On the lookout for budget friendly makeup artists for all your summer weddings? Look no further, we list down the top 5!

Shaadi season is upon us yet again, when is it never though? Pakistani’s love for shaadis is incomparable and rightly so – the essence of our culture, the festivity in celebrations and the glam quotient is unmatched!
Desi wedding fashion and makeovers leave no stone unturned and it’s the kind of makeup even international artists can’t ace. We live for color, glitter, glam and everything in-between and while all over the world, party makeup for weddings is fairly neutral and lacks the glam and glitter, desi hearts are incomplete without the full on bling – the essence of the real divas, which our local artists capture best.
Brides are the center of attention anyway but we made sure to not leave the bridesmaids behind for the makeup artists to flaunt their skill. This Shaadi season requires fool-proof, summer glam and these top MUA’S will give you just that. So if you have too many shaadis coming up and you HAVE to get your makeup done professionally to get the true shaadi celebration feels BUT you are on a strict budget? Worry not, we give you some ace makeup artists who will also help you stick to your budget and look your glamm-est ever. They offer different price points but all 5 fall under 20 K!
How’s that for a dream come true! Read on as we reveal all!
1. Rija Bakhtiar – Makeupby_rijabakhtiar
Rija is not a new name when it comes to bridal and party makeups, she is known for her precise skills and ability to ace a range of looks. Be it matte and smoky or glowy and glittery, she can get you ready for any event. She can either amp it up or keep it soft and muted.
What we like best about her is that every look she covers is a one-of-a-kind. She doesn’t give two people the same lip shade or eye makeup. It’s always switched up and she has been in the game since 2016.
2. Amna Rafiq Javeri – Amnas.makeupstudio
You want unmatched glow? Amna is your go to. She even adds a fun modern take to traditional makeup and the glow that will shine through all your pictures. Bonus points: Amna also throws in a relaxing skincare prep pre the makeup with foundation that won’t crack during these sweltering summer nights as per her star reviews.
3. Maria Jawwad – Mariajmakeup
If you want your features to look sharper and crave that model makeup look, Maria would be the choice for you. Her makeup assures no touch-ups required as per the reviews on her page!
4. Zara Imtiaz – Zaraimtiazmakeupstudioandsalon
We might be just slightly biased – we went to Zara Imtiaz back in 2017 for our prom and the makeup lasted through the entire night, we kid you not! Not just that, the makeup process was smooth from start to finish and not rushed at all. Zara even took out time to cover our skincare routine. We asked for more color to be added to the look and that’s exactly what she gave us. She is one makeup artist who won’t be afraid to give you a color pop if yiu ask for it!
5. Farishteh Munawar – Farishtehms.makeup
If you are the kind of girlie who freaks out at the sight of too much makeup and only wants the most natural look possible ever? Farishteh is your best bet!
Her makeup technique is your skin but better. But don’t assume you’ll miss out on the glam factor. Farishteh promises radiant, smooth and dewy! Perfect for lowkey glam looks.
Hope you are able to finally book your makeup appointments for upcoming shaadis and the list helped you out! Tell us which makeup artist you recommend!
