"The whole experience from start to finish was enjoyable. Being a part of the Levels program allowed me to be vulnerable and learn from amazing artists has really changed my perspective, given me confidence. It already shows in my work. I find that I feel more empowered, talk better to myself, have more motivation, and am more efficient with my clients because of these things. I can’t thank Bonnie and Maggie enough for the honesty, acceptance, and openness to share their expertise. If you’re looking to expand mentally and physically as an artist and person, I highly recommend this course. It will upgrade you to a better version of yourself and open your eyes to new concepts overall elevate your business."

"I am so happy to have been a part of this wonderful group and experience the Levels program together. The amount I’ve learned and grown my artistry has really exceeded my expectations. I loved learning & keeping up with new trends for continuing education as beauty products change. I always felt like I had an open line of communication so that if I needed anything, I felt comfortable coming to them for help or advice. Their willingness to teach & passion for education, and enthusiasm to see your artistry grow was very apparent. My attention to detail and airbrush skills have improved greatly!"

I didn’t expect to feel so supported, as this industry can feel pretty lonely at times. Bonnie & Maggie are onto something great and worthwhile for anyone who is serious about investing in their artistry."

"I’ve learned so many helpful tricks and a ton about the right products for my kit! This was so helpful to me as I’m beginning to break into the industry. Thanks to the Levels program, my process has become faster and my accuracy with lines has really improved. I loved learning from Bonnie - her energy, personality and way of caring is palatable. She inspires me to keep reaching for my goals!"

"Since being apart of the Levels program, I’ve already seen such an improvement in my skills- from prepping the skin and décolletage properly, brush techniques, using gel eyeliner, using shadow sticks, etc.. Beyond technique, I feel I’ve learned alot about taking care of ourselves as makeup artists and how to deal with certain challenging situations in our field. It was the perfect addition to the class. I’ve truly taken everything taught in class and the critiques to work hard and improve."
