About Bridal & Wedding Makeup
I believe your wedding look should feel like you - whether that's super glam, soft and simple, or totally traditional. I always start by listening to exactly what you have in mind, and I promise, I won’t try to change your vibe. If you want full-on glitter for your Sangeet, we go all out. If you’re after a simple wedding day look with just a hint of kohl, that’s what we’ll do.
Looks for Every Wedding Function
- I create different styles for each event, from the pre-wedding Haldi and Roka to the main wedding and even your cocktail party.
- Whether it's a South Indian bridal makeup look with gajra and kanjeevaram, or a bold reception glam, I can help you feel your best at every function.
Custom Style, Real Skin
- I love working with all kinds of brides - the ones who want to look like a Mumbaichi mulgi (Mumbai girl) and the ones chasing a royal Rajasthani vibe.
- My approach is all about enhancing your real skin - not covering it up. I work with your skin texture, not against it, for a natural bridal makeup finish.
More Than Just Makeup
- I team up with top hairstylists for everything from classic buns with gajra to loose waves.
- Saree draping is sorted, so your pallu or dupatta sits just right.
- Got a big crew? I can take bookings for your family and friends too, even the groom if he wants a touch-up.
I use only high-quality brands (MAC, Estee Lauder, Smashbox) to make sure your look lasts through all the happy tears and endless dancing.

My Story
Hi, I’m Nandini Shinde from Bangalore. Makeup is my passion—thanks to my mentor Manjeet Khehra, who I swear has magic in her hands. Being certified by her and working with her team, I get to travel, meet all sorts of lovely people, and create looks that make them smile. Right now, I’m also busy with motherhood—just had my baby shower! My bestie’s expecting too, so it’s double the excitement. Feels like everything’s new and bright.
My Work
Makeup for all celebrations - I do makeup for engagements, Haldi, Sangeet, Muhurtham, weddings, receptions, and after-parties. Groom and family makeovers too.
Style that fits you - You want natural bridal makeup or glittery eye makeup? I listen and create exactly what you imagine.
Brides from everywhere - Worked with Mumbaichi mulgi brides, classic South Indian bridal look, and more. Every client is unique.
Ready to travel - I’m Bangalore-based but happy to travel as a destination wedding makeup artist for your big day.
