About this collection
Living in Mumbai means humidity is a constant challenge, so I focus heavily on sweat-proof base techniques for every look I create. Whether you are wearing a heavy bridal lehenga or opting for a soft party glam, my priority is ensuring your makeup stays flawless, dewy, and comfortable from the first photo to the last dance.
This collection represents the heart of my work, and it is pure 'Ishq hai yeh' (heartfelt love). You will find everything here from traditional Maharashtrian bridal looks to modern cocktail transformations.
My Approach to Your Look
Whether it is a classic Bengali style, a trendy cut-crease eye look, or a bold graphic liner for a party, I tailor every step to your features and your outfit. I do not believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. For my brides, I emphasize skin prep with high-end serums and professional base techniques to ensure your look lasts for 12+ hours under stage lights and camera flashes.
Technique & Variety
I am obsessed with the details. From using airbrush for that seamless, long-wear finish to creating detailed SFX effects for shoots, I love to experiment with color and texture. My work spans across various styles:
- Bridal: Traditional, airbrush, and heavy-duty glam.
- Party: Soft glam, smokey eyes, and bold lips for festivals or cocktail nights.
- Creative: Bold graphic liners and fantasy-inspired looks.
- Specialized: Mature skin makeup and corrective techniques to enhance your natural beauty.
Where To Find Me
I am based in Mumbai and travel to venues across the city. You can also visit me at my academy locations in Mira Road, Jogeshwari, or Bandra for a personal consultation. Let’s create a look that makes you say, 'Kaisi lag rahi hoon?' (How am I looking?) with pure confidence.
