Delhi has hundreds of bridal makeup artists. Here are the questions that separate a good booking from a stressful one.
1. Does the portfolio show real brides?
Look for photos of real clients in different lights, not only studio shoots. Ask to see brides with skin and outfits similar to yours.
2. Is the style yours?
Some artists work heavy, some light. Choose someone whose everyday style already looks like what you want.
3. Is a trial possible?
A trial is the only way to see the look on your own face before the day.
4. Who will actually do your makeup?
Ask whether the artist you met will do your look or a team member.
5. How is the morning timed?
A good artist plans backwards from your ready-by time and tells you when to start.
6. How are brushes and products kept clean?
Hygiene matters, especially for your eyes and lips.
7. What is included?
Hair, draping, lashes, touch-ups and travel can all change the quote. Ask for everything in writing on WhatsApp.
