Book Bridal Makeup in Lahore

Bridal makeup in Islamabad runs from Rs 25,000 with a salon's senior artist to Rs 150,000 and above with a name that travels. The middle of the market, Rs 40,000 to Rs 70,000, buys a signature artist, an HD or airbrush base, hair setting, dupatta draping and lashes. Three-function packages usually price the barat highest and discount the nikkah, and most artists quote per function rather than per day.

Brides typically book two to four months ahead. December through February and the fortnight around either Eid are the first dates to close. Artists either work from a studio in F-6, F-7 or E-11, or travel to your home, hotel or farmhouse. Travel to DHA Phase 2, Bahria Town or a venue on the Murree road adds Rs 5,000 to Rs 15,000 to the package.

Before transferring the advance, confirm who is physically doing your face rather than the salon's brand name, ask for the product list, and book a paid trial if shade matching matters to you. Trials run Rs 8,000 to Rs 20,000 and are often adjusted against the final bill. Get the arrival time and the cancellation terms in writing at the same time.
