This class looks like an interesting alternative to the bard. My only real suggestion for improvement is a change in the name from a form of make-up (and common misspelling) to something more suited to the class's function.

How about beguiler?

I'll have to take this for a spin in my own game sometime to see how it works out.

Now that you mention it, the class probably is usable. I thought I was joking when I designed it (hence the name). If you decide to use the class, please do rename it. You might also want to rename some of the special abilities, especially Makeup!.
