About Special Occasion Makeup
Bringing Your Celebration Look to Life
When you want to look your best for a big day, I’m here to make it happen. Whether you’re a wedding guest, heading to a festival, or just want to feel confident at a party, I come to your location in Mumbai or Navi Mumbai and get you ready.
Looks That Actually Suit You
I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all. We’ll talk through your vibe, outfit, and the event, then pick what works for you:
- Minimal siders makeup if you want that natural, fresh-faced glow. I keep it light, super clean, and let your skin show through.
- HD party makeup for those who love a bit of glam. Flawless base, glowing skin, and makeup that stays put even when you’re dancing.
- Bold and dramatic looks for when you want your eyes or lips to be the main event. Smokey eyes, sharp cut creases - I’m up for it.
For Any Occasion
From wedding functions like Haldi or Engagements, to festive glam looks for Diwali and Karwachauth, I’ve got experience with all kinds of celebrations. Photoshoots and themed parties (Halloween, Christmas) are totally welcome too.
All-In-One Styling
I handle hair styling myself - messy buns, soft waves, sleek ponytails, whatever you feel like. Need your saree or lehenga draped? I coordinate with draping artists so you don’t have to stress.
My Makeup Kit
I use only professional brands like MAC, Charlotte Tilbury, Estée Lauder, and PAC. I want you to look great but also feel comfortable all day - no cakey faces here.

Whether it’s a bride or a model, I keep it clean, polished, and just right for the moment.
