About Makeup & Styling Training

My Teaching Approach

Makeup for me is less about covering up, more about celebrating what’s unique. I teach you how to work with real skin - not just models in photos. Whether you’re learning for yourself or planning a career, I show you practical skills I’ve picked up across all sorts of faces, ages, and dusky skin tones. No fancy kits needed, just the right knowledge.

Courses I Offer

15-Day Pro Makeup Course: We get right into it, starting from basics like the Colour Wheel, then moving to hands-on skills. You’ll learn my signature bridal makeup masterclass, and get real practice on actual clients. At the end, you’ll have a professional portfolio shoot for makeup artists to kickstart your journey. Yes, you’ll get a certificate too.
1-Month Pro Hairstyling Course: Perfect if you want to upgrade your skills or focus on styling. I guide you through everything from soft waves to bridal buns, mixing latest trends with classic techniques.

Short Workshops

2-Day Self-Grooming: I keep it simple - natural everyday makeup tips you can do yourself, with product insights that suit your skin.
3-Day Saree Draping Workshop: Learn multiple styles, quick tricks, and hands-on saree fixes to look sharp, whether you’re a beginner or just need some finesse.

What I Stand For

I love seeing my students succeed, and I’m always there to help you fix those choti choti mistakes (small little errors). If you want honest feedback and real confidence, I’m your person. My students call me ‘Poonam didi’ for a reason - I’m all about making you feel comfortable and skilled.

My Story

Hi, I’m Poonam. Been hustling 28 years, finally bought my Tata Punch - not a fancy car, but it’s mine. My old Alto, she was family. I always say: dream big, but use your dimaag (brain). What keeps me going? That ‘wow’ from a bride in the mirror. I teach too – my students call me Poonam didi, and when they say, ‘meri silly mistakes clear ho gayi’ (my silly mistakes are gone), I’m just happy. Happy brides, happy students, happy me!
