This. Is. Major.

Sephora's bringing confidence up a notch up for everyone with new makeup classes for trans and non-binary people, rolling out this summer.
According to Nylon, the classes will be operated by Sephora's own trans and non-binary employees. Anyone who attends will receive skincare regimens, application tips including how to foundation match, color correct, contour and everything else needed for perfectly beat face.
"We stand with all members of the LGBTQA community and are committed to providing these individuals with the tools they want to feel confident and beautiful every single day,” said Corrie Conrad, Sephora's social impact director. "And that should be celebrated."
Twitter practically lost it, and with good reason
The classes are set to hit 150 stores but if there's not one in your area, Sephora will be uploading video tutorials on their YouTube channel.
