Whether you are struggling with color correction for dark circles or just want a clean, everyday look, the secret is always in the skin prep and the right product placement. I teach my students that a heavy hand is never the solution, as you only want to build coverage where you actually need it to keep the skin looking like skin. Makeup shouldn't feel like a secret society, and that is exactly why I don't gatekeep. I have gathered the core techniques I teach in my intensive masterclasses at my M3M Urbana studio here in Gurugram. Whether you are just starting your journey or looking to refine your pro kit, mastering the basics changes everything. We talk a lot about snatched contouring and HD base application, but the reality is that clean skin prep is the true foundation of a long-lasting look. If your base isn't prepped correctly, even the most expensive foundation won't sit right. In my sessions, I walk you through how to tackle common pain points like pigmentation without creating a cakey finish. We cover eye artistry—from soft glam to complex cut-creases—using the same techniques I use for my brides. The goal isn't just to paint a face but to understand product placement for different skin textures. If you are interested in more than just quick tips, my hands-on workshops dive deep into these areas. We handle everything from the business side of marketing yourself as an artist to the technical aspects of color theory and waterproof application. No fluff, just real practice, professional certification, and the confidence to handle any client. ## About Gauri Kakas I’m Gauri, and I run my makeup academy in Gurugram. I don't believe in gatekeeping, so I teach my students exactly how I work on my own clients. Whether you are learning for yourself or want to go professional, I’m here to make sure you get the real deal.💖 [See all of Gauri Kakas's services](https://mytribe.in/gaurikakas) ## More from Makeup Courses & Masterclasses by Gauri Kakas - [Featured](https://mytribe.in/gaurikakas/makeup-courses-masterclasses/featured) - [Bridal Transformations](https://mytribe.in/gaurikakas/makeup-courses-masterclasses/bridal-transformations) - [Engagement & Cocktail Glam](https://mytribe.in/gaurikakas/makeup-courses-masterclasses/engagement-cocktail-glam) - [Mehendi & Haldi Looks](https://mytribe.in/gaurikakas/makeup-courses-masterclasses/mehendi-haldi-looks) - [Eye Makeup Artistry](https://mytribe.in/gaurikakas/makeup-courses-masterclasses/eye-makeup-artistry) - [Masterclass & Student Success](https://mytribe.in/gaurikakas/makeup-courses-masterclasses/masterclass-student-success) ## More services by Gauri Kakas - [Bridal & Wedding Makeup](https://mytribe.in/gaurikakas/bridal-wedding-makeup) - [Party & Event Makeup](https://mytribe.in/gaurikakas/party-event-makeup) ## Similar work from other experts - [Professional Makeup Tips & Tricks for Beginners](https://mytribe.in/makeoversbyarzoo/personal-makeup-classes/my-pro-tips-tricks) by Arzoo Gupta · Personal Makeup Classes · At studio in Sector 65, Gurugram - [Pro Makeup Tips and Quick Beauty Tutorials](https://mytribe.in/sakshisagarstudio/makeup-courses-workshops/pro-tips-quick-tutorials) by Sakshi Sagar · Makeup Courses & Workshops · Classes at studio in DLF Phase 2, Gurugram - [Pro Tips & Techniques for Flawless Makeup](https://mytribe.in/makeupby_vinal/personal-makeup-lessons-consultation/pro-tips-techniques) by Vinal Jain · Personal Makeup Lessons & Consultation · Available online; In-person at studio in Mulund West, Mumbai - [Makeup Masterclass: Pro Tips & Techniques](https://mytribe.in/kavitamantrimakeup/makeup-artistry-courses-masterclasses/makeup-masterclass-pro-tips-techniques) by Kavita Kubde-Mantri · Makeup Artistry Courses & Masterclasses · Available online and at studio in Andheri West, Mumbai - [Learn My Signature Soft Glam Techniques](https://mytribe.in/makeupby_poojasethi/makeup-lessons-education/learn-my-signature-techniques) by Pooja Sethi · Makeup Lessons & Education · Online classes and in-person at studio in Gurugram - [Professional Makeup Tutorials & Pro Tips](https://mytribe.in/makeupbybhawnasingh/makeup-academy-courses/learn-from-me-tutorials-pro-tips) by Bhawna Singh · Makeup Academy & Courses · In-person classes at academy in Uttam Nagar, Delhi ## Book To book Gauri Kakas, message mytribe on WhatsApp: [Chat on WhatsApp](https://wa.me/916360004054?text=Hi%20Gauri!%20I%20loved%20your%20makeup%20tips%20and%20techniques.%20I%20am%20interested%20in%20joining%20your%20makeup%20masterclass%20in%20Gurugram.%20Could%20you%20tell%20me%20about%20the%20upcoming%20batches%3F)
