Everyone needs a touch up now and then.

And former president Barack Obama is no different.

Yes, the man that used to occupy the oval office had his own makeup artist and it’s none other than James Vincent.

The influential makeup artist has painted the faces of everyone from Lady Gaga to Reese Witherspoon and knows a thing or two about what makes for a flawless finish.

And if you want to learn from the best, then this weekend is your chance.

The makeup maestro is flying in from New York to Dublin on Sunday, August 20, to host a five-hour masterclass with Make Up For Ever.

Showing off two of the biggest makeup trends from this year’s catwalks, those in attendance will learn how to achieve everything from the perfect radiant base to a 60s inspired eye look.


While tickets are a little pricey at €129, those tempted will be treated to a 20 percent discount in store’s Pro Boutique, and to an amazing goody bag worth over €100 in products from Make Up For Ever, The Balm, and Beauty Blender.

Not bad, not bad at all.
