### My story

I’m the girl who’s got a drawer just for blushes, but honestly, it’s never just about makeup for me. It’s that moment when a bride sees herself and just smiles, like really smiles. Each bride brings her own vibe - like Vasav, super calm, or Tessa, who was clear: no cakey stuff. I love making people feel good in their own skin. It’s more than a job, it’s a bit of love in every look.

### My work

- **Makeup & hair for weddings and special events**: I do makeup and hairstyling for weddings, sangeets, haldi, receptions, baby showers - anywhere you want to feel special.
- **Minimal bridal makeup, always**: My thing is soft, natural glowing skin makeup. No heavy layers, just you, but brighter.
- **It's your vibe, your look**: I listen first. If you want minimal, I’m here for it. We’ll figure it out together so it feels like you.
- **Long-lasting, comfy finish**: Good skin prep, thin layers, and you can dance all night - your makeup stays, your skin breathes.
- **Love for destination weddings**: Based in Mumbai, but I’ll happily pack my kit and travel anywhere for your big day.
