Meet Your Instructor
Welcome! I’m Gracelisa, the founder of Lash Classes and your dedicated Lash Classes trainer. Pronounced just as it looks—Grace-Lisa—you’re welcome to call me Grace.
My journey in beauty began with a passion for both art and aesthetics, rooted in my upbringing between Kalamazoo and Muskegon, Michigan. While still in high school, I simultaneously pursued cosmetology and painting, laying the foundation for a career that blends creativity with technical skill. I began working professionally right after graduation, first as a makeup artist with Victoria’s Secret and later with MAC Cosmetics.
My early career eventually led me to Los Angeles, where I had the opportunity to work on movie sets, photo shoots, and news stations, gaining hands-on experience in the fast-paced world of professional makeup artistry. During this time, I attended Make-Up Designory (MUD) in Los Angeles, one of the most respected makeup academies in the country, where I further refined my skills in film, television, and editorial makeup.
After my time in Los Angeles, I continued expanding my education by attending a Bridal Makeup Academy in Chicago, specializing in bridal and event beauty. I later worked with Premier Events, providing makeup services for weddings and special occasions and helping countless clients feel confident and beautiful on some of the most important days of their lives.
In early 2015, I discovered the world of eyelash extensions, and it quickly became a passion that would transform my career. What began as an additional beauty service soon grew into a specialty that allowed me to combine precision, artistry, and the joy of helping others feel confident in their own skin. Over the years, I invested in advanced education, refined my techniques, and built a successful lash business.
As my experience grew, I discovered something that became just as meaningful to me as the craft itself - teaching.
I’ve always been a natural nurturer, and helping other women learn, grow, and build confidence in themselves became one of the most rewarding parts of my career. Watching someone discover their passion, gain new skills, and realize they are capable of creating their own opportunities is incredibly fulfilling to me.
Through LashClasses.com, my mission is not only to teach professional lash techniques but also to mentor and empower women to pursue careers that allow them to live fulfilling, independent lives. I believe education should go beyond technique , it should inspire confidence, passion, and the courage to build something meaningful.
