Okay i have an appointment with Aliya Tipu for my engagement make up and now im having nightmares thay she’ll make me look all caked up and blah.(for no reason mind you)
Bina khan on the other hand does the most amazing subtle make up. and now im CONFUSED!
I dont live in Karachi so i cant visit either of the salons.
please help! Bina khan or Aliya tipu? 
Re: Guys, HELP!
Bina Khan hands down. I have heard Aliya tipu does really gawdy make up.
Personally, I'm not going to Bina because I think her makeup is too subtle for a bride... I'd pick Ravissant at Avari or Bushra at Nabila's.
hey if u r confused ...u can check aliya tipu and bina khan facebook profile...n go thruogh their pictures...if u like them.....u can go for either of them.....
Re: Guys, HELP!
Bina Khan seems clearly to be the better choice, between the two.
Re: Guys, HELP!
id pick bina khan for engagement makeup out of all the others in khi. and would never pick aliya tipu for any event.
Re: Guys, HELP!
Thanks everyone!
Bina khan certainly seems to be the better of the the two.
Now the next step would be cancelling my appointment with Aliya AND refunding ofcourse.
Suggestions? Muahaha
Re: Guys, HELP!
Hahah go pick a fight with her at the salon and demand a refund.

Re: Guys, HELP!
Mahismart.. thank you.. but i saw all of these before making up my mind. :\
Dua G.. thanks! :)
Re: Guys, HELP!
omg, aliya tipu's makeup is horrendous! almost every bride and model i have seen of hers has the most gaudiest look. im not that big of a fan of bina's but she's definitely better than the other.
Re: Guys, HELP!
^ Exactly. All I saw were the photos on her own website. And if THOSE are bad, I can only imagine what the real deal is like.
Re: Guys, HELP!
^and that too after all the photoshopping.
Re: Guys, HELP!
Pareezay who do u think is better than Bina Khan? Cuz I'm kind of in the same boat.
Re: Guys, HELP!
sabs
Re: Guys, HELP!
Yeah i called at Sabs but Saba doesnt do engagement make ups and Tayyaba has left.. :\
And yes, who would be better than the two?
Im SO confused. not even funny! :o
Re: Guys, HELP!
Aren't there tons of good ones in Karachi? I went to Cistre and was very happy (they do heavier makeup than Bina Khan, but I think it has a similar way of enhancing your own natural beauty, just with a bit more glamor), but I know that there are even bigger names there. Search for bridal make up in Karachi. There are a few different threads.
Re: Guys, HELP!
Just my luck. i wanted Cistre eversince i was 10!
and when the time came i found out that Rukhsana there has left.. or whoever there main makeup artist was. :\
Re: Guys, HELP!
^ Oh no! Really! I didn't realize. Ruksana was very good.
By the way, since you are looking for make up for a mangni, I think Bina Khan's look will be nice.
Re: Guys, HELP!
Yeah otherwise Cistre was the best and just what i needed.
Thats what i think too but as i told I have already made an appointment with Aliya tipu and getting my money back is going to be an issue and throwing all that money away is not me exactly. :\
