I want someone to do the traditional Pakistani look with the huge defined eyes etc, but obv not caked on foundation and drag queen-like. But it’s so hard finding someone that’s reasonably priced!!! I realllyyyy loved Sadaf Khawaja, I fell in love with her work on FB. But she’s booked up for my date and I’m having a hard time finding a decent alternative
All the really famous ones (Lubna, Naveeda, Saira Hussain etc) are out of my budget, so now I’m concentrating on lesser-known makeup artists but obv the problem with that is, they’re so hard to find I wanna look amazing but that seems impossible now
My budget is around £300 ish and my venue is in Slough.

Go for a trial with Nazmeen at least, if you like her style. She might not have any real bride photos up yet but I can tell you that those model shots are what you will get in real life. Her work is really polished.
Re: Can’t find a makeup artist!!! Feeling desperate
I was on an extreme budget, I did my own makeup watching youtube vids, i spent 150 on products and i am now using them after marriage. I got complimented so much for my makeup n ppl refused t bliv i did it myself. Trust me it is not rocket science!if you want a makeup list ill send you what i used.
But if you are really keen on having it done by sum1, i recommnd a friend of mine, shes reasonably rated and does great eyeshadow work. She specialises in darker skin toned brides but she does have the full pallet for fairer skin and works well with both. She applies very natural looking foubdation, but gives dramatic eyes should you choose to. Also does hair and dupatta setting too!

Cupcake are there any bridal pics for Sadaf Khwaja online? I tried to google her but couldn't see anything, nor on FB. Also, what's her price range like?
Also to the original poster - these are some other people who i did look at when searching. thought i’d post their FB groups etc while ive got both fb and gs open.

Re: Can’t find a makeup artist!!! Feeling desperate
I had mine done by Uzmas (sale, Manchester) and also had a bridal shoot done by her. I am half Persian and Half Pakistani so it was important that I got the look and the colours right as we had guests from both countries and “Rasams” also of 2 different countries/cultures. She is extremely good on the Pakistani side of things and I was really happy that she actually researched the Persian side of things as well (colours etc.) before our meeting and infused the makeup very well. I had paid £270 for the makeup and the photoshoot was a gift from my in-laws so did not ask them how much it was. I was and am extremely happy with both.
