I focus on the on-set skills that actually get you booked. Whether it is showing you how to direct a client by saying 'turn chei itla' for the perfect angle or teaching you how to fix a patchy contour in real time, my classes are about making you job-ready, not just camera-ready. I learned from the best at the Lakshmi Shetty academy, but I know how overwhelming it is to start. That is why my teaching process strips away the confusion. We focus on real-world techniques, not just Instagram trends. ### My Approach to Training I believe in learning by doing. In my classes, we work on skin prep for different Indian skin tones, color correction, and base application that actually lasts through long events. You will learn how to handle mature skin, bridal looks, and even editorial styles using the same minimal-edit, soft glam techniques I use on my own clients. ### What You Will Learn * **On-Set Etiquette:** You will learn how to communicate with your subjects. Good makeup is half the battle; the other half is knowing how to pose a bride or model to get the best result. * **Technical Skill:** We cover halo eyes, cut-crease, and smokey eyes, but we also focus on the science of why products behave the way they do. * **Portfolio Building:** For my advanced students, we focus on lighting, angles, and capturing the final look so you have a professional portfolio to show potential clients. ### Who Is This For? Whether you are an absolute beginner looking for a self-grooming workshop or an existing artist wanting a 3-day mentorship to fix technical issues like grey foundation or patchy blending, I offer a clear, step-by-step path. My goal is to help our makeup community grow by teaching artists to respect the craft and deliver results that stand up to real life, not just heavy editing. ## About Yashoda HD Hi, I'm Yashoda.
