- Meet the Founder – Bhavna R. D.
Cosmetologist • Trichologist • Educator • Nail Artist • International Brand Make-Up Artist • Global Trainer • Beauty Entrepreneur
Behind the success of Bhavi’s Fashion & Art Academy stands a woman whose life story is a perfect blend of grit, grace, talent, and unstoppable ambition — Bhavna R. D. A certified Celebrity Skin Cosmetologist, Trichologist, International Brand Make-Up Artist & Educator Trainer, Celebrity Nail Art Designer & Nail Educator Trainer, and an Internationally Certified Global Trainer, she is one of those rare multi-skilled professionals who excel in Advanced Skin Aesthetics, Professional Make-Up, Nail Art, Lash Artistry, and Semi-Permanent Make-Up (SPMU).
Along with her artistic mastery, she also holds strong academic accomplishments — she is a Chartered Financial Analyst (ICFAI University) and has completed her MBA in Finance from Welingkar Institute (Distance Learning), blending business intelligence with creative brilliance.
- A Journey Shaped by Strength & Values
Bhavna’s biggest inspiration was her father — a man who taught her never to bend before adversity. He gifted her the values of determination, dignity, and self-worth. Carrying these powerful lessons, she grew into a confident young woman who excelled both academically and personally.
During her time at SNDT Women’s University, she was admired for her leadership, intellect, and simplicity. Her dedication earned her the prestigious role of General Secretary, where she passionately worked for student welfare. This leadership role was not just a title — it was the starting point of the mentor and guide she would eventually become.
- A Unique Blend of Academics & Artistry
While pursuing her Chartered Financial Analysis from ICFAI, Bhavna discovered that even though she excelled in finance, her real passion lived elsewhere — in the world of beauty, creativity, and nail artistry.
What began as a childhood fascination with nails grew into her signature artistry. Her clean strokes, bold concepts, and aesthetic sensibilities gained rapid popularity on social media. Her talent soon earned her a place as Jury Member at SNDT College for a highly prestigious Nail Art Competition — an achievement few emerging artists experience early in their careers.
- National Recognition & the Rise of a Beauty Professional
A defining milestone came when Bhavna’s work was recognized by CUCCIO, a globally respected nail brand. Within just one year of stepping into the industry, she achieved what many take years to accomplish — a National Award from an International Beauty Brand.
Her hunger to learn more pushed her deeper into the beauty domain. From skin to makeup to nails, she mastered:
- Advanced Skin Aesthetic Treatments
- Bridal & Creative Make-Up
- Lash Extensions
- Semi-Permanent Makeup (SPMU)
- Nail Art & Nail Extensions
- Beauty Therapy & Salon Techniques
Her professional training from VLCC polished her skills further, shaping her into a multi-domain beauty expert.
- Respected Industry Guest, Jury & Motivational Speaker
Bhavna’s excellence expanded her presence beyond the studio and into educational institutions & major events. She has been:
- Jury at SNDT College for Nail Art Competitions
- Honourable Guest at NSAM Fashion Institute for their Grand Fashion Show
- Sponsored Partner & Chief Guest at Rohidas Premier League (RPL)
- Chief Guest & Motivational Speaker at Mnathan Education Youth Foundation, guiding young students about industry trends, career paths, and skill-based learning
These recognitions reflect not just her talent but also the respect she commands in the beauty and fashion industry.

To her, students are not just learners.
They are creators. Dreamers. Future professionals.
