Makeup is my thing, and honestly, nothing beats watching a bride see herself all dressed up for her wedding. I even did my own bridal look, so I know just how important it is to trust your makeup artist. ### Your Look, Your Way My whole approach is about what you want: - If natural bridal makeup or that soft dewy glow is your vibe, we’ll keep it simple and fresh. - Full glam, with bold eyes and sparkle? Also totally possible. - Show me your references or just tell me what feels right - I’ll help you figure it out, no stress. ### All Your Wedding Events Sorted Every event gets its own look: - Engagement: Soft glam, romantic curls, or a simple wedding day look. - Mehendi and varpooje: Relaxed and colourful or classic, depending on your mood. For varpooje, I bring out that proper South Indian bridal makeup feel. - Muhurtham: This is where I go all in with the HD bridal makeup look for that flawless finish, long-lasting for those saree moments. Hair can be a kondai (bun), Poola Jada (fresh flower braid), or any style you want, with all the jewellery and florals. - Reception: We switch it up with a more modern, glam look - think messy buns, shimmer, and sculpted features. ### Travel? No Problem Based in Bangalore, but I’ll go wherever your wedding takes you. My kit and I are always packed and ready. ## Highlights Browse through Nikhitha Acharya's best work. ### [Featured](https://mytribe.in/makeoverbyniki/bridal-makeup-hair/featured) - ![A classic South Indian bridal look, focusing on radiant skin and captivating eyes.
