About this event

Curious to explore your feminine identity and expression?
Join us for Doll House, a workshop series led by our community’s Fem Queens to celebrate femininity in all its forms.

These workshops are designed for individuals under the trans fem umbrella and anyone who is beginning their journey with feminine expression and identity. Whether you’re a Junior FQ, drag, genderfluid, BQ, or just someone who is curious to explore a new side of yourself, this space is for you.

In the first workshop of the series, we’ll go through the fundamentals of face make-up: base make-up, colour correcting, contouring, blush techniques and more.


All skill levels are welcome, and we’ll provide the tools and products you need (feel free to bring your own if you prefer).

The session will be facilitated by Sharmila Gabbana, a freelance make-up artist and member of the DBS with years of experience in the industry and community.

Don't hesitate to sign up! The fist 10 participants to sign up to the workshop get a free make-up kit, containing a beginners brush set, custom-picked face products, an eyeshadow palette and more!

Stay tuned for future Doll House workshops!
