Featured Makeup and Avant-Garde Artistry
A snapshot of my work ranging from editorial campaigns to experimental body art. This is where I push the limits of makeup for shoots and creative projects.
For this project, I used the model's body as a canvas to create a fiery, abstract look. This is an example of the experimental body painting I do for artistic shoots and campaigns.
A high-fashion concept featuring bold, gold glitter eyeshadow and matching metallic props. This kind of textural and avant-garde makeup is perfect for making a statement in magazine editorials.
This look is all about precision. I created a sharp, dramatic winged eyeliner using a vibrant purple for a clean and bold graphic makeup style suitable for fashion portfolios.
Creating a complete character for an editorial fashion shoot. Here, I combined subtle, glowing makeup with a pop of green on the eyes to complement the tribal-inspired styling and accessories.
This video shows a creative collaboration where my makeup work interacts with a projected background. I used a mix of face and body paint to blend the model into the animated, nature-themed environment.

About Featured
When we work on these looks, we are building a character, not just applying foundation. Whether it is sharp graphic liners or full-body art, I work directly with your photographers and stylists to ensure the makeup hits exactly right for the lens. This collaboration is why these looks stand out—it is about getting the textures and lines perfect before the camera starts clicking.
My approach to these featured looks is simple: keep it real and keep it visual. I don't believe in safe, boring makeup for editorial shoots. Whether it is a magazine cover or a music video, I use my kit—featuring Kryolan, MAC, and PAC products—to create lasting impact.
What you see in this gallery:
- Graphic & Textural Art: I use gels, foils, and intense pigments to create 3D effects that pop on camera.
- Body Painting: My process for body art involves high-grade aqua colors and specific skin prep to ensure it stays perfect through long shoot hours.
- Editorial Styling: I focus on the 'concept' first. If the brief is gothic, tribal, or futuristic, the makeup must tell that story.
I handle everything from clean, modern beauty to complete character transformations. My setup is optimized for the studio and the set, meaning I come prepared with the tools to change looks quickly and handle touch-ups so the shoot keeps moving. I travel across India for projects, so whether you are shooting in Mumbai, Delhi, or Goa, we can make it work.
