About Engagement & Roka Glam
I never rush the prep. Before any makeup touches your face, we spend 15 minutes on an extensive cleanse, tone, and moisturizing session. It is the secret to that skin-like finish you see in my photos, without any heavy or cakey layers, just your natural glow shining through.
How I Approach Your Engagement Glam
Your engagement or Roka is the first big celebration of your wedding journey. You want to look stunning in person and in those 4K-ready videos, but you also want to feel like yourself. My approach is simple: I highlight your features rather than covering them up.
The Process
- Skin Prep: This is my non-negotiable step. I use premium, hydration-focused products (Charlotte Tilbury, NARS, Huda Beauty) to ensure your base is flawless. My goal is to make sure your skin stays breathable and hydrated throughout the function.
- Customization: Whether you are wearing a pastel lehenga or a bold gown, we will sit down before the session to discuss your outfit colors. I tailor the eye makeup, lip shade, and even the body illuminator to ensure your look is cohesive.
- The Details: I handle the technical stuff so you don't have to stress. This includes secure jewelry setting (Matha Patti, Tikka, Passa), double dupatta draping, and professional pin placement that lasts for hours. I also carry premium, reusable 3D Faux Mink lashes that give you that perfect, fluttery volume without feeling heavy.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Can you handle hair extensions? Yes, absolutely. Please just ensure you provide them, and I will handle the setting and styling.
- Do you travel for the function? I am based in my studio in Mohan Garden, but I am happy to travel for destination events. Let me know the venue, and we can sort out the details.
- What if I want a specific style? I am always open to references. Send me what you have in mind, and we will adapt it to suit your skin type and personal style.
My priority is your comfort. Whether it is a soft, romantic look with beachy waves or a glamorous statement with a sleek ponytail, we will create it together.
