MEET THE ARTIST

Hi, It's
Pooja Sethiya Here!

An LA-based makeup artist with over 11 years of experience, I specialize in beauty, bridal, prosthetics, and SFX makeup. My journey began in South Indian cinema, where I worked with top actors, before moving to Los Angeles to master special effects at Cinema Makeup School.

Featured in Vogue, Elle, and Femina, I bring expertise in character creation, hyper-realistic prosthetics, and high-end beauty. From film and fashion to editorial shoots, I craft transformative looks that enhance every project. With a deep passion for storytelling through makeup, I thrive in high-pressure, on-set environments, delivering stunning, camera-ready artistry for every creative vision.
