I rely on buildable, hydrating bases rather than full-coverage matte formulas, and I ensure the color palette matches the specific vibrancy of your outfit—whether it's the gold tilla work on a phiran or the bright florals of a haldi set—so the makeup feels like a natural extension of your look. ### Why Daytime Makeup Requires a Different Approach Morning and afternoon functions call for a shift in technique. Natural light is unforgiving; it highlights texture and exposes heavy product buildup. My process for Mehendi and Haldi looks focuses on creating a 'breathable' finish. #### The Skin-First Philosophy Instead of heavy foundation, I start by prepping your skin with targeted hydration. For daytime, I use serum-based foundations that provide coverage while allowing your real skin texture to show through. This ensures that when you are laughing with friends or dancing, your base stays flexible and doesn't crack or crease. #### Playful Color Palettes Daytime functions offer the perfect opportunity to experiment with colors that might feel too casual for a night wedding. I love using soft pinks, warm corals, and peach tones. These shades mimic the natural flush of excitement and pair beautifully with the vibrant, happy colors typical of Mehendi and Haldi outfits. * **For the eyes:** I often use soft shimmer or subtle pops of color that complement your attire rather than heavy, dramatic smokey eyes. * **For the cheeks:** A cream blush is my go-to for that 'lit-from-within' glow. #### Collaboration is Key Every bride is different. Some want a traditional look with kohl-rimmed eyes and gajra, while others prefer a minimalist, experimental style with beachy waves and unique accessories like choker headbands. Before we start, we look at your mood board. Whether you are aiming for a classic look or something modern, we will refine the makeup and hairstyle to match your vision and ensure you feel comfortable and confident from the first ceremony to the last. ## About Maitreyi Kotia I’m Maitreyi, and I believe your daytime wedding look should feel as light and happy as the celebration itself.
