Shivani Goyal - Charting Her Way Through

What was your inspiration to be a make-up artist?

I was inspired by the posts of other artists on social media and so, decided to take it up as career option. Gradually my interest in the eld started to grow. Also, there were not many artists in Agra, my city, who were offering such a level of professional make-up to brides. Therefore, I felt that it was a good opportunity and the timing was right.

What is the education you gained in the line?

I did a professional make-up artist course from Zorains Academy in Bengaluru. I learnt various techniques of make-up from basics to advanced.

What is your strength in make-up artistry?

I have done a wide variety of work, but my passion lies in bridal make-up. Seeing my brides brimming with happiness and confidence after their make-up gives fills me with an immense amount of satisfaction. It seems that all the hard work has been worth it.

What were some of the challenges you had to face when you started out?
