcome was amazing! I thoroughly enjoyed my day and can definitely see my self making the 6 hour journey from aberdeen again just to feel as fab as I do today ( even tho all I'm doing is shopping for the day!!! ) Thank you very much, love Mhairi x'
