He eats, breathes and thrives on all things beauty, although he quickly adds it is a job not a lifestyle. Dhav works across the media from magazines to newspaper to television and within all aspects of new media. He is equally at home with a make-up brush or discovering a new beauty brand, deciphering new ingredients or miracle creams. He wishes his epitaph to be his lifelong mantra – "beauty is about enhancement not disguise."
