Sonam Vaghani @Sonamvaghani

If you are looking for some really fresh and natural-looking bridal makeup, then you need to check out Sonam Vaghani. Usually sticking to neutral colours for the eyes as well as the lips, we love how natural yet stunning her bridal makeup is.
Lekha Gupta @makeupbylekha

Having worked with a lot of Bollywood celebrities, Lekha’s work is pretty well-known. Her signature makeup look is defined eyes, dewy skin and a pretty pink or nude lip. If this is the kind of look you prefer for your wedding day, then you must check her out.
Varsha Gidwani @ dramaeinbaaz

If you are based out of Delhi, and are looking for a makeup artist for your big day, then consider Varsha Gidwani. If you want your bridal look to be slightly more glamourous, especially for your reception or cocktail functions, then Varsha could be a great choice. We love how she plays up the eyes for that touch of bridal drama.
Gunjan Dipak @ gunjandipakmua

If you prefer the traditional Indian makeup to go with your bridal attire, then you need to check out Gunjan Dipak. Based out of Delhi NCR, Gunjan’s bridal makeup is magical. Matte base makeup, oodles of highlighter and a dramatic smokey eye seems to be Gunjan’s forte. If you’re a traditional bride, we promise you, you’re going to love her!
Shruti Yadav @ shruti.mua15

Based out of Bangalore, Shruti is perfect for the millennial bride. From colourful eye makeup looks to experimenting with lip colours, we love how refreshing her take on bridal makeup is. What we also loved about her work is that she is equally experimental with her hairstyles and seems to be big on the latest hair accessories!
