Indian Roka Ceremony Makeup

In a few months from now, a friend of mine is getting married. Yaieee!!! And a couple of days back , she had her Roka (An Indian pre-wedding) ceremony. It was a day time and a close family only ceremony at home. She called me over for her hair and makeup and this is the look that I did for her.

She wore a lovely long and flowy dress/suit. She wanted a fresh, soft and simple makeup that was formal at the same time. Also, because of an eye infection, I had to be careful about makeup getting into or too close to her eyes and therefore, no Kajal too.

She and everyone else loved the curls that framed her face quite well and gave her a nice soft look. Weirdly though, her hair took me almost 2 hours to curl!! Mainly because of my stupid curling iron that took long to heat up and then stay hot. Ughhh!

Well what do you think of the look?.. Love, Jas 🙂
