About Special Occasion & Party Makeup
What I Do
I help you get that dreamy, unfiltered glow for your special day. My thing is skinwork - meaning, I make your skin look like the best version of itself, not just “done up”. I’m a bride-to-be myself, so I totally get how every moment matters.
The Process
- We start with a good old chit-chat. You tell me your vibe, show me your outfit, and we figure out what look works for you. I want the makeup to look amazing in person, not just in photos.
- I keep it real - if you want that natural engagement makeup look or want to skip foundation and lashes, I’m all for it.
- If you’re feeling a bit glam for Sangeet, we can dial it up with smokey eyes or duo-chrome shadows. Your call.
Makeup for Every Occasion
- Fresh Haldi makeup ideas? I can ditch the usual yellow tones if you want.
- Soft glam Sangeet makeup? I’ve got you.
- No-makeup look for Mehendi? Super easy and long-lasting, so you don’t have to worry about touch-ups.
- I also do makeup for your tribe - sisters, cousins, anyone who wants to look polished and party-ready.
Full Look, Top Brands
I team up with pro hairstylists so your hair and makeup are on point together. My kit’s packed with Charlotte Tilbury, MAC, Bobbi Brown, Rare Beauty - basically, only stuff I trust on my own skin.

My Story
Hey, I’m Ashmi! Mumbai is home, but my makeup kit’s seen airports from Delhi to Dubai. Weddings? Love the madness. I’ve helped so many brides glow—now I’m planning my own for 2025. 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.
My Work
Bridal & Festive Makeup - I do bridal makeup, pre-wedding (Haldi, Mehendi), sangeet, engagements, editorial and film looks. I travel for work!
Natural, Dewy Skinwork - My thing is natural bridal makeup - radiant, glowy base that looks like real skin, never cakey.
Custom Looks, Your Way - Want a classic red lip, smokey eye bridal makeup, or minimal wedding makeup? I follow your vibe, not a template.
Fun, Relaxed Experience - It’s not just makeup. We chat, laugh, and make sure you feel amazing and comfortable.
