About Media & Production Makeup
What I Do On Set
Since 2017, I've been right in the thick of things on media shoots - TV ads, fashion campaigns, music videos, you name it. I’m not just in and out after the first application. I stay glued to the monitor, ready with my kit for every quick touch-up, making sure not a single frame gets spoiled. If you hear, "Arey side, idhar aa, touchup karna hai!" you know it's me calling you for a super quick fix so we don’t waste any time.
My Style and Work
- Versatile with looks, but always start with flawless skin makeup for HD cameras. I love creating glowy, natural finishes or bold, creative styles, depending on what the shoot wants.
- I make sure the makeup is sweat-proof, especially for dance-heavy music videos or long shoot days under lights.
- I handle everything from no-makeup looks for ad shoots to high-glam editorial makeup, and I’ve got solid experience with male grooming for TV commercials and celeb shoots.
- My kit has only tested, long-lasting products - MAC, Huda Beauty, Kryolan, Estee Lauder, and a few secret weapons.
Where I Work
Based in Mumbai but always ready to travel. Have worked all over India and even internationally for shoots. No fuss, just solid, reliable work that lasts through the madness of production.

My Story
Hey, I’m Shilpa. Makeup’s my thing, my art, my magic trick. Started in 2017 and since then, it’s been a wild ride - from my Malad studio to wild shoots in Goa, Baku, wherever the work takes me. TV, Bollywood, dancers, models, I’ve worked with all. I love switching it up - Bengali bride look one day, boss lady the next. For me, being part of the crew and hearing ‘Inke bina hamara ye song adhoora hai’ (without her, our song is incomplete) – that’s what I live for.
My Work
Makeup & Hair for All Occasions - I do makeup for celebrity shoots, weddings, TV, music videos, personal events, even drag and retro looks.
You Dream It, I Create It - Tell me your vibe – high-fashion boss lady look, traditional Bengali bridal makeup, or anything. I’ll match your style.
Natural & Stays Put - My makeup looks natural, lasts all day. Clients say, 'kaafi natural makeup hai' – even after long shoots or crazy weather.
Always There for Touch-Ups - On shoots, I’m always on standby – ready for a fatafat (quick) fix so you look perfect in every shot.
