About Special Occasion Makeup
Why I Love Special Occasion Makeup
I get a big kick out of helping people feel their best for important days. Whether it’s your engagement, a friend’s wedding, or a big party, I want you looking and feeling like your best self. I mostly work in Bangalore and Davanagere, and I come to you so you can just relax and enjoy the process.
What I Do Best
- Party nights: Love doing a bold smokey eye with a nude lip for that classic, glamorous cocktail eye makeup vibe. Never goes out of style.
- Sangeet & festive stuff: I’m all for bright, bold eyes and lips that pop. If you’re wearing a saree, we can go full festive saree makeup look or keep it subtle, whatever feels right.
- Engagements: Usually, we keep it elegant. Natural engagement makeup with soft tones, long lashes, and a hint of glow works really well with traditional outfits.
- Baby showers: Focus is on fresh, radiant skin makeup for photos. I keep it light, so you look glowy and comfy for all those candid moments.
- Wedding guest looks: Simple, not overdone, just enhancing what you already have.
How I Work
I’m big on skin prep. If the base isn’t right, nothing sits well. My signature is a sharp winged liner, but I switch things up depending on what suits you best. I’ll always pick lip colours and shades that work with your skin tone and the event.
I try not to push trends too much. If you want something minimal, that’s exactly what I do. If you want a bit of drama, I’m all in. Mostly, I just want you to feel like yourself, but with a little extra sparkle.
