Have you ever spent hours late at night watching makeup tutorials online and thought…
hmm love to be her/him one day.I bet you have as I have in the past. I have imagined working with famous celebrities and traveling around the world doing what I love, while getting paid for it.
So I took the chance, flew to Dubai and the rest was history.
I thought the life of a Makeup Artist was easy.
Believe me, I had to crawl my way into the industry, as years ago, makeup artists from my country
I had to train every single day crying while I drew eyeliners. I have lived in places not suitable for human beings and worked with impossible personalities.
But in spite of all that, I kept going. I honed my skills, trying to gain as much experience as I can, learned from different styles of makeup from different people, and always having that goal of stepping up in my career.
Fast-forward 15 years later, I still haven’t reached all my goals.
So far, I’ve crossed out a few things off my bucket list though – such as, worked for VIPs of Dubai, princesses, celebrities, work in media, my work published in magazines, attend classy events, meeting amazing people in the industry and so much more.
And maybe you don’t have to go through what I’ve gone through by taking our Platinum Makeup Course this Ramadan.
The Lipstick Makeup Institute is offering a 40% discount 25,000 AED to 15,000 AED for a limited time. If you take this course, I’m sure you’ll get ahead in the game really fast. Just call: 0528349964
the life of a makeup artistThe Life of a Makeup Artist
Last week, The Lipstick Makeup Institute took part in the Professional Beauty GCC event at Meydan, Dubai on the 5th-6th of February.
The Lipstick Makeup Institute
showcased 3 different looks on stage. Two of the makeup artists were past students of The Platinum Media Course, at The Lipstick Makeup Institute. They had the chance to showoff their amazing skills, and had a blast while doing that too!
Creative and ColourfulCreative and Colourful Backstage-
At first, the makeup artists were nervous to be going on stage and talking about their work, Their nerves however, soon disappeared once they were speaking to Yasmin Hussain on stage, and explaining to her and everyone the meaning and process of their artistic looks.
Sultry and Smokey-Sultry and Smokey-
We had some variety of looks that day, from smoky eyes to colourful creative looks, and even pop art! Each different look had its own skill,talent and story behind it. We got to know the artists some more, while they explained their stories and journeys, and how they have become Pro Makeup Artists.
POP Art!-POP Art!- Professional Beauty GCC
The hairstylists explained to the team the exact looks they wanted, that would highlight the hairstyles they were exhibiting. Then the Lipstick team went to work, and delivered a great job with the makeup. The models looked fantastic with the final looks while on stage.

All in all, The Lipstick Makeup Institute Team had a wonderful time featuring their talents at the event, and loved taking part in such a great convention of all things Beauty.

We are all really please to be asked to participate in the Dubai modest Fashion Week.
It’s an amazing event.
The first time in the UAE.
this ben in London, Istanbul and New York,
It was inflicted with influencers, bloggers and amazing designers.
The models looked just so beautiful and elegant in the Beautiful designs all ver elegant for Dubais Modest Fashion Week.
There were so many designers that came to Dubai just for this event from all over the world.
As usual, The Lipstick Make Up Institute Teams just love Fashion Shows. We thrive on the adrenalin and the rush of the exciting challenges that the days bring. We love the pressure and th dramatic changes from designer to designer.
This time though there were not too may changes as it the Title of the Show says, The Modern Fashion Show! so hence the makeup had also to be minimalistic and not so pronounced. Delicate and flawless makeup was the dominant feature of the shows. This was so not to take anything away from the designers and the clothes.
I never knew that there so many ways to wear a hijab and look so cool. The clothes were very , ” now” and so in with fashion, we were all so impressed.
We just can’t wait for the next Fashion Show. This is the season of events and the teams are all busy bees.
.We can sail and watch the sunset together on The Palm Jumeirah.
Cannot wait. Congratulations to Everyone!!!!

As I have said, a portfolio can also be useful when applying for makeup opportunities.
All in all the course is about learning and about you.
Above all we look forward to hearing from you.
Have a look at our website to get some ideas.
Because we have an extensive range of courses. However, if you just want to learn for yourself this is perfect.
The time had come again. Arab Fashion Week hit Dubai with full force. Once again we were so pleased to be involved.
lets take you backstage with The Lipstick MakeUp Institute team.
THE MAKE UP Brand: illamasqua
Colours ready
Being backstage at a fashion show is so much more than just being a MakeUp artist. You are part of a family to get the show on the road. The trick is to all stick together, work with confidence, keep alert and of course ALWAYS smile and never loose focus. Its important to be on the ball as fashion shows can be a crazy rush backstage.
When it comes to fashion shows, they key thing to remember is timing is everything. As beautiful and stunning fashion shows are from the front row, its not all glitz and glamour backstage. Backstage is where the months of hard work comes to life in a matter of hours. However, the rush is additive and the achievement you feel once the show has finished lasts for days.

Lights Camera Action Lets get this show on the road.
This amazing experience gave our fantastic Lipstick Make Up Institute team to express their artistry in more ways than one. Each day kept us all on our toes, we all loved it and left us craving for more. We got to work with fashion designers from around the world which we can all defiantly say this is a “pinch-me” moment. You might be there to do MakeUp but do not be surprised if you get pulled by someone to help dress a model, tidy a models hair or even to maybe run and get some water and food for everyone.
Girls gotta eat
Working in a fashion show keeps you up to date with the latest beauty trends and whats the hottest new looks. You could be the most experience MakeUp artist but you will always learn new tricks backstage that you can bring home, this will make you very popular with your girlfriends.
Arab Fashion Week was held between 5 days. We will take you through each day with all the looks changes and show you some fantastic pictures we managed to get in whist our team worked their magic.
The Lipstick Makeup Institute was a part of the Mothers Day makeup filming in Osh Kosh baby store.
Mothers Day makeup at Osh Kosh store
Your setup reflects you. Make sure that your makeup products and brushes are always clean and well organised.
We took our students to experience the working on a location and in front of camera feeling of the Mothers Day makeup filming .
Our students were responsible for a nice flawless and fresh makeup on these lovely ladies.
Students in action applying Mothers Day makeup
The task was easy. The mothers got few questions to answer while our students are pampering them and making sure they look lovely and perfectly made up. In this case the perfectly made up means not over the top, nothing glamorous but just a touch of makeup what will make the face fresh, the skin flawless.
The less is always more. This is the most important to memorise!
Always work with the face and the features. Don’t try to apply the same makeup style on every single face.
We are all unique, we all have a different personality also different needs when it comes to makeup. What will suit to me won’t suit you and to some other person.
Our students are trained in that way to recognise the needs of different faces and features. Makeup is used to enhance the beauty and correct the small imperfections not to make you look like a different person.
Todays makeup look was a Mothers Day makeup. Why is it different than the other makeup looks?
Its very light as a base. On the eyes we were using beige, browns with a touch of highlight. Mascara of course is a must. On the cheeks we added a touch of peach-orange colour to give a refreshing effect for the face as some of our ladies didn’t sleep much. On the lips a transparent lipgloss.
Mothers Day makeup
Our students in action. Beautifying our lovely models.
It was fun. We heard loads of stories about the funniest stories about their kids, the most important words they love to hear from their kids, and the everyday with 2 or 3 kids in the house.
All these lovely ladies deserve loads of attention, love and pampering… not only when its Mothers Day… but every day!!
