About this collection
The secret to a great South Indian bridal look isn't just the makeup; it's how your saree is draped. I personally handle the box-fold pleating for your Kanjeevaram or 9-yard saree, ensuring the pins are secure so you can sit, stand, and move comfortably through long, traditional rituals without worrying about your pleats shifting.
Being a Bangalore-based artist, I understand the unique requirements of South Indian weddings. Whether you are having a morning Muhurtham or an evening reception, my focus is on creating a look that lasts through the heat, the bright lights, and the long rituals.
My Approach to Traditional Bridal Beauty
I believe in using high-quality products like MAC and Huda Beauty to build a base that withstands the warmth of the homa fire and humidity. I don't believe in 'trendy' makeup that looks dated in a few years. Instead, I focus on:
- Skin Prep: A full CTM (Cleansing, Toning, Moisturizing) routine and color correction to ensure a seamless finish.
- Traditional Styling: Expert fixing of temple jewellery, maang tikkas, and waist belts to complement your Kanjeevaram or 9-yard silk saree.
- Hair: Advanced braiding techniques, integration of fresh jasmine flowers, and secure placement of your Poola Jada.
- Body Polishing: I also handle concealing for the neck, back, and arms to ensure a perfectly even tone for your wedding photos.
My clients often tell me that they appreciate my speed (tumba bega) and dedication to getting the details right. Getting ready should be a calm, happy part of your day, not a stressful one. I travel to your venue anywhere in Bengaluru, so you can relax in your own space while I take care of your look.
