About Special Occasion Makeup & Hair
My Makeup Philosophy
I see makeup as a way to highlight what’s already beautiful about you. I’m not into making people look like someone else - I just want to add a bit of sparkle so you feel confident and real, with that glowing, glass skin makeup look if you’re up for it. I lean towards soft glam party makeup because it’s timeless but doesn’t feel too heavy.
Who I Work With
My work isn’t only for brides - anyone in your fam or friend circle who wants to stand out for a big moment can reach out. I do looks for:
- Sangeet, Haldi, Varpooje, and Kannadiga muhuratam functions
- Seemantha (baby shower), maternity shoots
- House warming, birthdays, nights out
No need for an excuse to look fab!
Signature Styles & Process
I’m all about:
- Soft Glam: glowy skin, flushed cheeks, defined eyes
- Glass Skin: serious skin prep, dewy and radiant
- Full Glam: smokey eyes, contour, bold finishes
- ‘No-Makeup’ Makeup: ekdam natural (completely natural), for when you want something super simple
I start every look with skin prep, using top-notch products like Charlotte Tilbury and Embryolisse. Foundation always matches your skin tone - I’m picky about that. Everything from lip shade to eye makeup is tweaked for you, your outfit, and the vibe of the event.
Hair & Extras
Hair is just as important for me. My team and I do updos, braided buns, Hollywood waves, ponytails, messy braids - whatever feels right. We love adding flowers, pearls or hair crystals for that extra oomph.
I keep little comforts in my kit too - numbing cream for heavy earrings, straws for lipstick. It’s these small things that make you feel relaxed and ready for your special day.

My Story
I’m Deepa, makeup artist, CEO, educator, and honestly, a bit of a dreamer. I still get goosebumps thinking about Likhitha’s wedding - she trusted me, no trial, just faith. When she saw her look, all smiles, I knew this is what I’m meant for. My art’s taken me from South Indian muhuratams to Christian weddings, sometimes outstation. Every time my work pops up on a big screen, flawless, I feel proud. It’s not just a job, it’s my heart.
