About Bridal Makeup
My Bridal Approach
I’m Sonia, and I take bridal makeup one day at a time. I’m here to help you look and feel your best, whether you want something super subtle or a full-on glam vibe. Your wedding look should be about you, not trends or what’s “in” right now.
Skin First, Always
I’m obsessed with natural bridal makeup. My main thing is getting that dewy wedding skin, like you’re glowing from the inside out. I use HD and airbrush techniques so your makeup stays flawless, no matter how many hugs, happy tears, or dance moves your day throws at you.
Every Event, Your Style
Each wedding event deserves its own mood. For pheras, you can pick a classic royal style or minimal wedding makeup that feels simple but strong. Sangeet and cocktail nights? Think soft glam bridal look, shimmer, or even something wild—if you’re feeling bold, I’m game. Mehendi and haldi are all about fresh, golden looks that pop without being too much.
The Process
Before anything, I want to hear what you’re picturing—your outfits, your vibe. My sister Shakshi handles hair, so we work as a team to bring it all together. I block my calendar for your dates, so you get my full attention.
Always Leveling Up
I keep my kit stocked with luxe products and I’m constantly picking up new techniques at masterclasses. I’m based in Mumbai but happy to travel wherever your wedding takes you.

My Story
Hey, I’m Sonia, certified makeup artist from Mumbai but I’ll go anywhere you need me. Honestly, I live for travel - tropical vibes are my jam. My motto? One day at a time, especially after my Insta got hacked (ugh). Fun fact, I team up with my sister (she’s a killer hairstylist) and together we bring the full vibe. Want classic red bride or a full ‘Poo to Parvati’ transformation? I’m all in. For me, it’s not just makeup, it’s about making you feel epic.
My Work
Bridal & Event Makeup - I do makeup for weddings, sangeet, cocktails, engagements, maternity shoots, and any party you want to shine at.
Soft Glam Signature - My go-to style is soft glam - think dewy skin bridal look, glass skin, and natural bridal makeup that enhances, not hides.
Custom Looks for Every Bride - Traditional red, modern shimmer, subtle base or glitter eyes - whatever you dream up, I’ll create it.
Destination Ready - Mumbai based but I travel anywhere for your big day. Destination wedding makeup artist, at your service.
