01Overview

The programme

The course covers the full working range of a contemporary Indian makeup artist — from a college-going girl's first soft glam to a bride's reception look on the same evening. We teach skin first: how Indian undertones read on camera, how to correct without over-correcting, and how to build a base that lasts a sixteen-hour wedding day.

Students spend roughly two-thirds of the programme on live models. The remaining time is split between theory, product chemistry, hygiene, and the business of building a personal kit on a starter budget.

By the end, students leave with a working portfolio of ten finished looks shot in studio conditions, a professionally inventoried kit list, and a pricing model they can take to clients on day one.
