Hey okay i could really use some help here.
I want my engagement make up done from either of the two.
Havent seen real brides by either.
Suggestions? Comments? Experiences?
REALLY needed!
Oh OR a third better option!
Thanks! 
Re: Akif Ilyas vs. Aliya Tipu
I have seen Aliya Tipu's real brides . She is good. Her makeup is monotonous but she does give good looks to her clients. But I find her a lil expensive than others.
My suggestions : Sonia / Kadir from Sabs and Depilex.
I haven't seen Akif Ilyas brides .
Re: Akif Ilyas vs. Aliya Tipu
didnt akif do sana, the pakistani actress's wedding makeup?
Re: Akif Ilyas vs. Aliya Tipu
If you had to choose from them two alone, I would go with Akif without thinking twice about it.
Re: Akif Ilyas vs. Aliya Tipu
who is this akif.........never heard about it..............hey does any one have pics of brides by sabs
If you had to choose from them two alone, I would go with Akif without thinking twice about it.
yaar, the make up he did on sana was n a s t y !
Re: Akif Ilyas vs. Aliya Tipu
Thanks everyone!
And yes sana's make up by Akif WAS horrendous.
Im still as confused as ever.
They both seemed nice and open to my ideas though.
I wanted saba at Sabs but she said she doesnt do engagement makeups and tayaba has left.
Rukhsana at Cistre has also left.
Shaheen saeed's makeup seemed a little gaudy and overdone.. besides the people seemed grouchy. :\
And shamain faroque i have heard is only good with traditional looks.
so YES im confused!
Oh and by the way, Akif and Aliya both are changing the same amounts.
From what i gather.. akif could be more experimental and aliya would be just a safe choice.
what say?
lol i found it funny that one has the same name as my brother while the other has the same name as the same brother's son.
sorry i know this has nothing to do with the thread!

I would always go with the safer choice. Have you thought about Mubashir? I've heard he's quite good as well. Bina Khan is also another option, she has plenty of photos of real brides that you can look at on her facebook group, and at least for engagements, I thought her makeup was spot on.
