About Special Occasion Makeup
Why I Do What I Do
Makeup for me is not about hiding, it’s about letting you shine. I’m not into selling unrealistic expectations - my thing is making you look timeless and feel like yourself, just a little extra glowy. Those early morning calls, packed schedules and traveling across Mumbai (and beyond) all feel worth it when someone lights up seeing their reflection.
Makeup for Every Occasion
I handle makeup for all kinds of special moments. For pre-wedding events, I love creating dewy makeup for roka mornings or dialing up the drama for Sangeet nights. If you’re a wedding guest, I make sure you look fresh and put together, and I know exactly how to work with mature skin without looking cakey. Festive eye makeup ideas? I’ve got you, from Diwali shimmer to Navratri vibes. Moms-to-be, I create soft glam maternity makeup that’s all about that radiant 'mom glow'.
My Signature Style
Skin that breathes is non-negotiable. I’m all about a flawless but natural base, whether you want a dewy finish or a soft matte. Eyes can be subtle or playful, from classic wings to pops of colour. I aim for looks that you’ll love for years, not just for the day.
How We Work Together
Before picking up a brush, I always chat about your outfit, the event vibe, and what you actually want. Whether you’re into chic minimal, bold glam or something in between, we’ll create a look that’s truly yours.
What’s In My Kit
I only use high-end brands - Charlotte Tilbury, NARS, MAC, Huda Beauty, Dior. Your look will last through hours of dancing, photos, and hugging relatives. I’m Mumbai-based but I travel for weddings and celebrations too.

My Story
Hey, I’m Vinal. Most people call me the luxury makeup girl, but trust me, it’s way more than that. I’ve lugged my glam kit from Mumbai to Goa, chasing early flights and those crazy call times. The best part? Seeing someone light up when they check their look in the mirror – that’s my real high. I’m big on sharing my quick GRWM hacks and skincare stuff too. Goa sunsets taught me to pause and refill my creative cup. For me, makeup’s about feeling good in your own skin – not just looking fancy.
