Este curso e muito bom
Siento que podría ser un poco más dinámico y agregar más técnicas porque son muy pocas
Achei supreendente com informações antes não vistas em outros lugares. Gostei muito da didatica e das técnicas apresentadas. Se houvesse outro cursos da professora com certeza eu compraria. Gostaria de sugerir um curso de especialização em maquiagem.
Este curso me ha servido mucho.
Excelente curso, justo lo que necesitaba.
