Khushi The Makeup Artist

Khushi began her working life in IT before finding makeup artistry. Eight years and more than 500 clients later, she is a London-based bridal hair and makeup artist with a particular focus on South Asian weddings.

She plans for the whole wedding week rather than a single day. The Mehndi look is built with braids and dupatta styling so that it lasts through hours of dancing, while the Nikah, Barat, Sangeet, Engagement and Reception each receive a look of their own.

“Makeup shouldn't cover up your natural beauty.”

Khushi, Founder and Bridal Hair and Makeup Artist

Brides can choose between a soft, romantic finish and full traditional bridal glamour. Her kit is built around Charlotte Tilbury, Bobbi Brown and Laura Mercier, and she has run her own vegan makeup brush range since 2020.

For larger bridal parties she brings artists from her own team. Her services also include hair styling, hair extensions, jewellery setting and dupatta draping, and a trial can be arranged for bridal and major events. She works across the UK and travels for destination weddings and elopements.

Away from weddings, her work has included London Fashion Week, fashion and editorial shoots, and hair and makeup for beauty pageant contestants.

Incredible Bridal Makeup!

Khushi is hands down the best makeup artist I’ve ever worked with. She did my hair and makeup for a family wedding, and I felt amazing. She customized the look to suit my features and skin tone perfectly. She also gave me great skincare tips leading up to the event. My makeup stayed fresh and flawless all night without needing a single touch-up! I can’t wait to book her again for my next event

Khushi Made Me Feel Like a Queen!

From the moment I met Khushi, I knew I was in safe hands. She was so warm, professional, and really understood my vision for my engagement makeup. She created a look that was soft, elegant, and lasting that was beyond perfect. Even after hours of dancing, my makeup was still flawless! I can’t thank her enough for making me feel so beautiful and confident. If you’re looking for a top-tier makeup artist in London, look no further!

Best Makeup Artist in London!

Khushi is an absolute gem! She did my makeup and hair for my wedding, and I couldn't be happier with the results. She created a flawless, radiant appearance that lasted all day after listening to exactly what I wanted. The makeup felt so lightweight yet looked stunning in photos. I received endless compliments! She is so professional, friendly, and made me feel completely at ease on my big day. She is an excellent choice for any bride seeking a skilled and dependable artist!
