Behind the Scenes of My Makeup Process
I believe makeup should feel like a second skin. Here is a look at my process and the moments I have shared with my clients, from studio shoots to wedding days.
Sun-kissed glow, vibrant eyes, and dreamy floral hair for a Haldi bride. It warms my heart to receive messages like this from my clients after their events.
A behind the scenes look from an ad shoot I did for ICICI Prudential. Creating a 'no-makeup' makeup look for the screen requires a special technique to look natural under bright lights.

About Behind the Scenes & Client Love
Creating a 'no-makeup' look for high-definition cameras requires a totally different approach than a wedding event. For commercial shoots, like my work with ICICI Prudential, I focus on sheer layers and strategic light reflection to ensure skin looks like skin, even under intense studio lights. It is the exact same attention to detail I bring to your wedding day preparation, ensuring you look like yourself, only more radiant.
My Philosophy: Skin First
When I work, my goal is never to mask your features but to enhance them. Whether you are a bride preparing for a traditional Nauvari drape or a client getting ready for a maternity shoot, my focus remains on the skin. I use premium products like MAC and NARS for liquid finishes, or Temptu for airbrushing, to ensure your base remains flawless for 12+ hours.
The Process
My process is simple, clean, and collaborative. I start with a detailed skin analysis, followed by intensive prep using pharmacy and luxury brands like Bioderma and Kiehl’s. This ensures your skin is hydrated and ready. During the application, I guide you through the process, explaining why a certain shade of lipstick or a specific lash style complements your outfit.
Why 'Behind the Scenes' Matters
These photos are more than just a portfolio. They show how I work in real-time. You will see me setting a Nath for a Maharashtrian bride, fixing a floral bun, or prepping for a high-intensity ad shoot. It is about transparency. When you book me, you are getting an artist who is present, attentive to the small details, and committed to making the preparation as stress-free as the main event.
Whether you are based in Mumbai, Pune, or Nashik, I bring this same standard of luxury minimal makeup to your doorstep.
