About Commercial & Editorial Makeup
My Take on Skinwork for Shoots
I’m obsessed with creating real, glowing skin that holds up under studio lights and in front of the camera. My approach is all about an unfiltered vibe—base makeup that looks like skin, not a mask. I want the model, the product, and the story to do the talking, not just the makeup.
Working Together on Your Vision
I start every job by getting into your brief. We sit, chat, and break down your ideas so the final look matches exactly what you imagine. From brand campaigns to bold editorial concepts, this process is all about collaboration and getting those HD skin finish for photoshoots just right.
What I Do: From Simple to Statement
- Clean, subtle looks for corporate headshot makeup and advertising—think polished but still natural.
- Bold editorial makeup looks for fashion stories and magazine spreads. Love experimenting here, whether it’s modern, sleek, or a full glam moment.
- Beauty campaign makeup that pops for e-commerce shoots and brand promotions—I know how to make the product stand out too.
- Cinematic character transformation for film, ad shoots, or even those totally filmy Bollywood recreations.
Teamwork is Everything
I’m not flying solo—usually teaming up with hairstylists, photographers, and stylists, so the shoot flows smoothly and everyone’s on the same page. My goal is a fun, hassle-free set and a killer final image.
My Kit
I’ve got a mix of luxury and pro products for every skin type and tone. Whether it’s fresh and natural or bold and dramatic, my kit can handle whatever the shoot needs.

Trust me, I get every little stress and joy you’re feeling. When we’re chatting during your session, it’s not just work for me. It’s two brides swapping stories, sharing a moment. Super grateful I get to add a bit of sparkle to your big day.
