## About Engagement & Reception Glam

For evening events like your engagement or reception, I focus heavily on your skin’s texture under different lighting conditions. I use a high-shine, dewy base that catches the light without looking greasy, ensuring your makeup stays fresh from the first photo session to the very last dance.

Engagement and reception functions usually mean one thing, which is heavy flash photography and stage lights. My approach for these events is all about finding that balance between a high-glam finish and your natural features.

For reception glam, I lean into what I call glass skin, a dewy, radiant base achieved using premium products from brands like Huda Beauty, ABH, and Estée Lauder. It is designed to look luminous in person and seamless on camera. If you are going for a modern vibe, we can pair this with Hollywood retro waves or sleek, textured hairstyles.

If your engagement look is more romantic, we might play with soft shimmer on the eyelids and rose or coral tones, finished with a classic soft-glam base. Since these events involve a lot of movement, I ensure your foundation is sweat-resistant and perfectly set. Every package includes a curated touch-up kit, complete with blotting papers and a sample of your lip shade, so you can enjoy your party without constantly worrying about your makeup.

Whether you are hosting a small gathering in Mumbai or a destination event, I travel to your venue to handle everything. I also specialize in modern draping for gowns and Indo-western lehengas to ensure your outfit styling matches your makeup perfectly.
