Re: Makeup Artists in UK [all threads merged]
That is really tough luck, But I’m glad u wrote ur review on here and I’m sure u will save alot of people the trouble of booking her. Who did u book for ur walima? Shagufta Is based in East london (just off of Green st).
Hey supersummer, thanks for your comments.
Yes I drove by her restaurant…I won’t be going there any time soon! Hahaha. Yes she is from a wealthy background. Her father owns a restaurant and she has invested in it too. She qualified as a lawyer from a prestigious university and worked in one of the best law firms in London, before leaving to pursue make-up.
It sounds like i’m rattling off her biography! She approached me to write a piece on her (before my wedding but after I had booked her) for an international fashion magazine. I was praising her a lot in the article which I regret now! I wish I could take every word back. As a thank you, she got me a really really cheap make-up set…I am not exaggerating. I think it was from one of those indian shops for like £1. I havent even used them I think there is a lot of hype around her, I think because her best friend is that model Gulzaeb Beg Ali. Also, I think she was overbooked on my wedding day because she was in a hurry. If I was a MUA, I would book only one bride and devote my entire attention to her. It just makes sense. Money comes and goes, but without a solid customer foundation you’re nothing. Are you getting married? xx
@ Colourful Eyes - Love the mehndi pics. Where in London is Shugufta based? x
