ALOR SETAR: Her deep interest in makeup has driven a woman from Kuala Sungai near here to venture into beauty business at the age of 18.
Puteri Nur Syahirah Fazin, 24, who started to get really into makeup when she was in Form One said she had her first customer at an early age of 15 and never looked back ever since.
“It was for dinner makeup and I was paid RM30 for that. Over time, I dared myself to do makeup for wedding.
“After I finished my SPM (Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia) I decided to open my first makeup studio called ‘Bunga Hati’ at the Wantas Business Complex in 2014 by utilising my own savings from providing makeup services,” she told Bernama.
Sharing her experience during the early years of running the studio, Puteri Nur Syahirah said she faced multiple challenges including financial constraints but the strong support from her parents and siblings had motivated her to move forward.
In 2016, she moved her studio to the current location at the Mergong Jaya Business Complex here that provides a larger space and more convenient facilities.
Puteri Nur Syahirah said one of her most memorable experiences was when she was given the trust and opportunity to organise a reality show programme “Ikonista Muslimah” at the Kedah state level.
In order to excel competing alongside more experienced makeup artists, Puteri Nur Syahirah said she always kept herself abreast of the latest makeup trends and techniques.
“Every job has its own challenges, it is important for us to remain positive and optimistic. To me, in order to success in this field, we must always improve or maintain the quality of our service.
“I also prefer using quality and branded makeup products to achieve better customer's satisfaction,” she said adding that she would always find ways to improve herself by attaining new skills and knowledge.
Puteri Nur Syahirah said she was also given the trust to do makeup for local artists such as Ifa Raziah, Shima, Safura and Sasha Saidin.
She also aspires to expand her career prospects and open a makeup academy in the future.
In order to contribute back to society, Puteri Nur Syahirah is offering free make-up classes to orphans as well as children and school leavers of underprivileged families to help them improve their lives through beauty business.
Those who are interested to join the class can contact Puteri Nur Syahirah at 011-26224577 or 011-40703588.
