01Is this for you?

Built for artists who are ready to stop practising on themselves.

If you're serious about working with real clients — brides, families, editorial — this room was designed for you. Five kinds of people sit in it.

  1. 01

    Self-taught

    “You can do a beautiful look on your own face and freeze on a real client's.”

    Fits the 5-Day track

  2. 02

    Salon artist wanting your own brides

    “Fixed salary, party makeup, and you watch the bridal artist earn what you earn in a month.”

    Fits the 10-Day track

  3. 03

    Restarting after a break

    “You were always the one doing makeup at every family wedding. Now you want it to pay, on your hours.”

    Fits the 5-Day track

  4. 04

    Fresh graduate

    “You love this and need a real, earning skill your family takes seriously, fast.”

    Fits the 5-Day track

  5. 05

    Working artist stuck at mid-tier

    “Bookings come, but the base doesn't last ten hours and you can't justify premium rates.”

    Fits the 10-Day track

From guessing to booking confidence.

  • YouTube tutorials live correction while you work
  • practising on your own face real faces
  • undercharging and hoping a rate card you can say out loud
  • guessing the sequence one system for every face

02Your mentor

Kareizma. Twelve years behind the chair, and the quiet craft of teaching.

Kareizma has spent over a decade on real bridal mornings, fashion shoots and editorial work, building a reputation for elegant, timeless, camera-ready looks across soft glam, classic Indian and high-fashion styles.

Her teaching is the same as her bookings: small numbers, a calm room, deep attention. You learn skin preparation, product knowledge and long-wear technique with the precision a paying client expects, then translate it into your own signature without copying hers.

It is the course she wishes existed when she started. The mentor she wishes she'd had.

  2. Powder brush setting a bride's base

    02

    Prep and base

    Hydration, correction and a long-wear, camera-safe structure that holds through tears, flash and long hours.

  3. Close-up of a gold smoky eye being lined on a bride

    03

    Eyes and lips

  4. Final liner detail on a South Indian bride wearing a maang tikka

    04

    Sculpt and lock

    Contour, blush, highlight and setting for the dance floor, the photographer and the ten-hour reception.

07The money story

The money story, in plain numbers.

We don't sell a dream. We show you the arithmetic every working artist in Mumbai already knows.

Bridal booking rate in Mumbai
₹10,000–₹25,000+ per function
5-Day fee
₹45,000, or about 2–4 bookings
10-Day fee
₹55,000, or about 3–5 bookings
After that
the skill keeps earning

Why five days, not two months.

Most Mumbai academies sell one- to two-month diplomas at ₹1.2–3 lakh plus a kit. Kareizma teaches the working-artist track: the Face-to-Finish System, real-face practice, live correction and the business of being booked, in five or ten focused days at ₹45,000 or ₹55,000.

Working at a salon? Many students start with weekend brides and build a second income before they decide anything else.

No earnings guarantee. Results depend on practice, portfolio, consistency and client effort. Booking rates are typical Mumbai freelance ranges, not promises.

09Questions

Before you enrol.

Short answers. Anything else, ask on WhatsApp and a human replies.

  • Where are the courses held?

    In person at Kareizma's studio in Andheri West, Mumbai. The Self-Grooming Masterclass is live online.

  • I have no professional makeup experience. Can I join?

    Yes. The courses are built for self-taught students, hobbyists, salon artists and beginners who want a clear professional system.

  • Which course should I choose — 5-Day or 10-Day?

    Choose the 5-Day course (₹45,000) for the pro makeup system, portfolio and pricing confidence. Choose the 10-Day course (₹55,000) if you also want hairstyling, regional bridal styles and a full makeup + hair portfolio shoot. Want to do your own makeup, not clients'? That's the 1-day Self-Grooming Masterclass (₹1,499, live online).

  • Will we practise on real faces?

    Yes. Real-face practice is the core of the training, because client work is different from doing makeup on yourself.

  • Do I get a certificate?

    Yes. You receive a certificate of completion at the end of the course.

  • Will I get portfolio photos?

    Yes. The last day of the 5-Day course is a portfolio day — you shoot your final looks on your model with full lighting, on your phone, and a photographer is available at a nominal additional cost. The 10-Day course ends with a full makeup + hair portfolio shoot with a photographer, included.

  • What is the batch size?

    Six students per batch, so every face gets live correction. Ask on WhatsApp for the next batch date.

  • Is a makeup kit included?

    Ask on WhatsApp for the current kit details; products are demonstrated in class, not sold.

  • Can I pay in instalments?

    Ask the team on WhatsApp for the payment schedule available for the current batch.

  • What if I miss a class?

    Message the team before enrolling so we can explain the current missed-class support and batch policy.

  • Will this course help me get paid work?

    The course gives you the skill, portfolio thinking, pricing basics and client handling. Results depend on your practice and consistency — many students target recovering the fee within their first 2–4 bookings.

  • What are the class timings?

    Pro courses run 11 AM to 4 PM at the Andheri West studio. The Self-Grooming Masterclass runs live online from 11 AM to 5 PM.
