Meet Christina Pillay

Founder & Creative Director

Ever since she was a little girl, she has carefully practiced applying makeup on her friends and family, and she has always been keenly interested in turning this into her career “I absolutely love my job and wouldn’t change it for anything in the world”. Christy is both practical and artistic about cosmetics and their effects. While she likes to focus on classic, timeless beauty, she also likes to stay current with trends. “For me, makeup is about so much more than applying pretty colours or adding a pop of highlighter. While staying on top of the latest styles and learning new skills has always been important to me, I believe that cosmetics can be a way for any woman to bring out her inner goddess and highlight her best features. Nothing is impossible when you feel beautiful, both inside and out.” Above all else, Christy believes in making her clients happy: “I do what is best for my clients, take a scientific approach to skincare, and foster excellent customer rapport – this is my commitment to you.”
What We Do?


Christy believes strongly in highlighting everyone’s unique beauty. Being a culturally diverse Indian Bridal Makeup is of the utmost importance to her, and she relishes working with women of different backgrounds in order to develop a Wedding Makeup Artist Durban look that speaks to their beauty and creates a true ‘wow factor.’
