what what..if siffat does the final touch..15,000..or only eyes 17,500..then what about the bridal makeup...these charges r total or additional with the bridal makeup...kia loot muchi hai yar...
uffff!!!

283

good question..i dk. i think these r total because if senior does the makeup then it's 13000 n siffat does eyes so it comes to 17500..i think siffat charges 4500 extra for eyes. n same with final touch..she charges 2000 extra. i think

I thought Annie charges 50,000??
Otherwise, 20-30K seems alright.

Then again I won't be needing those services at all. :D

My sister had her make up from Athar Shehzad. She got married in 2007. Base and everything was neat and tidy but I have objection about her hairstyle. and also the eye make up wasn’t very stunning. She was looking pretty indeed but I must confess that they are not good for traditional make up.

288

elegance u r very right..eye makeup he to eye ctaching hona chiyea:)

**See the hair stylist is different and of course Shehzad doesn't do the base or hair himself :p

I had Shehzad for my Walima and loved his eye make-up...ALBEIT the base was another story - I hardly use make-up and getting made-up for two days irritated my skin and it broke out :(

Overall make-up by Shehzad was great!! and for hair I just told them what kindda hair style I was looking for....so it worked out perfect Allhumdulliah!!**

Re: which parlour to choose in Lahore for wedding?

My recent experience with Madeehas was crappy.. My SIL got her bridal done from there and also pushed me to get party make up from there which I unfortunately agreed to.

We got the bridal deal from Siffat..17,500 one ..she was hasty didn't listen to any of her concerns and did the same eye make up to every bride that day!! Their finishing is horrible too..

As for me I already had a bad party make up experience with then that's why I wasn't keen on trying them again, but got trapped .. I had the same old stupid heavy dark kinda 'contouring' which made my face look 'bigger'(yea I thought it was supposed to do the opposite) ..my hair was messy..I did my hair again when I got back home..there wasnt enough time to do rescue my face though.

In past I had a good experience with Madeeha but now their quality and services are in a sorry state..not to mention extremely costly. The lady who was doing booking was so rude that I canceled having the photo shoot from Deeves there. phew I was so full of it..just feel a bit lighter...

293

I'm thinking of going for Madeehas for my baraat day, but the latest reviews about her place aren't too good. Can anyone guide me, if its true. Any other place I can get baraat make up done from. I don't want to spend more than 18K

I had my Nikah makeup done from Arsh at Newlook..it looked great...dont remember what they charged...i think it was 14000..including hair and dupatta setting..I would recommend Arsh (not her mother).

Re: which parlour to choose in Lahore for wedding?

well i think if 18's ur cutoff madiha is where u should go. i think there's a serious dearth of good MUA's in lahore. i dont really have a cut off but thats where i will go too because there's no other placee!!i used to really like madiha once ,so much that i wanted to get both days makeup from there but recently their quality has gone down. there's shahzad but i will get that for walima inshallah. apart from that i hate allenora and depilex and there's just no other place left.

Re: which parlour to choose in Lahore for wedding?

thanks for the feedback! I know a few years back, Madeehas was the rage and they did a great job. Now it seems they are churning out the same kind of brides on a production line :s

I don't like allenora, and my nikah makeup was from a depilex trained lady so I want to stick to something safer. Ather Shehzad's assistant takes 20K which I can stretch my budget to, but then I think that the makeup is just going to be washed off into the sink after a few hours :s

Madeeha's 13K assistant seems like a rational choice, and I really wonder how much difference Siffat would make if I pay extra for touch ups or the eyes

I wish we had bina khan, shaheen or nabilas in Lahore
nabilas Lahore is charging 30K, that is beyond budget for me

297

ather shahzad assistant is not a bad choice but i am not too sure of red. so i think u should stick to madiha assistant. i doubt sifat touch up would make any difference. also my cousin recently had her makeup done from sifat. i will tell u a few things abt her makeup . she looked pretty good in person but not so much in pictures ( this i have been noticing a lot with make up from madeeha's) the problems that i found in her pictures were:

eyebrows looked to dark
hair looked very chipkey huwey. (no volume)
her eyemake up wasnt complementing her eyes if u know what i mean. like her eyes are quite big , the eye makeup was really good on its own but on her eyes it just didnt come out that well. it made into a completely different person. changed her shakal which is not the best thing for a bride.
she is dark and sifat tried to make her look very pink :S
ahh i dont know. i hope this makes sense. these things reallly stood out in the pictures, however not in person.

Re: which parlour to choose in Lahore for wedding?

hey thanks a LOT! Actually at my nikah I had 2 photoshoots (over excitement) so this time round I'm not going for an expensive photoshoot, but our friends who have professional cameras will be taking the pictures. I also am dark with big eyes, but I'm into makeup so I think I'll have to be very clear with what I want from the assistant. No red lips at all, no changing my shakal, and I may even carry my own foundation for the bridal makeup. I guess then madeeha's assistant should be a reasonable choice

Re: which parlour to choose in Lahore for wedding?

haha i think u should be ok. madeeha's is safe,even if its not too great these days. btw just wondering, are u wearing red? and if u are does it have another color?

Re: which parlour to choose in Lahore for wedding?

I do want red, but I think I'll decide on the dress once I've finalized the jewelery, which is most probably a rubies set. If I go for red, I'll go for plain red with antique gold, I don't like green and red, or blue and red. I just mite go for purple edgings on the border
