flawless makeup done for my nikkah🤍

Adiba did an amazing job with my makeup, hair, and dupatta setting on my nikkah day! It was a very hot summer day, and the makeup was able to last 12+ hours while still looking great at the end of the night. She was also very kind and professional throughout the entire experience and made sure I liked the way that the look was turning out. Everyone should book this amazing lady 🩷

I had the most amazing experience! The makeup was absolutely flawless perfectly blended, long-lasting, and exactly what I envisioned (even better!). My hair turned out stunning and stayed perfect the entire time. She is so talented, professional, and truly listens to what you want while adding her own magic touch. I felt confident, beautiful, and so happy with the results. Highly recommend for anyone looking for top-quality makeup and hair 💄✨

Perfect Bridal looks!!!

Adiba is the sweetest and most professional make up artist I’ve encountered. She was willing to work with my schedule and my family members for my Baraat and Walima. Her team helped me with my bridal glam while also committing to 4 additional make up/hair services. Everyone looked their final looks and I felt like the most beautiful bride! Thank you so much Adiba for everything you’ve done!!!!

Best makeup artist for your big day!

I worked with Adiba for two days in a row for my wedding. I knew I wanted to work with Adiba right when my trial began. She made me feel incredibly comfortable right away. I was nervous because I don’t normally wear makeup and didn’t want to feel like someone else on my wedding. I expressed this to her and she affirmed that she will be able to execute my vision for a natural look. Her kind and gentle energy immediately eased my anxiety. She also offered tips on how to prepare for my big day by getting facials and other treatments that would improve my skin.

I absolutely loved my look on my wedding and got many compliments! Everything from the makeup to multiple dupatta setting to hair was just perfect. Adiba was very gentle and a good listener throughout the process. You definitely need that kind of energy from a makeup artist on your big day.

Adiba was also flexible when I needed to push back by an hour due to some change in my schedule with the photographer. I highly recommend working with her!!

Amazing Makeup and Hair Artist

Adiba was absolutely amazing to work with. She was so flexible, responsive, and easy to communicate with. My makeup turned out outstanding, and I received so many compliments throughout the evening. What I appreciated most was her flexibility. We hadn’t planned any hair for my mother-in-law, my mom, or my daughter, but at the last minute they asked, and she still handled everything so beautifully. She did an amazing job for all of them as well. I highly recommend Adiba for her talent, professionalism, and warm attitude.

The best part of my wedding experience!

Adiba is a fabulous and very gifted artist. I have so many great things to say about her -

- She is very professional and her pricing is very fair

- She is extremely punctual, and is also flexible to adjust to our timings.

- She is extremely hardworking. She did almost 12 hours of mehendi for me and my guests and immediately after did makeup and hair for 3 events. She does not tire easily at all and is so consistent in her work quality

- She is a very gifted artist. I gave her 5 different intricate mehendi designs for my hands and feet and she duplicated them to perfection. She also did a fantastic job for my makeup and makeup for all our guests, and was able to work with all skin tones, shapes and sizes. Her saree draping skills are also very good !

- She is extremely patient and does not get flustered or stressed even if clients are running late. It's very impressive that she maintains a very calm demeanour at all times.

Adiba was the best vendor choice I made and the best part of my wedding experience. I will really miss working with her!

Amazing HMUA experience!

I worked with Miss Adiba for my makeup HMUA trial and booked her for both days of my wedding weekend. Before I even met her, I was so pleased with her prompt responsiveness and clear communication; this was in stark contrast to the makeup artist I was considering hiring before her, who took from days to weeks to respond, so the fact that Miss Adiba always responded within a few hours at most was a relief. At my trial, she took detailed notes about the looks I wanted for each event and did an excellent job making one of those visions come to life, which i honestly would've been happy to have as my actual wedding makeup! My family was also impressed with her work after the trial, as she clearly did a better job than other makeup artists I've worked with in the past. During the chaos of my wedding weekend, Miss Adiba woke up at 3 am to travel to me and get us started by 5:30 am, and remained calm and collected while my family ran around in the background preparing for my first event. She even took extra time beyond what I booked her for to ensure everything looked perfect, going so far as to flat iron the pleats in my saree so they draped nicely. While getting ready for my second event, she remained patient with various family and friends coming and going from my hotel suite and asking for random favors, such as borrowing her materials for their own makeup and hair, and she remained polite and accommodating while holding reasonable boundaries. She also did a beautiful job doing my sisters in laws' hair and makeup, which they were extremely pleased with. More remarkably, her hair, makeup, saree/dupatta setting, and jewelry setting all stayed in place for the entire rest of the day (yes, even on the day I got ready at 5:30 am), and I got endless compliments at the end of each night at how my makeup still looked flawless despite plenty of dancing and sweating. All in all, my family and I are very impressed with Miss Adiba's work and grateful to her for her time and patience throughout the wedding weekend. I cannot recommend her highly enough - she is worth every cent she charges, and the peace of mind you'll have for your look on your special day is priceless.

Wedding Makeup Artist

Adiba created 3 looks for me across a 2 day, 3 event wedding. She did my hair, makeup, and draping (which was different for each outfit and ceremony). I could not say anything more positive about Adiba. I was especially picky about choosing a makeup artist in particular as someone who likes to dabble a little bit with makeup, and Adiba clearly knows her stuff. She is a true professional - I was able to show her a few pics of what I wanted and she immediately created the look for me and in a way that fit my face and personality too. My favorite part about Adiba is her calm, kind, and flexible nature. She had no problem changing things I wanted differently, and was always soft spoken and truly tried to make sure I was happy with my look. Not to mention even at our 4am HMUA, she had a smile on her face :) I really enjoyed working with her and I’d do it all over again!
