About Makeup & Nail Art Academy
My Approach
Teaching makeup and nail art is more than just showing you how to hold a brush. I care about helping you build real confidence and the skills to stand out. You’ll learn the technical bits, but I’ll also push you to find your own style and voice as a makeup artist or nail pro.
What You Can Learn
- All levels welcome - I teach beginners and advanced students both, online and in-person.
- My 1-month professional makeup course covers everything from basic theory to advanced bridal makeup techniques, with lots of hands-on practice. You’ll even get to use studio outfits for portfolio building.
- The 3-day self makeup course is totally personalized - I’ll help you nail everyday looks and glam styles, based on your face and preferences.
- Nail art isn’t left out. My 1-month nail art course digs deep into basics and goes up to nail extension certification, all at a dedicated nail station.
What I Actually Teach
I’m always straight with students.
- Real product talk - Jaise (for example), I’ll tell you honestly when a shiny blush isn’t for textured skin, ya phir (or) which setting powder fits which skin type.
- Hands-on makeup training beats theory. I show tricks like fuller lips with C-shaped lining, elongating small eyes, and why clear-band lashes look best.
- You’ll know about tools that save your kit - like using Inglot’s Duraline to fix dried liners.
My Studio Vibe
My Kharghar academy’s got a pro makeup workstation, nail station, wardrobe for shoots, and the MG’s Stunner wall where student work gets displayed. I want you to feel inspired and at home.
Why I Do This
Dekho (Look), I’m here to help you walk out with confidence, not just a certificate. Seeing you succeed is my favorite part.

My Story
Hi, I'm Mahima from MG Makeup Studio & Academy. Makeup for me isn’t just about the trophies—though yeah, winning at Indiaskills and Worldskills was wild! The real win? When a bride sees herself and just glows. Did my own sister’s wedding makeup, and man, that was emotional. Lots of folks feel shy or think they’re not photogenic, but I promise, you’re already stunning. My job? To make you feel like family, and help you see that magic. Bas, that’s the goal. ♥️
