MakeUp Artist of the Month:<br />
it corporate or personal, makeup comes from within and that’s what matters the most. I have worked with<br />
lots of celebrities like Vidyut Jamwal, Shiamak Dawar, Indeep Bakshi, Raftaar, Shankar Ehsaan Loy, Hard Kaur,<br />
Kailash Kher to name a few and I have also done makeup for my family and friends, and it doesn’t make much<br />
of difference if you enjoy what you are doing and you know your thing.<br />
Kanika Maurya: You started out with freelancing and till date have worked with some reputed brands also.<br />
Do you also want to launch your own brand sometime? What are your views on freelancing and branding?<br />
Priyanka Makhijani: My family has been closely associated with this industry, working hard to live upto their<br />
dreams. So I am going to launch my brand very soon and it would be for my mother, because I know she has<br />
earned it.<br />
Kanika Maurya: It has been almost 8 years in this<br />
profession, I am sure you must have had some<br />
memorable experiences?<br />
Priyanka Makhijani: Since you asked, I vividly remember<br />
a scenario which is very near to my heart. I was training a<br />
group of ladies and a lady, around 40 years of age, came<br />
upto me and said that you are younger than me but I<br />
don’t want to hug you, instead I wanna touch your feet,<br />
because you are my teacher. She tells me her children<br />
think greatly of me, because their mother is able to earn<br />
a living by doing makeup. And that was the day I realised<br />
that something that is a waste to one, can be of a great<br />
deal to someone else.<br />
Kanika Maurya: It is indeed a heart warming experience. And how about your very first experience in the<br />
industry?<br />
Priyanka Makhijani: Well, surprisingly enough, my first break was not as a makeup artist. I started out as a<br />
communication manager for NIKITIES magazine. I used to take care of the CEO’s arrangements whenever he<br />
was busy or out of city. I used to be a big pain for my teachers in my college since I had to take calls for him every<br />
now and then. And then this one day, their makeup artist ditched at the last moment for a shoot and I was then<br />
asked if I could do the makeup. Although I was a bit scared because it all happened in such short notice, but In<br />
my heart I knew it was my moment. And eventually, everyone was so impressed by my work that they gave me<br />
a full time job as a makeup artist for the magazine.<br />
