A short glimpse into a festive look I created for Tanvi Negi. The focus was on warm, sunset-toned eyes and a radiant base that glows, perfect for this Diwali-themed shoot.
A dramatic black and white shot of Tanvi Negi. For monochrome photography, I focus on creating depth and dimension with contour and highlights, ensuring the facial structure is beautifully defined.
This look for Tanvi Negi was all about a cool, edgy vibe. I created a smokey eye and a nude lip, paired with clean skin, to complement the leather and denim styling for a midnight-themed shoot.
Another angle from the editorial shoot with Tanvi. The lighting here catches the subtle glow on her skin, a key part of my 'unreal skin' technique that looks great even in moody, low-light settings.

For this shot, I used a wet-look ponytail and luminous skin to create a sleek and scandalous vibe. The makeup is minimal but impactful, focusing on a glossy, high-shine finish.

About Celebrity & Commercial Lookbooks
On-set makeup requires a completely different approach than a standard wedding look. Studio lights are unforgiving, often washing out skin or highlighting texture issues. My process focuses on heavy-duty color correction and a refined, satin base that eliminates ashiness and stands up to hours of flash photography, ensuring your skin looks hydrated and real, even in high-definition.
Commercial makeup is ultimately about teamwork. When I walk onto a set with brands like Suta Bombay or Andham, my job is to align my artistry with the photographer’s lighting and the art director's vision. Whether we are shooting a lookbook that demands a clean, minimal aesthetic or an editorial piece requiring bold, high-fashion elements, the goal is consistency.
The Technical Side of On-Set Makeup
I prioritize long-wear formulations that don’t separate under hot lights. For studio campaigns, I use strobe creams and targeted contouring to add dimension to the face, ensuring the subject pops on camera. I avoid heavy layering; my signature 'unreal skin' finish ensures the makeup looks filtered but remains authentic. If the moodboard calls for a wet look or vintage glam, I have specific techniques to achieve that aesthetic without compromising the base.
Why Logistics Matter
Commercial shoots are often fast-paced, with strict timelines for look changes. My 8-hour commercial service includes continuous monitoring. I am right there behind the camera to manage sweat, fix flyaways, and adjust makeup intensity if we switch from hard, directional lighting to softer, ambient light. This saves valuable post-production time for the photographer.
Inclusive Artistry
I work with all skin tones. My kit is stocked to ensure deep to fair complexions get the right color correction. I don't use a 'one shade fits all' approach. Whether you are an influencer building a portfolio or a brand planning a campaign, my work is designed to reduce stress and maximize results on screen.
Anushaka
I’m Anushaka. I don’t believe in masking your features; I believe in making you look like the most radiant version of yourself under the intense glare of studio lights. Whether we are shooting a high-fashion look or a commercial campaign, my priority is keeping your skin looking real, hydrated, and perfect for the lens.
