This is essential for Muhurtham ceremonies where you face the heat of the Homam and long photo sessions. I also ensure your silk saree is pleated and pinned using 20 pins so it stays perfectly in place throughout the event. ### My Approach to Muhurtham Makeup My goal is to create a look that feels authentic. I don't believe in masking your features. Instead, I focus on enhancing them with a finish that lasts until the final ritual is complete. #### The Technical Details * **Base Application:** I use an HD matte foundation that is both sweat-proof and waterproof. This prevents the makeup from melting or creasing due to temple heat or long hours under stage lights. * **Prep:** Every session begins with a CTM (Cleansing, Toning, Moisturizing) routine and hydration masks to ensure your skin is prepped for long-wear products. * **Eye & Contour:** I use jet black gel liners and cream contouring, which are designed to show up clearly in flash photography without looking heavy. #### Traditional Hairstyling & Draping * **Floral Work:** I specialize in securing heavy floral arrangements, including traditional semicircular Veni or a long Jada (plait), using U-pins and nets. These stay secure regardless of movement. * **Saree Draping:** Kanjeevaram and silk sarees require specific handling. I use pre-pleating and box-fold ironing techniques to ensure the saree falls gracefully. Whether it is a standard drape or a complex Madisar style, I use 20 pins to ensure stability so you can move, sit, and walk without worrying about the fabric. #### Travel & Booking I travel to venues across Bangalore, Tumkur, and Mysore. If you have a specific Muhurtham timing, please let me know when you inquire so I can coordinate the start time accordingly. ## About Arpitha Gowda I’m Arpitha, and I believe your wedding makeup should make you feel like yourself, not a different person.
