Look ‘n Learn Session by Dominique Roberts in Mumbai
Hungarian make-up master, Dominique Roberts brought his flair for innovative and imaginative looks to the Indian shores with an exciting training opportunity for make-up professionals in Mumbai. Beauty Launchpad India, the official media partner of the 3-day event organised by The Institute of Hairdressers & Beauticians (IHB) India, brings you an exclusive report straight from Dominique’s classroom.
Multiple OMC Hair World award-winning make-up artist Dominque Roberts was recently in India, offering two exciting training opportunities for makeup professionals and enthusiasts in Mumbai. The Hungarian OMC World Champion was brought to the country by IHB India to conduct a 1-day Look ‘n Learn Session as well as a 2-day Hands-on Workshop, at Sofitel Mumbai and SVJ Academy, on 3rd-5th January 2020.
Dominique, the 2018 OMC World Champion in Bridal Makeup, created trendy looks that demonstrated his in-depth knowledge of international styles. He created elegant yet traditional Indian bridal looks as well as sophisticated and sleek runway looks that showcase his range of unique skills. At the Hands-On Workshop, he not only guided the students through a demonstration but also mentored them while they recreated the look.
Speaking about his experience in India, Dominique said, “I like the Indian culture, food, dresses, jewellery, and fashion. I really enjoyed the time with the students as they were open to new ideas and had a keen interest to learn. I like the darker skin tones as every colour looks attractive on it. During my training sessions, I always try to demonstrate some basics along with my signature techniques, so that students feel comfortable trying out something new for the first time. As for my techniques, practice is the key. Practising the art is important for anyone looking to perfect their make-up skills.”
