Creative and Editorial Makeup Styles
Makeup is my canvas. From bold themes to avant-garde details, this is where I experiment and create looks that stand out from the crowd.
This is what happens when a client says, "Do whatever you like." I created this fun, glamorous Carnival look, perfect for a themed party or a bachelorette. Save this inspiration for later.

About Creative & Editorial Styles
Even for a heavy editorial look like a polo-inspired theme with crystal veils or bold, glossy textures, I never skip my 30-minute skin prep. Whether you want a dramatic carnival vibe for a cocktail party or a concept look for a photoshoot, the base needs to be hydrated and breathable so the makeup actually stays put through the fun.
I love it when a client tells me, 'Do whatever you like.' It gives me the freedom to push beyond the usual bridal norms. Editorial makeup is about telling a story through texture, color, and unconventional accessories, like the fabric haath phools or net veils you see here.
These looks are not just for studio photoshoots. Many brides today want something truly unique for their Sangeet or cocktail night. If you want a bold, theme-based look that feels like art but still feels like you, we can definitely do it. My process stays the same regardless of the look: we discuss the vibe, select the right products for your skin type, and then build the drama layer by layer.
I work closely with my hair team to ensure that even complex styles, like Hollywood waves or intricate floral buns, match the mood of the makeup. If you have a specific theme in mind, or if you want to recreate one of these editorial styles for your special day, let’s chat and plan it out. I travel across the Mumbai Metropolitan Area for these shoots and events, so location is rarely an issue.
