“As a makeup artist and hair stylist, I began my journey in the mid 2000’s and have styled for some of the biggest magazines, events and fashion shows in India.
Developing my natural flair as a stylist, I acquired finesse in my craft through several courses and training programs such as; Distinction in the City N Guilds NVQ level 2 & 3 in Hairdressing Skills, Basic certificate course in hairdressing in affiliation with Wella from Nalini n Yasmin Academy in 2005, Certificate & Diploma courses through the L’öreal Training Centre in Mumbai, Basic professional makeup course from Nalini n Yasmin Academy in 2005, Fashion/ Media/ Television makeup under Marvie Beck, High Definition & Airbrush makeup through several workshops with Kryolan.
My professional repertoire as a stylist includes covers and features for magazines such as Seventeen India, Elle, Beautiful People, Brides Now, AND, Jade, India Today, My World, The Sindhian, JCK Luxury Magazine, etc. I hve worked with the brands such as Koesch, Bada Saab, MissMalini & Make-up Forever for the beauty queens of Pantaloons Femina Miss India 2009 along with shoots for high fashion models & profile stories on imminent personalities from all walks of life.”
Apart from being a make-up and hair designer, Priya is also an author if you must say. She had the most brilliant concept of coming up with a practical manual for the bride-to-be called the ‘Bridal Diaries’ launched in 2013.
Now the PKMH website covers everything related to makeup, product recommendations with reviews, home remedies, beauty, hair, nails, trends as per new seasons, product launches etc

Their USP is the addition of men’s grooming from a woman’s perspective as well as a wide berth of beauty coverage. With the current ongoing situation in mind they also have a section on wellness meets beauty.
Talking about their expansion plans - Priya states, “We have a lot more coming up. The beauty industry is vast & the need for self care and grooming is becoming imperative to many millennials. We at PKMH associate the ‘look good to feel good’ factor & why not.
Self love should be topping ones priority list, whatever that entails.”
