Bridal makeup artist in Pune, since 2021
A little about how I work, and what your day with me looks like.
Shamal Raut
I'm Shamal Raut, a bridal makeup artist based in Pune. I've been doing makeup professionally since 2021, and in that time more than 30 brides have trusted me with the biggest day of their lives. That trust is something I never take lightly.
I grew up loving the way a thoughtful look can make someone feel completely themselves — not covered up, not turned into someone else, just the most radiant version of who they already are. That belief still guides every face I do.
I work mostly with brides and their families across Pune and Pimpri-Chinchwad — including Wakad, Baner and Hinjewadi — for bridal mornings, engagements, haldi and mehendi functions, receptions, and the guests and mothers who want to feel special too. Whether it's a traditional Maharashtrian look or something softer and modern, I take the time to get it right for you.

My approach
You, at your most radiant
My style leans natural and elegant rather than heavy or generic. The goal is always that you still look like you — just luminous.
Built around your day
I take time to understand your outfit, your features and how you want to feel, then build a look that suits the occasion and the light you'll be photographed in.
Made to last
Wedding days are long. I use products and techniques that hold from the first ritual to the last dance, so you're not worrying about your face all day.
Calm, unhurried, on time
I arrive prepared and keep the morning relaxed. A clear schedule means you and your family start the day feeling calm, not rushed.

“Still can't get over how beautiful I felt on my wedding day. You didn't just do my makeup, you truly gave me the most beautiful version of myself — it felt so natural, elegant, and absolutely perfect. You were at my location even before time, at 5 AM — so punctual, disciplined and dedicated. You also dolled up my mom, my nanands and my mother-in-law, and everyone looked stunning. Your saree draping was absolutely solid and pure class.”

“I went through the profiles of more than 50 artists before I finally chose Shamal. She transformed me into the bride I had always dreamed of being — elegant, confident, and truly royal. She created two stunning bridal looks for me, and both were absolutely flawless. What impressed me the most was how she enhanced my features while still making me look like myself. I would recommend her to every bride without a second thought.”
