    Pink has range. Pink has drama. Pink has main-character energy—and if there was ever a time to let it shine, it’s wedding season.

    From barely-there blush that whispers romance to bold fuchsia that enters the room before you do, a pink lipstick is that one beauty essential that never lets a bride down. It’s soft but powerful, classic but playful, timeless yet always trending. Basically, pink is doing the most—and we love that for it.


    Whether you’re a minimalist bride who believes in “your lips but better” or someone who wants their pout to pop in every candid, pink shows up and shows off. It flatters every skin tone, works with every outfit (yes, even that pastel lehenga and the ivory gown), and somehow manages to look fresh from pheras to post-wedding party chaos. Long hugs, stolen kisses, emotional speeches—pink sticks through it all.


    This edit is all about celebrating pink in its many moods. Think creamy nudes that melt into your lips, rosy mauves that feel effortlessly chic, dusty pinks that scream old-money elegance, and vibrant brights that say, I know exactly who I am. These are the lip colours that balance softness with strength, tradition with personality, and romance with confidence.

    And let’s be real—your wedding lipstick isn’t just makeup. It’s part of your memory. It’s in every smile, every laugh, every “I do.” So why not pick one that feels like you?


    So, here's your chance to find pinks that promise comfort, colour payoff, and serious staying power. Because when the outfit is dreamy and the moment is big, your lipstick should absolutely rise to the occasion.

    For Manifest to become one of Cambridge Dictionary's most viewed words of 2024 — 1,30,000 hits and counting — it means some of us must have Googled it at least once. I know, I hit that search button over and over again
    because each time I looked at it, I saw a new meaning.

    Putting together a homegrown title at a time when the demise of print has been long announced may seem surprising...
    ...but it has long been a dream of mine to give India a magazine it deserves. A magazine that is the country.

    And nothing, absolutely nothing, represents India more than our weddings.It is a time when families are brought together. Traditions come alive as they are adapted to each couple's beliefs. And lives are joined in a way that the romantic in me still enjoys.

    The fact that it comes with band, baaja and baraat — what's not to love?And that is the reason our first issue celebrates:
    THE NEW BRIDE.
