Sara Shakeel Quits Her Job As A Dentist To Start Her Career As A Glitter Artist
We all experience professional burnout at one point in our lives, but for this Pakistani dentist, it led her down to the path of self-discovery where she found her love for photo editing.
Sara Shakeel, who is fully self-taught, spends her time fixing boring old photos with glitters; making them sparkle, and shine with crystals, rainbows, and diamonds as a means to find healing from her burnout. Starting out by covering stretch marks with glitters under the hashtag #glitterstretchmarks, to encourage positive body image, Sara's photo manipulation skill had gained popularity launching her foray into full-time artistry; from filling teeth to filling beautiful photos of people, landscapes, and animals with shiny diamonds, crystals, and rainbows.
Her photo ideas have so far gathered lots of attention with over 500k followers on IG (@saraShakeel) and Sarah works with luxury brands like Emirates, Bally, and Swarovski.
Scroll down below and check her stunning pictures for yourself!

Brooklyn bridge! Wow I wish that was real. I love glittery things :D
We don’t need to buy swavarski crystals when we can get our photographs altered !! :)
That would most definitely make riding the subway much more interesting. Glitter graffiti!
Yes, that is what a good Starbucks coffee tastes like to me, pure bliss!
Love that flair off of the engine. Surprised no famous celebrity hasn't tried this style yet, haha.
This image is only fitting especially after coming from a previous job at the Dentist office
A great way to deal with burnout. These are amazing. Glitter is shiny and beautiful to look at, especially in these pictures, but I still hate the real (not photoshopped) glitter because it's a hell to deal with in real life and it's not that good for the environment either
It's all pretty and all- but how the heck is there a viable market for this? How does this get the bills paid?
It says "to start career as glitter artist" ?? Hmm, yes I would like to know how to make money glittering everything! I've been doing it for years! Haha
Load More Replies...You're talented and thanks for sharing. Dentists have the highest second rate of suicide.... You did something to make a difference in your life and it works so much
It's probably because they are always looking down in the mouth...
