Signature Makeup & Hair Portfolio
A glimpse into my favorite projects, from high-stakes commercial campaigns to intimate bridal moments. I love showcasing the diversity in my work.
This is the signature "second skin" makeup look I am known for, created for a Nexxus campaign with the wonderful Sobhita Dhulipala. The focus is on a fresh, dewy glow that looks natural and radiant on camera, paired with soft, voluminous hair for a truly glamorous feel.
A complete bridal look that feels both classic and modern. I focused on creating a flawless base that would last all day, with defined eyes and a soft lip color to complement the stunning red lehenga. The hair is styled in a clean, elegant updo to keep the focus on the bride's features and her beautiful veil.
A fun and energetic commercial I worked on for Tinder India. This project required creating youthful, party-ready hair and makeup that looked great under dynamic lighting and captured a vibrant, authentic vibe for the dating app's campaign.
I love diving into vintage looks, and this Gatsby-inspired style was for a special cocktail party theme. I created classic 1920s finger waves with a modern twist of hair glitter, paired with a dramatic winged eyeliner and glowing skin to capture the opulence of the era.
Here I share my professional secrets for creating sweat-proof and humidity-proof makeup, a must for anyone in a climate like Mumbai's. This tutorial covers my layering techniques, from skin prep to setting sprays, to ensure your makeup stays put all day long.
A look from a fashion campaign for S&N by Shantanu Nikhil's cricket club collection. The brief was preppy and chic, so I styled the hair with a classic headband and created a clean, polished makeup look that felt fresh and effortless for this outdoor shoot.
This is one of my favorite creative challenges. For a client's annual costume party, I designed and executed this "surprised emotion" character makeup, transforming her into a living art piece emerging from a cake. It shows how I can bring any imaginative concept to life.
A little behind the scenes look at my process for creating a bridal hairstyle. Here, I am setting soft waves and getting ready to place the dupatta for a bride, ensuring every detail is perfect for her big day.
About Featured
My signature "second skin" approach is a technical strategy, not just an aesthetic choice. Whether we are shooting under harsh studio lights or dealing with Mumbai's humidity, I use specific layering techniques with gel-based moisture and powder sealing to ensure your look stays fresh and radiant without ever feeling heavy or cakey on camera.
After 14 years in the industry, my portfolio spans everything from gritty editorial fashion to the emotional precision of bridal makeup. I treat every face as a unique canvas, which is why you won't find a copy-paste style here.
Why my approach works:
- Adaptability: I thrive in the chaos of a film set or a busy wedding morning. My experience ranges from major commercial campaigns like Tinder and Nexxus to personal bridal stories. I know how to pivot quickly when the brief changes or the lighting shifts.
- Technical Rigor: Beauty isn't just about looking good in the mirror; it's about how it holds up on camera and in person. I prioritize skin health through customized prep, ensuring your makeup survives long shoot days and high-humidity environments.
- Collaborative Spirit: I don't just show up and apply product. I prefer to be involved in the look design, collaborating with photographers, stylists, and brides to ensure the makeup complements the wardrobe and the overall vibe of the project.
Whether you are looking for that clean, natural "no-makeup" glow for an ad shoot or something more dramatic for your cocktail night, the goal is always the same: ensuring you feel authentic and empowered in your own skin. Take a look at my different galleries to see how I translate these techniques into specific styles, from vintage hair to high-fashion glam.
