The Artist
Senior Makeup Artist · Beauty Educator · Brand & Runway Artist. For over fifteen years, Manisha has shaped faces for wedding days, fashion runways, editorial covers and film-grade cameras — building a reputation for flawless HD finishes that feel light, last long, and photograph beautifully.
A five-season Lakmé Fashion Week artist and former Head Faculty at Lakmé Academy by Aptech, she has authored professional curricula and mentored more than 300 artists into successful careers. Her approach begins where great makeup begins: skin analysis, tone-matching and honest consultation — so every look is built for you, not copied from a trend.
Certified in professional makeup artistry by Fatmu Makeup School, Mumbai, and a Temptu-certified HD airbrush artist, she works exclusively with luxury, professional-grade products.
The Journey
Delivered bridal, HD and event makeup for a flagship national beauty brand, upholding exacting standards of finish, client experience and product craft.
Led the makeup department as Chief Makeup Trainer — authoring the curriculum, running assessments, and training 300+ students to professional industry standard.
Bespoke bridal and editorial artistry, designer and brand collaborations, and masterclasses for working artists — including five seasons backstage at Lakmé Fashion Week as head makeup showstopper artist.

The most amazing MUA I have come across. I booked a heavy glam makeup for my wedding reception and she literally slayed. Everyone was stunned by the look she created.
Deepita G.Wedding receptionHer makeup products are top notch. The best part is the skin analysis she does as prep work — she understands the type and tone of the skin. This makes her makeup just flawless.
