About Editorial & Creative Makeup
Why I Love Editorial & Creative Makeup
Makeup is my way of mixing art and real life. I’m always trying new things, sometimes it works, sometimes it’s a bit “arre, kya ho gaya yaar?” (oh, what happened?!), but that’s the fun of it. If you’re bored of the same old looks and want something that stands out, you’re my type of person.
What I’m Good At
- High-fashion editorial makeup for shoots – bold colours, sharp lines, and dramatic textures.
- Fantasy makeup transformations, from dreamy sun-moon vibes to dark, goth-inspired looks. Rhinestones, glitter, and quirky appliques – sab chalta hai (everything goes).
- Graphic liner makeup ideas, like foxtail liners or geometric shapes, for when you want your eyes to be the main event.
- SFX makeup for photoshoots – realistic fake blood, cuts, or even full-on character looks for Halloween.
- Building portfolio makeup for models and actors – clean, edgy, or totally out-there.
How I Work
I use airbrush, detailed line work, and loads of creative techniques. My kit is always packed with colours, textures, and little surprises. If you’ve got a wild idea or just want to try something mast (awesome), I’m all in. Let’s go crazy with it and make something you’ll actually remember.

My Story
Hey! I'm Riya, CIDESCO certified and loving every bit of this makeup journey. My first model kicked things off, and since then, I’m just experimenting non-stop—straight looks, wild Halloween faces, you name it. My family’s always my guinea pigs, especially my mom—doing her makeup was so special. Big thanks to all of you for sitting through my practice sessions, never bailing, and letting me try crazy new stuff. Loads more looks to come, pakka (for sure)!
My Work
All kinds of makeup & styling - I do Peshwai Maharashtrian bridal makeup, smokey eye makeup, fantasy Halloween makeup, plus hair styling and saree draping.
Always practicing, always learning - Most days I’m testing new techniques—thanks to my models for letting me practice and improve.
Fun, collaborative sessions - You’re not just a client, you’re part of the process. We chat, laugh, and build your look together.
From simple to full drama - Soft natural, bold runway editorial makeup, or full character—just tell me your vibe, I’ll make it happen.
