Professional Makeup Tips and Hair Tutorials
I’ve spent 14 years perfecting looks behind the chair, and now I’m pulling back the curtain on the tricks I use every day. Whether you want to beat the humidity or finally nail that perfect glow, these are the techniques I swear by.
In this video, I talk about one of my favorite topics: highlighter. I explain how to achieve a beautiful, radiant glow without looking overly shiny, and how to balance your highlight with your outfit and jewelry for the perfect finish.
Removing waterproof makeup can be tough, especially after a long wedding day. Here, I demonstrate the effectiveness of my favorite makeup remover and share my technique for gently and thoroughly cleansing your skin.
If you struggle with flat hair, this tutorial is for you. I demonstrate how to use a simple dusting powder to get instant, long-lasting volume at the roots, a trick I use constantly on set and for my clients.
About Makeup Tips & Tutorials
One thing I always tell my clients is that makeup removal is just as important as the application. I use micellar water with a gentle, patient soak technique to get rid of waterproof products without pulling at the skin—it is a non-negotiable step to keep your skin healthy after a long day of wearing glam makeup.
My Go-To Kit Secrets
I believe makeup should enhance what you already have, not cover it up. Here are a few professional insights I’ve picked up over my 14 years in the industry:
The Art of the Glow We all love that dewy, radiant look, but there is a fine line between 'sultry' and looking like a car headlight. The secret is balance. If your jewelry is heavy or your outfit is sequined and flashy, dial back the highlighter. Let your skin texture be the focus.
Beat the Mumbai Humidity Working in Mumbai means fighting the weather is half the battle. I rely heavily on gel-based moisturizers for prep—they create a smooth, 'second skin' base that holds up better than heavy creams in the heat. Waterproofing agents are also key if you are going to be under studio lights or out in the sun.
Hair Volume Hacks If you struggle with hair that falls flat, stop relying on heavy sprays that weigh you down. I often use dusting powder directly on the roots and massage it in with my fingers. It provides instant lift and texture that actually lasts. You can even use it when changing your parting for an immediate volume boost.
The Removal Ritual Clean skin is the foundation of good makeup. If you are wearing waterproof mascara or high-pigment liner, do not scrub your eyes. Saturate a cotton pad with micellar water, press it gently against your lash line, and let it soak for 20 seconds. This lifts the product off so you can wipe it away without irritating the delicate eye area.
