About Maharashtrian Brides (माझी मराठमोळी नवरी)
Getting the Nauvari drape right is half the battle—it needs to look regal but still let you move freely during your rituals. I specialize in the full traditional package, meaning I don't just do your makeup, but also handle the precise pleating of your nine-yard saree and set your Khopa bun with fresh flowers so everything stays secure for the entire ceremony.
Your wedding day should feel like a celebration, not a struggle with heavy products. I focus on HD and airbrush makeup techniques that are specifically designed for long-lasting wear. Whether you are dealing with oily skin, texture, or just want a 'no-makeup' Maharashtrian look, I customize the prep to ensure you glow under the studio lights and in natural sunlight.
My process is simple: we start with a proper skin prep routine, followed by a technique that fits your skin type—HD for a skin-like finish or airbrush for a poreless, water-resistant base. The traditional touches like the 'Chandrakor' bindi and the secure pinning of the saree are all part of the service. I travel to your venue across Mumbai, so you can stay in your comfort zone while I set up my kit and get to work.
Since I work with many brides who have full-day wedding schedules, I ensure the makeup and hair are sweat-proof. I also provide basic touch-up advice so you feel confident from the first ritual to the final photo. If you are worried about your skin or want a specific style, let's talk about it before your big day. I am here to make sure you look like yourself, just with that extra bit of confidence and 'shaan'.
