## About Special Occasion Makeup

### My Approach

I get why people worry about looking too made up. My style is all about makeup that feels like your own skin. It's not about masking who you are - just making sure you look your best, both in photos and in person.

### Signature Style: Timeless Soft Glam

I lean towards classy, understated looks. 'Soft glam' for me means makeup that's fresh, comfortable, and lets you shine through. I use lightweight products, so your skin never feels heavy or cakey. You can go for a dewy glow or a soft matte finish - both look flawless without hiding your real texture.

### How I Work

- I start with skin, making sure it's hydrated and glowing. Product builds gently, nothing feels piled on.
- Eyes are flexible: want a little shimmer, winged liner, or classic kohl? We’ll figure out what suits you. I prefer soft, individual lashes for a natural flutter.
- Contour is subtle - just enough to flatter, not change your face. I match colors to undertones so nothing looks off.

### Looks for Every Role

If you're a mother of the bride/groom, I know how to make mature skin look radiant and lifted, with a graceful glow that stays put. Sisters, bridesmaids, or guests get fresh, long-lasting event makeup - think morning rituals to night parties, always photo-ready. Special occasions like godbharai (baby shower) or awards night? I’ll create a soft glam look for celebrations that fits the mood.

### Your Style, Your Say

This is teamwork. Bring your inspiration pics, tell me what you love or don’t. Share your usual makeup routine. We’ll take your outfit, your vibe, and make your special occasion makeup truly yours.

## Meet your expert

[Maitreyi Kotia](https://mytribe.in/makeupbymaitreyi)

### My story

Hey, I’m Maitreyi. 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.
