About Behind the Scenes: My Process & Techniques
Before I pick up a brush, I look at your skin type—oily, dry, or combo—because good makeup isn't just about the foundation; it is about the base prep. I believe in Avaru avara tharane kaanabeku (you should look like yourself), so I focus on hydrating serums and custom-mixed shades that match your actual skin tone rather than trying to mask it. Whether we are doing a dewy glass skin finish or a matte long-stay look, the process is always tailored to how your specific skin behaves under event lights.
My Approach: From Prep to Polish
I treat every face as a canvas that deserves respect. My process begins with a detailed skin analysis. If you have dry skin, I use extra hydration; if you are oily, we focus on control without stripping the natural glow. My signature style is 'skin-like makeup,' meaning I build coverage slowly.
My Technical Process:
- Foundation Matching: I never use one bottle straight. I mix shades on my palette until I find the perfect match for your undertone. This eliminates the 'ashy' or 'orange' look.
- Eye Technique: Whether it is a soft smokey eye for a reception or a traditional look for a Muhurtham, I use cream bases to ensure the pigment sticks and stays vibrant for hours.
- The 'Skin-Like' Base: By using light, buildable layers, I ensure your skin breathes. This is essential for the long-lasting look my brides need.
Why Trusting the Process Matters
Many of my clients come to me nervous about looking like a different person. I invite you to browse through these clips where I demonstrate my concealer hacks, brow defining, and lash application. These aren't just for show—they are the exact techniques I use when you sit in my chair in Nagarbhavi or when I travel to your wedding venue in Bengaluru.
If you are a student or a fellow artist, you will notice I often share product details and tips like how I use cream blushes as eyeshadows or the specific hydrating sprays I rely on. I believe in sharing knowledge because good makeup is a skill, not a secret.
