From Student to Pro: Hands-On Makeup Training
I don't believe in shortcuts. In my academy, we focus on the science of makeup, hands-on practice, and the real-world skills you need to build a career.
Live feedback during a practical session. I'm correcting my student's tightlining technique. It's a small detail, but getting it right is crucial for a clean, professional eye makeup look.
A student asks about the difference between Kryolan's Supra and Derma palettes. I explain that Supra is a creamy, hydrating formula for dry skin, while Derma is a mattifying formula for oily skin. Understanding product science is key.
The stickier the moisturizer, the better the base. I explain the science to my students: a tacky moisturizer grips the foundation, creating a long-lasting, flawless base that doesn't move.
Not every eye shape is suited for a cut crease. I'm teaching my students how to identify the right eye shapes, like protruding or almond eyes, for this technique to ensure the makeup is flattering and visible.
A glimpse into a masterclass at the academy. Students get a clear, close-up view of my techniques on a live screen as I demonstrate a full look, explaining every step.
What you see is what you get. I pride myself on posting my real, unfiltered work so students and clients know the quality they can expect. This is me working on a client, no filters, just technique.

About this collection
When I'm correcting a student's work, I often look for one thing: are they tightlining first? If you don't, you'll get shimmer fallout all over the base you just spent an hour perfecting. These small, technical choices are exactly what separate a hobbyist from a professional, and that is what we fix together in every session at my Goregaon studio.
The Science of Makeup, Not Just Theory
Many courses focus on theory, but I believe in the science of skin prep and technique. Whether you are a total beginner or a working artist looking to upgrade, my training at the academy is 100% hands-on. I show you exactly why we use specific product formulas for different skin types, like why Supra palettes work for dry skin while Derma is better for mattifying oily skin.
