About Celebrity, Media & Events
What I Do
I work in beauty and fashion, mostly for ad campaigns, celebrity shoots, and big events. Mumbai is home, but I end up travelling a lot for shoots. If you need someone who's worked on everything from Vogue covers to IPL TVCs, that’s my world.
Shoots & Events
I spend most days making looks for ad campaigns, runway shows, and media interviews.
- Ad Campaigns: TV, print, digital - done it all. I’ve shaped looks for brands like L'Oréal Paris, Nykaa, Lakmé, and Vogue. Big IPL commercials, too.
- Runway & Live Events: Backstage is madness, but I love leading a team to get models runway-ready. Wella Professionals showcase was wild.
- Interviews & Public Appearances: I help celebs like Rannvijay Singha and Harmanpreet Kaur look sharp for the camera. These on-camera makeup techniques are all about natural, polished vibes.
Style & Artistry
Makeup for me is all about range.
- Minimal skin-finish or full #glamxriya - depends on what the project wants.
- Men’s grooming? Yup, I do that too.
- Love experimenting with creative editorial shoot styling - from classic glam to edgy themes.
My Approach
Every look is custom. I tweak things for each face, each brand, each concept. I’m big on teamwork, and being prompt and chill on set matters to me. Sometimes shoots are hectic, sometimes you get time to play. Either way, I’m all in.

My Story
Hi, I’m Riya. Mumbai’s home, but honestly, my kit goes everywhere. I’ve played with palettes for brands like Nykaa and Wella, but the real fun is mixing it up - from natural makeup looks to crazy glam. That Vogue x Audi shoot? Still feels wild seeing my work printed. Every day’s a new face, new vibe. I just love bringing ideas to life, whether it’s glowing skin or bold, glossy eyelids.
My Work
Makeup & Hair for Shoots and Brides - I do makeup for fashion, bridal, pre-wedding, and campaign shoots. Mumbai-based, but I travel too.
Signature Looks: Minimal to #glamxriya - I’m all about glowing skin finish, clean minimal wedding makeup, or a bold glossy eyelid if you want drama.
Campaigns & Ads - I’ve worked on big shoots for brands like Van Heusen and Shoppers Stop. Fast sets don’t scare me.
Makeup for Indian Skin Tones - I create looks that work for all Indian skin tones, making sure everyone feels seen and stunning.
