About Fashion & Editorial Makeup & Hair
How I Work
I get a real kick out of shaping a look from scratch, especially when the whole crew is vibing on one idea. For me, makeup and hair aren't just about looking good - it's about fitting the mood and telling a story that actually means something. Whether we’re going for a minimal Swaṟṇavalli vibe or something wild and conceptual, I’m most in my element when I’m collaborating and figuring out the puzzle with stylists, photographers, and models.
What I Love Doing
- High-fashion and editorial shoots where you want a look that pops on camera
- Brand campaigns and lookbooks that need cohesive, creative makeup and hair
- Thematic shoots (think Y2K, Euphoria, Siren of the Sea) where we get to play and push boundaries
My Style & Skills
I trained formally so I know my basics, but I get excited by mixing it up. You’ll see me doing:
- Glass skin makeup look for that luminous, camera-ready finish
- Bold graphic eyeliner and vibrant color palettes - I’m not shy about using green, purple or whatever the shoot needs
- Natural beauty shoot makeup for those clean, classic portraits
- Creative editorial makeup with textural stuff like glitter, pearls, feathers, and avant-garde hair styling to match
The Hair Story
Hair’s not just a sidekick - it’s the frame for the whole look. I’ll style it slick, wavy, retro, or sculptural to fit the concept. Sometimes it’s a polished updo, sometimes it’s wild.
Keeping It Real
Sensations ka tho pata nahi (not sure about sensations), but yes, back and foot pain bohot hota hai (there’s a lot of back and foot pain) after a long shoot. Still, I wouldn’t swap it for anything else. Being trusted with your vision is something I genuinely value.

My Story
Hey, I’m Shreya. You see those glam pics - 'Aquatic Allure', 'Siren of the sea'? I love making those magic moments with a wild crew. Did makeup for the World's Fastest Human Calculator once, wild ride! But real talk - after shoots, my back and feet are dead. Sensations ka pata nahi, dard toh free mein milta hai (Don’t know about sensations, pain comes free). Still, this messy, creative life is mine and I wouldn’t swap it.
My Work
Makeup and Hair for Shoots - I do makeup and hair for editorial beauty looks, conceptual art makeup, brand campaigns, and traditional Indian styles.
Versatile & Experimental Style - Super natural no-makeup makeup one day, wild pearls and bright paint the next. I love switching it up.
Collaborative Process - I work with the whole team—creative director, stylist—so makeup and hair fits the shoot’s vibe perfectly.
Creative Collaborations - Best projects happen with other creatives. If you want something interesting, I’m in.
