About Behind the Scenes: My Process & Transformations
I don't just apply makeup; I focus on skin prep that makes your glow look real, not painted on. Whether you are worried about textured skin or wondering if airbrush is right for your humid wedding venue, these clips show exactly how I tailor my base to your specific needs. Take a look at the techniques I use to keep your hair and outfit secure through the longest ceremonies so you can just enjoy the day.
My Approach: Real Skin, Not Mask
My philosophy is simple: less is more. Khup mahatvacha aahe ki (it’s very important that) you still see yourself in the mirror after the makeup is done. When you watch these transformations, you’ll see that I don't use heavy, cakey layers.
What you will see in my process:
- Skin-First Preparation: I treat makeup as skincare. If you have textured skin, I’ll reach for blush instead of highlighter to create a smooth, fresh radiance that looks healthy in person and on camera.
- Traditional & Modern Draping: I don't just do makeup. I love the art of draping, whether it’s a traditional Brahmani Nauvari, converting a six-yard saree into a lehenga, or ensuring your Nath stays perfectly in place.
- Handling Natural Hair: I believe in working with what you have. From defining natural curls to creating a classic Khopa with fresh Gajra, I ensure your hairstyle is comfortable and sturdy enough for the entire event.
- Long-Lasting Techniques: Whether I’m using HD products for a soft-glam look or airbrush for 12+ hours of sweat-proof wear, my focus is on longevity.
I travel to your location—be it in Mumbai, Thane, Navi Mumbai, Pune, or Nashik—to make the getting-ready process calm and focused entirely on you. When you book me, you’re not just getting a makeup artist; you’re getting someone who will be there to help with the final pin on your saree and the placement of your Mundavalya.
