Speaking on the same, Shakti Mohan states,
“Makeup is a natural extension of dance for me. I wanted to do a line for years, but it needed to be credible and a game-changer. I wanted my line to be inclusive, accessible, and for it to speak to the millennial generation, that always wants to look on point. All the Mohan sisters are very inclined when it comes to cosmetics, and I’m beyond thrilled to partner with NY Bae for this. NY Bae brand ethos and performance resonates with me, thereby making it just the right fit.”
