About Featured
I focus on skin preparation first, using professional brands like MAC and PAC to build a base that is both long-lasting and breathable. Whether I am styling a bride for her wedding or a model for a fashion shoot, my goal is to enhance your natural features rather than mask them with heavy layers.
This portfolio covers the range of work I do, from high-pressure editorial shoots to intimate wedding ceremonies. My signature soft glam style is consistent across these categories because it prioritizes skin texture and longevity.
My Approach
- Skin-First Makeup: I treat makeup as a technical application. I use high-shine setting sprays and carefully selected foundations to ensure your skin looks radiant without appearing cakey or heavy.
- Versatile Hairstyling: Whether you need a structured knot bun for an editorial look, soft Hollywood waves for a cocktail party, or a classic updo for a wedding, I tailor the volume and texture to suit your outfit and occasion.
- Brand & Event Experience: My work with platforms like GQ and designers like Kalki Fashion has taught me how to deliver professional-grade results under studio lights and on-location at weddings. I bring that same level of detail to every client, regardless of the setting.
Logistics & Planning
I am based in Mumbai, but I travel across India for projects. For bridal clients, I recommend booking a trial at my Bandra studio. This allows us to test foundation matches, experiment with hair volume, and align on your vision before the big day. If you are preparing for a group event, I coordinate with the team to keep the timeline smooth so no one is left waiting.

I’m Deepti. I’m based in Mumbai but I travel anywhere for a shoot or a wedding. I don’t believe in heavy, caked-on makeup; I want you to look like yourself, just polished, radiant, and ready for the camera.
