Tipsy Tutorials

A monthly themed makeup workshop — hands-on, beginner-friendly, and actually fun

Once a month, MBL opens its studio doors for an intimate, hands-on makeup workshop designed for beginners through to intermediate — and each night is dedicated to one signature look. Arrive to a welcome glass of bubbles, take a seat at your fully set-up station, and spend the evening working through a complete look step by step with MBL lead artist Em.

Every product and brush on your station is provided by our sponsor Runway Room Cosmetics — so you're learning on professional tools from the moment you walk in. No experience needed. No stress. Just a really good night.

What's on — July 2026

 Smokey Eye Night

Tuesday 8 July · Doors open 6pm
MBL Studio, 276 Union Road, Moonee Ponds

The smokey eye — done properly, broken down simply. Em has designed this workshop specifically for beginners through to intermediate, so every step is explained clearly and at your own pace. You'll learn how to build depth, blend without patchiness, and adapt the look to your own eye shape. Leave knowing how to actually recreate this at home — not just once, but every time.

Your $150 ticket includes:

  • Welcome glass of bubbles on arrival
  • All Runway Room products and brushes provided at your station
  • Full step-by-step smokey eye workshop led by Em
  • Light nibbles on the night
  • A goodie bag to take home
  • An exclusive discount on Runway Room products available to purchase on the night

BYO extra drinks and your best mate.

How the night works

This isn't a demo you watch from a distance — it's a proper workshop. Your station is fully set up with Runway Room products and brushes when you arrive. Em walks the room, talking you through each step of the look and making sure every guest is keeping up and feeling confident before moving on. The group is kept intentionally small so you get real guidance, not just a show.

By the end of the night you'll have completed the full look yourself — on your own face, with your own hands — and you'll know exactly how to do it again.

Presented by Runway Room Cosmetics

Tipsy Tutorials is proudly sponsored by Runway Room Cosmetics, who supply every product and brush used on the night — plus your welcome glass of bubbles. As a guest you'll also have the opportunity to purchase any Runway Room products you loved at an exclusive discount before you leave.
