Your bridal makeup artist is one of the most important vendors you'll book โ they shape how you look and feel in every photo for the rest of your life. So before you lock a date, ask the right questions. Here are the 12 questions our own brides find most useful when choosing an artist in Delhi NCR.
Experience & portfolio
- 1. Can I see recent, unfiltered work? Ask for real bridal photos (ideally on skin tones similar to yours), not just heavily edited images.
- 2. How many weddings have you done? Experience with your kind of function โ traditional, minimal, glam โ matters.
- 3. Will the artist I meet actually do my makeup? With some teams the trial artist and wedding artist differ โ confirm it's the same person.
Hygiene & products
- 4. Are tools sanitised and products sealed? Clean brushes, disposable applicators and hygienic practices are non-negotiable.
- 5. What brands do you use? You don't need only luxury brands, but products should be professional and skin-safe.
- 6. Do you offer HD and airbrush? A good artist recommends the right base for your skin โ see our HD vs Airbrush guide.
Trial, timing & customisation
- 7. Is a trial included? A trial lets you test the look and shade match in advance.
- 8. Will you match my outfit and skin tone? Your look should be built around your lehenga colour, jewellery and skin tone.
- 9. How long will you take, and do you do touch-ups? Confirm the schedule and whether touch-ups or a family package are available.
Pricing & booking
- 10. What's included in the price? Ask about lashes, draping, trial and travel so there are no surprises โ see typical makeup artist charges in Delhi NCR.
- 11. Do you travel to my home? At-home service is more relaxed and convenient on the wedding morning.
- 12. What's the advance and cancellation policy? Understand the terms clearly before you commit.
