Lè Bèautique by Niketa

Our Story

Now pursuing her lifelong passion for makeup artistry, Niketa was recently one of the few makeup artists responsible for the flawless faces of models and designers at Guyana Fashion Week (GFW).

For five years, Niketa worked at an ophthalmology centre and then spent another two years as a phlebotomist before leaving to study in Jamaica. In 2013 after spending four years there she was flown home for an emergency surgery that left her battling depression.

She realized that the only way to deal with it was, according to her, to take it “one day at a time”. Applying makeup to her face helped her to feel better during that dark period and after many trials on herself and sister she made the bold decision and ventured into Le’ Cosme’tiques By Niketa, which she operated from online.
