Instructor
Hi, my name is Tahmina also known as Elysian on Instagram. I am a Board Certified, State Licensed permanent makeup artist located in New Jersey. I am also the owner of Elysian360 Studio in Manville, NJ.
Why permanent makeup?
Women spend most of their “getting ready” time perfecting their brows. After all, brows make such a big difference in overall facial appearance.
My goal is to give women exactly that every day so they won’t have to spend 20 minutes a day perfecting their brows! Ombré brows are super low maintenance, only require a yearly touch up to keep the color and shape fresh.

Why My Course?
Attending Elysian360 Studio Academy will teach you everything you need to know about permanent makeup. Tahmina has implemented her style and the way she loves to work all in place!

Students
Elysian360 Studio Academy students will learn from the most basic to the most advanced way to create and enhance their client's brows.
