LIMITED AVAILABLITY
PRO DAY
WITH
PADDY
A full day of private, tailored training — built
entirely around your skills, your goals, your level.
"This isn't a group class. It isn't a pre-set curriculum. Your Private Studio Day is one full day with one of Ireland's leading artists — built entirely around you."
WHAT THIS IS
Training that meets you
exactly where you are
exactly where you are
Whether you’re just starting out or you’re an established artist looking to sharpen a specific skill — your Private Studio Day is yours from start to finish. You tell Paddy the two looks or areas you want to work on. He’ll review your work beforehand, and the entire day is shaped around where you’re at and where you want to go.
No wasted hours on things you already know. No rushing through a packed group agenda. Just focused, real-time, one-to-one guidance from an artist with over 20 years of professional experience.
THE FULL DAY, JUST YOU
Private access to Paddy from start to finish — no other students, no distractions.
YOU CHOOSE THE FOCUS
Pick what you want to work on — looks, technique, skin, products, content, career. It's entirely your call.
YOUR SKILL LEVEL
Paddy reviews your work in advance and tailors the day to your exact starting point. All levels leave transformed.
REAL TIME FEEDBACK
Live corrections, honest feedback, and hands-on guidance throughout — the kind you simply can't get in a group setting.
YOU CHOOSE THE DATE
Pick a date that works for you. Availability is limited and fills quickly.

QUESTIONS ANSWERED
How do I secure my date?
Pay your £100 deposit to hold your place, and Anita will be in touch to arrange a date and time that works for you and Paddy’s diary. If you’d prefer to agree a date before paying, you’re welcome to email Anita first at anita@makeupprostore.co.uk — whatever suits you best. The remaining £250 balance is paid on the day.
What does the £350 include?
A full private day with Paddy — one-to-one, tailored entirely to you. That includes hands-on tuition across your chosen focus areas, real-time feedback and corrections throughout, and the optional career and brand audit if you’d like to use it. You secure your date with a £100 deposit, and pay the £250 balance on the day.
Can two of us come together?
If you and a colleague from the same salon want to train together, get in touch with Anita at anita@makeupprostore.co.uk before booking and she’ll talk through the options with you. The Pro Day with Paddy is designed as a one-to-one experience, so Anita will make sure whatever is arranged works for everyone.
What level do I need to be?
All levels are genuinely welcome — from artists who are just starting out to experienced professionals looking to level up a specific skill. Paddy reviews your work before the day and shapes everything around where you’re at. You won’t be pushed ahead of yourself, and you won’t be covering ground you’ve already mastered.
How do I choose what to focus on?
You pick what you want to work on — whether that’s a specific look, a technique, skin and base work, products, content creation, or your business and bookings. Scroll up to browse focus areas for inspiration. Once you’ve booked, Anita will pass your preferences to Paddy ahead of your day.
Where does the day take place?
Your Pro Day with Paddy takes place at Paddy’s studio in Belfast — First Floor, 133 Royal Avenue, Belfast, BT1 1FG. Right in the heart of the city and easy to get to.
Can I capture content on the day?
Absolutely. If you want to use the day to build your portfolio, capture behind-the-scenes content, or create material for your Instagram, you’re encouraged to. Just let Anita know when you’re booking and Paddy will factor that into the day.
Can I come back for another session?
Absolutely — and many artists do. The Private Studio Day is designed so every session is completely fresh and built around wherever you are at that point. Artists often book a first day around technique, then return to focus on skin, business, or content. Each session stands entirely on its own.
