FAQ

Our pricing is fixed, ensuring transparency and consistency for all customers. There are no hidden fees, and we provide clear details upfront. While we don’t offer discounts, our rates reflect the quality and dedication we put into every project.

One of my most memorable projects was working with an American bride who embraced Indian attire for her special day. It was a beautiful experience, as I had the honor of dressing her in traditional Indian bridal wear, along with her bridesmaids, who came from diverse ethnic backgrounds-including my own. The fusion of cultures made it an incredibly unique and rewarding experience.
Since this project involved over 10 people, my team and I dedicated about 5 hours to ensuring every detail was perfected. From intricate draping to flawless makeup and hairstyling, it was a long but fulfilling process that truly showcased the beauty of diversity and tradition coming together.

When hiring a professional in my field, there are several key factors to consider. Start by looking at their portfolio to ensure their style aligns with your vision. Ask about the difference between airbrush and HD makeup to determine which option best suits your skin type and occasion. Inquire about the service duration so you know how much time to set aside for your appointment. Clarify who will be providing the service-whether it’s the artist themselves or a team member. Check for any hidden or travel fees to avoid unexpected costs. Reading reviews and testimonials can give you insight into past clients’ experiences while verifying certifications and experience ensures you’re working with a trained and qualified professional. Also, ask what’s included in the package to prevent last-minute surprises. Additionally, it’s important to understand the difference between bridal and non- bridal makeup. The distinction can impact pricing, techniques, and the overall experience, so clarifying it upfront is essential!

I have had the pleasure of working with a diverse range of clients, including individuals of all ethnicities, brides, non-brides, photoshoots, and fashion projects. My experience allows me to tailor my services to different styles, preferences, and occasions.

Yes! I travel locally, nationally, and internationally for clients. Travel and accommodation fees apply depending on distance and location. Reach out early for destination availability.

No refunds will be issued for cancellations unless the artist is unable to fulfill the booking. Rescheduling may be accommodated based on availability. All terms are clearly outlined in the contract provided at the time of booking.

To make the most of your trial, please bring any inspiration photos, along with a picture of your outfit, jewelry, or accessories. If possible, wear a top in the same color as your outfit or blouse to better visualize the final look. If you’re planning to wear a veil, dupatta, or hair accessory, be sure to bring those as well. For hair-focused trials, don’t forget to bring any hair extensions or clip-ins you plan to use. This helps us create a look that’s true to how you’ll appear on the actual day.

Airbrush and HD makeup are both designed to create flawless, camera-ready looks, but they differ in technique and finish. Airbrush makeup is applied using a special tool that sprays a fine mist over the skin, creating a lightweight, seamless finish that’s incredibly long-wearing—perfect for long events, outdoor ceremonies, or humid climates. It offers a soft-focus effect and is especially great for oily or textured skin. HD makeup, on the other hand, uses advanced, high-definition products applied with brushes or sponges to enhance natural beauty while blurring imperfections. It delivers a radiant, skin-like glow that photographs beautifully under bright lights and is ideal for all skin types, especially dry or sensitive skin. During your trial, we can explore both options and choose what best suits your skin and vision for the day.
