Whats in?

Re: Whats in?

lool same here im scared of looking like a completely diff person after a vists from the parlour!

shock shock horror horror…its such a small world! my hubby is from there too!

Re: Whats in?

Don't the parlours in pak do consultations? I know over here, most brides go a few months ni advance to get their look for the wedding day, not sure if that exists in pak tho...

Re: Whats in?

ok thanks :slight_smile: what kind of clothes would u reccommend me making for general wear…simple but elegant? party wear? or bridal touch clothing? what kind of stuff comes more in use after the wedding?

Re: Whats in?

ooo really il find out coz i am going to defo go for one!

Re: Whats in?

They dont from what i know, we had to pay full price of a complete bridal look at a trial (rs 13000) for Mehreen (phupis girl)… plus at most salons, the girls who work there do the makeup not the main artist…
But in either case, i think that you should take your own foundation and sponge cause that is one thing they really over do, the base as they call it.

Re: Whats in?

do they actually use your foundation if you ask them too?

Re: Whats in?

It depends on where you will be right after the wedding like the first month. In india and pakistan i know the families want the girls to look like a dulhan for a while so kaam wala dresses are a must. I got work like dupka style done on georgettes instead of organza and silk and i got a lot more resham and sequins work cause yaar here in the USA i dont get a chance to dress up that much and the resham sequins can easily be worn to a get together and you can add a formal touch with good heavy jewelry for a mehndi etc…
Acha, hubby is hungry now, need to go cook food. Kul baat karaain gay

Re: Whats in?

Never tried but you can tell them you have sensitive skin and your doctor has said to use this foundation :wink:

Re: Whats in?

lool good one :smiley:

Re: Whats in?

ok thanks you’ve given me sum good tips :flower1:

Re: Whats in?

I think im gonna take my own foundation... i dont want to look all fair and lovely on the day... natural would be the way to go!!

sara, yeap saw the clothes.. they look awesome... where on earth did u get them frmo in gujranwala though?? man.. i never knew Guj had such shops... wow, u learn something new everyday...

Devoted, u serious? man gujranwala rocks!! in its own lil way hehe

manomano, im totally scared about the costs and makeup... aagh

Re: Whats in?

oh yikes....
i dunno....if my family wasn't in pak, i wud have my wedding here...it may be more expensive but hey at least its more organized and stuff...
what I'd do, I know what colors would like nice on me adn stuff but if i wanted to experiment, I'd go to the department stores here (macys) and ask em for a free makeover...theyll deff do that but i dn't think that would happen in pak....
its frustrating going makeup shopping there (or for anythign fro thatmatter)....i'm used to going to a store, finding what I need without having shopkeepers breathe down my neck like in pak...everythign is behind a showcase, you have to ask the shopkeepers and bug em n stuff n if u dont find wat u need they chase after you with other stuff that u dont even need..

Re: Whats in?

can you get me a link to that thread? i dont think im going to buy any make up from pak…i have ultra sensitive skin so only use stuff like from body shop…no dodgy stuff from pk!

Re: Whats in?

Hmmm sadz I’ll have to ask her…
I jus tknow that the maroon outfit was hers, I’m not sure if she even got it from gujranwala… she cuda snuck to Lahore and gotten it :smiley:
the second outfit, the orange one, was def from lahore..i was there when they bought it :slight_smile:

Re: Whats in?

hey what thread Devoted?

Re: Whats in?

Re: Whats in?
