Life As Makeup Artist in 2019

The world’s first fashion show happened in New York in 1903. This was a pioneering time and set the template for the next 100 years, and I’m sure will continue to do so for the next 100 years and beyond. Now…what does this got to do with he Daniel Bauer Academy Being the best makeup academy In India? Well…

The Daniel Bauer Academy has just completed an incredible 6th season at Lakme Fashion week, India’s most high profile fashion showcase. We had 45 students join us backstage from all over India, including 10 artists from our top makeup academy in Delhi, as well as artists from Bangalore, Calcutta, Hyderabad and of course Mumbai.

What really surprised us about this season, was just how many artists who originally joined our academy to learn bridal makeup in our academy are now totally and utterly addicted and love with fashion — the energy, buzz, creativity and adrenaline of a fashion show is simply out of this world.

At the Daniel Bauer Academy, we try to instil in each of our students a sense of the type of artist they wish to be. Some want to be top bridal makeup artists in Delhi, other seek to establish their name in the Fashion, Film, Beauty or TV industry in Bangalore and Mumbai. All are exciting and vibrant industries, but we feel great artists, can do anything, be it bridal, fashion, beauty, TV Shows, events, or even red carpet.

We produce artists who can tackle any brief, we don’t believe in producing just one type of artist (bridal only artist for example).

India is full of exhilarating and exciting jobs for makeup and hair artists. Those who are able to take advantage of these opportunities are those with the adaptable skills to master any brief.

To use a cooking analogy, don’t be a chef who can only cook an omelette. Be an artist who can cook any dish.

Every students of our spends weeks, and sometimes months searching for what they believe is the best makeup and hair school in Mumbai or Best bridal makeup academy in Delhi. Choose wisely, but choose the one that provides you with the maximum opportunities to be successful. Don’t box yourself in, the world is open and so should your opportunities.

The world of makeup is bigger than bridal. Think big, and you’ll make it big
