My style is all about keeping things true to you, but still making sure you look amazing on camera. I’m known for my timeless soft glam makeup, but I can switch gears from natural portrait makeup to bold, creative editorial makeup depending on what you want. ### Hair & Makeup That Match For me, hair and makeup need to vibe together. I do both, so your whole look is sorted – whether it’s a sharp bun for an editorial vibe or soft curls for a sweet portrait. I’ll tweak everything so it suits your shoot and story. ### Shoots I Work On - **Brand & Commercial**: I love getting into a brand’s moodboard and bouncing ideas. If you want something minimal, think perfect blush and glow, or if you want something quirky or themed, I’m game for that too. I make sure your skin looks flawless camera-ready, so editing is almost not needed. - **Fashion & Editorial**: Here’s where we can get creative – from high-fashion twists on desi styles to glowy summer looks or dramatic wings. I match hair with makeup, so the whole vibe is tight. - **Portraits & Portfolios**: My aim is to enhance, not hide. I balance soft lips and defined eyes for a clean, modern look. ### Skin First, Always My thing is solid skin work. I want you to look fresh, glow from within, and never feel caked up. Whether the photos are raw or polished, your skin will look real and luminous. ### How I Work Every shoot is a team effort for me. Just tell me your ideas, your mood, or even your doubts – and we’ll build your look together. ## Highlights Browse through Maitreyi Kotia's best work. ### [Featured](https://mytribe.in/makeupbymaitreyi/photoshoot-editorial-makeup/featured) - ![This is where we get creative.

You know, most brides just want to look like themselves—maybe a bit extra radiant, but still real. I’m all about timeless soft glam, nothing OTT, just you feeling gorgeous and comfy. Won the WeddingSutra Award (still can’t believe it!), but honestly, the best bit is those little messages from families saying I kept it real. That’s what matters. I’ve worked everywhere from Delhi to Dubai, but making someone feel truly themselves? That’s the win. ### My work - **Bridal, Sangeet, Mehendi & Reception Makeup**: I do every kind of bridal makeup, plus sangeet, mehendi glam, reception, and looks for the mother of the bride. - **Timeless Soft Glam Style**: My thing is skin-focused, softly defined makeup. Real skin, real beauty. Not too much, not too little. - **Personalized Process**: We chat first, look at your mood board, and figure out your vibe. Classic red, dreamy pastels, whatever feels like you. - **Skin-First Technique**: No heavy layers, no harsh lines. I use buildable base products for that fresh, glowy look. Your face, just the best version. ## More services from Maitreyi Kotia - [Special Occasion Makeup](https://mytribe.in/makeupbymaitreyi/special-occasion-makeup) · ₹3,000-8,000 per face (estimate) - [Bridal & Wedding Makeup](https://mytribe.in/makeupbymaitreyi/bridal-wedding-makeup) · ₹15-40K per event (estimate) ## Experts similar to Maitreyi Kotia on mytribe - [Commercial & Editorial Makeup by The Ritika Touch](https://mytribe.in/theritikatouch/commercial-editorial-makeup) · ₹2,500-8,000 per look (estimate) · National Capital Region - [Fashion & Commercial Makeup by Amisha Anand](https://mytribe.in/amisha.anand93/fashion-commercial-makeup) · ₹4-12K per look/session (estimate) · National Capital Region - [Photoshoot & Editorial Makeup by Makeup Tales by Anamika Pal](https://mytribe.in/makeup_tales_by_anamika/photoshoot-editorial-makeup) · ₹1,800-7,000 per look (estimate) · National Capital Region - [Commercial & Editorial Makeup by Saakshi](https://mytribe.in/ssencebeauty/commercial-editorial-makeup) · ₹5-15K per face/session (estimate) · National Capital Region - [Special Occasion Makeup & Styling by Ridhima Gupta Artistry](https://mytribe.in/ridhimaguptaartistry/special-occasion-makeup-styling) · ₹2,500-6,000 per person per occasion (estimate) · National Capital Region - [Special Occasion Makeup by Saaba Chandna](https://mytribe.in/saabaaroramakeup/special-occasion-makeup) · ₹3,500-9,000 per person per occasion (estimate) · Saaba Arora Makeup - [Celebrity & Editorial Makeup by Sakshi Sood](https://mytribe.in/muahbysakshi/celebrity-editorial-makeup) · ₹12-35K per session (estimate) · National Capital Region - [Special Occasion & Party Makeup by Artistry Makeovers by Meinu](https://mytribe.in/artistrymakeoversbymeinu/special-occasion-party-makeup) · ₹2,000-6,000 per face (estimate) · National Capital Region - [Celebrity & Editorial Makeup by Piyush Vij](https://mytribe.in/piyush_makeovers/celebrity-editorial-makeup) · ₹12-25K per makeup session (estimate) · National Capital Region - [Special Occasion Makeup by Suprriya Singh](https://mytribe.in/singhsupriyaa2/special-occasion-makeup) · ₹2,500-6,000 per face (estimate) · Delhi - [Special Occasion Makeup & Hairstyling by Sonia Kalra](https://mytribe.in/ttheinnerglow/special-occasion-makeup-hairstyling) · ₹3-18K per client (estimate) · National Capital Region ## Book To book Maitreyi Kotia, message mytribe on WhatsApp: [Chat on WhatsApp](https://wa.me/916360004054?text=Hi%2C%20I'm%20looking%20for%20Photoshoot%20%26%20Editorial%20Makeup%20by%20Maitreyi%20Kotia.)
