MIRA PATEL, THE INDIAN-ORIGIN MAKE-UP ARTIST AND MODEL, IS CREATING HEADLINES ON AMERICAN SOIL. WE GET UP-CLOSE AND PERSONAL WITH THE INSTAGRAM SENSATION.
You’re a model and a make-up artist, too. What part do you like playing the most?
Though make-up came first, I always enjoyed the thought of modelling. Not that I didn’t have the same feeling for make-up, but I love the confidence and happiness I get from modelling. It makes me feel as if I am the prettiest girl in the world.
You’ve grown up in Badlapur and now you live in North Carolina. Which one do you call home?
Both are my home. My parents made it a very big deal about never forgetting our roots when we moved to the States. There are so many Indian traditions I carry out on a day-to-day basis; it’s in my blood and it’ll forever be a part of me.
