Her style of work is traditional and fitting for Desi brides
Getting your makeup or bridal look for the biggest day of your life can be one of the many struggles throughout the wedding period.
Desi brides are opting to venture into a new contemporary look, which features subtle makeup.
On the other hand, there are some Desi brides who still want to attain the traditional bridal look and go all out, and we are for that.
In the early 2000’s brides tended to adopt a more dramatic look with gold eyeshadow, big lashes and red lipstick.
The same look is created with a flawless dewy base focusing more on good skincare and a flawless foundation base.
Bold red lips round off the bridal look, which adds the traditional factor.
DESIblitz narrows down the top 6 traditional makeup artists who will make our South Asian brides look ever so elegant on the big day.
