About Bridal Makeup & Styling
My Style: Comfortable & You
I care most about making sure you still feel like yourself on your wedding day. Not everyone wants heavy makeup, and honestly, simple wedding day looks can be just as beautiful. If you want a natural bridal makeup vibe or something bolder, we’ll figure it out together. Trust is important to me, so I always suggest we do a vibe check first - you need to feel chill with your makeup artist.
Full Bridal Service, Wherever You Are
I come to your venue so you can get ready stress-free. My bridal service covers:
- Custom makeup (HD or matte options for a flawless HD makeup for brides effect, but never cakey)
- Hair styling (from classic braids with flowers to soft curls or messy buns)
- Saree draping and hair styling (pre-pleating and ironing if you want to save time)
- Jewellery help so nothing feels loose or awkward
Looks For Every Function
Each event has its own mood:
- Engagements: Fresh, bright eyes, natural base - perfect for photos
- Muhurtham: South Indian wedding look, or Maharashtrian/Mangalorean styles to match your saree and jewellery
- Reception: Glam skin, elegant updos, or open curls for a party feel
My Approach
I’m big on minimal wedding day makeup, especially if you don’t usually wear much. But if you want a more defined style, that’s cool too. We’ll have a trial session (preferably a few months before) to lock in what makes you feel good and avoid last-minute stress.
Real Talk
I won’t promise miracles, but I’ll make sure you look and feel like the best version of yourself. Let’s keep it real, comfortable, and fun.
