Shantika has always had a love for art and come from a family where it's been, in some form, a constant presence whether visual, through drawing and design, or performing art through music, writing or otherwise. Art has and will always be a creative outlet for her, thus it seems gravitation toward makeup art and the world of beauty would be natural and inevitable. ​ Shantika is dually licensed in Esthetics in both South Carolina and North Carolina, earning her licensure in 2016. She specializes in precision brow styling and beauty makeup, with her signature being what she calls "believable beauty".​ "I don't want people to just say your makeup and brows are pretty. I want them to say 'wow you're a beautiful woman', and I want YOU to feel it." "Beauty is my ministry." With a passion to serve woman with excellence, professionalism, and an obsession with witnessing the extra sparkle in their eyes when they feel relaxed, pampered, and like their most beautiful selves, Shantika released the Beauty by Shantika Signature Brow Collection in 2020. The collection includes the essentials for precision brow styling to help women simplify their daily brow routine and mastery at home. "You'll be amazed at how a simple brow grooming will enhance your beauty and your esteem."
