Philosophy

After many years and over 300 weddings, I still get excited when I see a bride ready to walk down the aisle. And that is why I approach every wedding with the individual care, enthusiasm, and personal attention a bride deserves on her special day!Azelia has been a professional make-up artist since 2002. Once she was formally qualified, Azelia began her career in the fashion and bridal industry working on photo shoots, fashion shows and providing professional bridal make-up expertise all over Ireland. It wasn’t long until her talent was recognised by the press and her peers.

She then opted to travel abroad in search of international make-up experience.
She was spotted by a well known Australian  make-up company called Mecca Cosmetics  and worked extensively throughout Australia and New Zealand, gaining a wealth of experience and learning new techniques and styles from international celebrity artists from Japan to New York and from LA to Germany and the UK. She worked for top brands such as Nars, Stila, Duwop, Kevin Aucoin, Shuerma, and By Terry.
She worked on many major photo shoots, films and magazines, but the highlight was working back stage on Gucci 2008 fashion show in Sydney. Her wealth of international experience now sets her apart from any other make-up artist.

On returning home she became a tutor teaching eager make-up artist students Fashion and Photographic Make-up. In this setting, her enthusiasm and passion for make-up comes across while she teaches. She gains self achievement in helping to develop the talents of new students in the world of make-up.
“I always loved applying make-up but teaching is a whole new level of passion for me,” she says.

Azelia’s career has taken her to the top and her work has graced the covers of Marie Claire, Glamour, Northern Women, Ulster Bride, In Magazine and Fate to name but a few. Her expert advice on beauty and the latest make-up trends has been in beauty columns in many newspapers such as News Letter, Belfast Telegraph, Irish News and the Daily Mirror.

She has built a strong rapport with top fashion photographers such as Jim Crone, Gavin Millar and Jessica Bill among many others.
Her special talents have also been sought by major advertising agencies such as Walkers Communications and Ardmore and she has worked on major projects such “Smoke Kills” for Northern Ireland Fire Safety (NIFS), and the Norfolkline campaign. She has also worked in television and on a host of TV commercials.  Of recent she has been doing music videos and short film productions, expanding her talent further.

She is a highly sought after make-up artist by the major International fashion shows such as Gucci as well as many Northern Ireland fashions shows.

She has had the honour of gracing the faces of celebrities such as Trinny and Suzanna, Nicole Kidman and Alex Best to name but a few and she was recently labelled by Alex Best, as her favourite make-up artist of all time.

Her approach to bridal make-up has established her as a top artist in the bridal industry. Her professionalism and immaculate work, her signature looks for each bride and her genuine care and listening skills have stunned hundreds of brides nationally and internationally. She has an extensive catalogue of positive feedback which underpins her deserved reputation as Ireland’s most sought after wedding make-up artist by far.

Over the last eight years Azelia has mastered the skills that place her at the top of her field. Her clean, consistently excellent work is highly credited and recognised within the fashion, bridal industry and has placed her as one of the top make-up artists not only in Ireland but also abroad.I have been a makeup artist for over 9 years. I knew that this was what I was going to do from the age of 15. After a few years working with Shiseido and Bobbi Brown cosmetics, I decided to go to a celebrity makeup artistry school in Burbank California, MUD. There I was taught by celebrity makeup artists and worked various photo shoots and commercials in the Los Angeles Area. I right away enrolled into the Esthetics's program after makeup school to receive my Esthetics's license so I can understand skincare as well as makeup.

I also started working at MAC cosmetics, the leading makeup line for makeup artists. This is where I truly leaned the art of makeup. Doing 20 or more makeup applications every day on so many different types of skin and ethnicities, having to get everyone done in a short amount of time, and dealing with so many varieties of shades, products and colors gained me the most experience in makeup Artistry. I also took airbrush makeup classes and instantly fell in love with this amazing new tool of artistry. Makeup is not something that someone can just all of a sudden be great at, after attending a few classes, it is an artistic talent, something you need to work at over and over again to truly understand it and feel confident with your skills as an artist. It's something you need to experiment with for many years to get your skills as a true makeup artist. This is where I got to do that all day.

Working at MAC cosmetics, I started doing a lot of bridal makeup at the store, and out of the store. Brides would come in looking for bridal makeup, and then hire me for their big day. I started getting more and more referrals every month and got pretty busy doing this every weekend. This is when I really found my true passion: Doing bridal makeup! As I was planning out the details of starting my new business, my boyfriend, now husband, proposed!

As we were planning our wedding I was also strategizing how I was going to start this new adventure. I teamed up with the leading hairstylists in the state, so that I can provide brides with both hair and makeup on their wedding day, so they don't have to go to a salon. I created this company in 2005, the same year I married my husband, Hans. Being a bride myself  I really got to understand what brides are feeling and what they want. It's difficult planning a wedding when you work full time, so I knew finding the right vendors was extremely important. On my wedding day I didn't want to do anything but enjoy our beautiful day and savor every precious moment. I got just that, and I believe every bride deserves to have that too! Every year my business grew and grew and I now have the top, well known photographers, wedding planners and other vendors in the state referring me to their clients.

I am an extremely reliable makeup artist with many years of experience. I do this full time and spend many hours each day servicing brides and making sure their wedding day makeup and hair experience will be absolutely perfect. This is not my hobby, or a part time thing that I like to do in my spare time. SF Bridal Makeup is my focus and it is what I am best at!

Makeup has always been my artistic outlet for me, and has always made me feel at ease. I love how just a little bit of makeup can change someone's entire mood and confidence. I can create a look for you on your wedding day, that when you look back at your photos, you will be amazed on how beautiful you felt that day. I really can say, I love what I do!Zoe has spent over 10 years working in the makeup industry across Film, Fashion and Television assignments, however it is in Bridal makeup that Zoe is truly at home.

"It's the beauty and uniqueness of each and every bride on her wedding day that I love"

Very much in high demand, Zoe's philosophy is to "bring out a client's own natural beauty to a higher level", a quality that is hard to find in many professional makeup artists.

Zoe is against heavy application of 'caked on' makeup and prefers not to make a bride look like a different person but to make her clients look like a perfected version of themselves.  Extremely passionate about healthy skin, Zoe only uses the best makeup and skin care products.  Her toolkit is regularly replenished with an array of premium products to suit all different skin types and concerns.  Zoe's favourite makeup brands to work with are Jane Iredale minerals, Bobbi Brown, Laura Mercier, MAC and Nars.  For skin care she uses Bobbi Brown and Environ.

Bina Khan Bridal Makeup Biography

I have always had a soft spot for a good transformation. In fact, its a pretty common predeliction , witness the variety of make over shows......people, homes, gardens, marriages, we love to see order made out of seeming chaos. So when a chaotic bride comes in to my salon, stressed, fussed and mussed, it is my pleasure to sort it all out. Obviously some good raw materials help, but everyone always has 5 or 6 really pretty things going on and capitalising on those assetts is the name of the game. Whatever the case, when a dupatta is being pinned on to someones head and in that moment when they are becoming a bride, everyone stops what they are doing to look....even other brides! Gushing and oooohing ensues and the world is a happy place. This , i will admit, is the moment i wait for. The coming together of hundreds of thousands of Rupees!

However, magical as this moment can be, i have seen some brides sabotage themselves. I have been through my fair share of brides by this point and while the majority are a pleasure and my job is mostly a JOY there are some who are on their own private roller coaster of craziness, and we are all along for the ride. She is upset, she is struck by the anti climax of the day , she has been so fussy throughout that things once achieved are unsatisfying, she has fought with her sister/mother/husband , she expected it all to mean more, its her special day....... Good grief! Unreal expectations will only lead to disappointments. But this as i say is very much the minority of cases. To ensure tension free happiness , here are some pointersChoose the right designers for you. My favourites are Sana and Safinaz (the purple bridal at the top is theirs, just look at that silhouette!) and Bunto Kazmi (the ivory and antique gold one just above is hers). When you buy their work, you are buying a work of art. Its bridal couture at its best, with the accompanying services. I know, for example, that you can return with your Sana and Safinaz bridal 6 years later and ask for it to be spruced up again. They will do it free of charge and with the idea that it is their duty to do so. Their work ethic and creativity are something to behold. I have seen some of Bunto Kazmi’s embroidery that is so fine that it appears to be printed material until you get closer and see the tiny flawless threadwork. These people make one of a kind , future heirlooms.

It is indeed possible to present quickly to your designer your concerns and desires, but ultimately let them tell you what they think you should do. Listen to their advice and if you are not convinced, go somewhere else. It is a cardinal mistake to force designers to do your bidding at the expense of what they think is right, instead try to find the one that suits you. In your search, try not to insult the ones who you meet with along the way. Whether their style suits you or not, they are experts at what they do and should be given due respect.Always order your jewellery ahead of time , I have seen a few situations where a bride has had to wear a back up set because the jeweller has gone M.I.A. Don’t go for too much, one choker, earrings and teeka is most common, sometimes the right kind of jhoomar works too. DO NOT go for a nath ( the nose hoop ) , its outdated, out of style and unless your husband is paying for you in cattle, a tad out of place. Plus, no one stares at the floor anymore, and a laughing chatting bride's nath will spread her lipstick all over her face! If you can get your sets from India, nothing like it.Event managers are the name of the game now, you can hand over the entire organization of the wedding to someone else and save your parents mini nervous breakdowns and/or screaming matches with caterers/florists/deejays/eachother. Again, you get the benefit of someone else’s experience. Just look through their albums and select what you want!I leave make-up artists for last. Obviously I think you should all come to me! However, I quite understand that maybe not everyone will find Sana and Safinaz or Bunto Kazmi or my make-up to their liking. This is obviously your prerogative, however I would caution you again as to how you deal with your booking, wherever it is. Every bride thinks its her “day” and she has the “right” to ask anything she likes. This is not exactly true when the supposition is that you had better order things as you like since you know better than the expert, be it any one of us. I have many friends in this or related fields and when we tell horror stories it is inevitably about that one kind of client , who assumes you know nothing about your area of expertise, who will explain every last detail of what she wants, leaving the designer / stylist / event manager / interior decorater with no creative scope and very little respect, goodwill or excitement.


I love doing make-up, I LIVE for a beautiful bridal eye make-up, i love making up a bride. I have had thousands of enjoyable and happy clients. Trust who you have selected completely or if you cannot, then you have not found the right fit. ( I loved it, for example, when someone recently asked me if I had “heard” of M.A.C ….. I mean, come ON!!!!)However flattery will get you everywhere! When I go to get my haircut I explain what I am afraid of but quickly defer to the stylists advice and I always say “Well, you do this everyday, obviously you know what will work better than I do.” I say this not only because I know it to be true, but also because I know that someone has to draw on creativity and enjoyment to do a good job. If she wants to throttle me then I am more than likely leaving with a buzz cut!

And most of all remember, weddings are supposed to be fun, so find the perfect fit for you and just let go. They are out there, the perfect designer, the perfect stylist, the perfect event manager, the perfect printer…… and the perfect husband!
There are very, very, VERY few things (man made at least) that I see in Karachi that make me think "How beautiful!". A genuine exception to this rule can be the components of the fantastic traditional desi bridal. From beautiful antique kundan jewellery and 30 year old chatta patti ghararas to the brand new stuff that is made with breath taking love and finesse to recreate the glory of the past just goes to show that sometimes old just IS gold! Often the highlight of my work day involves a face, outfit and jewels that inspire me to be the best that I can be. These are some of my recent favourites with a traditional bent.......
p.s. Be very careful girls, there is a fine line between classic and outdated. With all things though, its best to stick to quality over quantity (sadly, the odds are, if it's cheap, it shows!) and let the experts guide you. They will rarely guide you wrong...Hi guys. I've already booked Bina Khan for my wedding in June, but I'm slightly worried about her attitude now. Someone in my family is taking make-up classes from her, and told me that she can be quite rude, and answers questions with a real attitude. And she's said in her blogs too that she expects her clients to trust her, which is fine, but I'm just wondering if there are any Bina Khan brides around who could put me at ease. I don't want to be arguing with my MUA (or even be scolded by her!) on my wedding day, and I hope Bina's attitude is limited to just her students. So what I basically want to know is: is she open to ideas? Questions from her clients? Is she rude to the brides? Please tell me about your experiences!

A wedding is surely a special day for every woman in her life, and she would like everything from the wedding cake to the wedding dress to be just perfect.Asian wedding dresses are usually very expensive and most times women save money to buy their dream wedding gown. But if you are short on budget, making your wedding dress on your own would be a great idea. If you are planning to make a wedding dress for yourself, it is necessary for you have stitching skills. If you do not, start making some dresses for yourself, so that you understand the basics about stitching. Here are some tips on making of a wedding dress.
Steps to Make a Wedding Dress
The first step towards making a wedding dress is the designing. You can look through different fashion and bridal magazines where you would find different wedding dress styles and designs. The Internet is also a good place to search for wedding gown designs. You can choose one from them or create your own design. But you need to look whether that pattern would look good on you, i.e whether it fits well with your body type. Ask for opinions from close friends and family, may be they can come up with ideas that would make the design of the wedding gown better.
Once you are done with this, the next step would be to choose the fabric to make the wedding dress. Normally, the wedding dress is made of satin, but you can also make it with silk, cotton, tulle, taffeta, linen, etc. Other than this, the color of the wedding dress need not be restricted to white only, rather you can choose colors like light blue, pink, beige, ivory, gray, etc. Choose a color that would go well with your skin tone. Find out how much cloth would be required to sew a wedding gown and buy a little more than you would actually require so that you can make changes if something goes wrong during the sewing process.
After this is done, you have to start with the measurements. As doing this on your own can be a little difficult and may lead to inaccurate measurements, it would be better to take the help of some other person like a friend or sibling to take your correct measurements. Once you are done with the measurements, you can start making your wedding dress. However, it is always recommended to try the pattern on a muslin (plain woven material) to understand how to go about making a wedding dress. It would also be a good idea, because if you make any mistake in this, you would surely avoid it while making the original bridal gown. You would even come to know whether the pattern really suits you.
Cut the muslin cloth according to the pattern you have decided and sew the gown. Once you have done this, try it on. Most of the time it would be loose fitting and here comes the main job. With the help of pins, pin all the places to make the dress into a perfect fit. As this job cannot be done on your own, ask for the help of a friend to pin up the dress according to your fit. Remove the dress without taking off the pins and sew them together (hand stitch would do), and again try it on to know whether further alterations are needed.
Now comes the most important and difficult step. You have to carefully draw the dress pattern with new measurement on to the paper for your actual gown. After this is done, transfer this design on the actual fabric. This requires lots of patience and should be done very carefully. Once you think that you have taken the measurement correctly, it is time to stitch it together. Try the gown once again and note down the final adjustments or alterations that you have to do.
The next step would be to decorate the wedding dress. You must plan this at the same time of designing the dress. You can use frills, beads, sequins, pearls, etc., to make your wedding gown look beautiful and elegant.
The biggest advantage of making a wedding dress on your own is that it is less expensive as compared to buying one. However, if you are thinking of making your wedding gown, it would be good to start your work on the wedding dress 3 - 4 months before the wedding day. This would give you ample time to work on the gown and make changes if some problem arises. Last minute preparations would leave you with very less time and the end result would not be what you expected.

A last word of advice is to keep in mind the bridal jewelry and the wedding shoes that you have chosen or have in mind, while making your dress. You would surely enjoy the whole process and would cherish your wedding gown that you made with so much efforts, for a lifetime.

Max Factor, now the most famous name in Western cosmetics, was born in Lodz, Poland, in 1877, and began his career as an apprentice to a wig maker. By 20, he was running his own makeup shop.

Max Factor travelled to the United Sates in 1902 and took his family to the St. Louis World's Fair. They never returned. He began selling hair goods, imported cosmetics and stage greasepaints to local stage actors in St. Louis.

As his local fame spread, actors from the emerging film industry also came to Max for make-up advice. Thus, the motion picture industry, then beginning in Hollywood, beckoned. He settled in Los Angeles with his family in 1909 and got a job with the Pantages Theatre.

By 1914, he was perfecting make up for the movies. He had improvised a new alternative to dye greasepaint, which he thought looked dreadful and 'terrifying' on the screen.

He formed flexible greasepaint, which was the first make up created for film. It helped make actresses look more natural in close up. His most notable clients were Mary Pickford, Jean Harlow, Bette Davis, Joan Crawford and Judy Garland, all of whom became regular visitors at his salons.

In 1918, he developed his 'colour harmony' face powder range, which allowed him to create make up for each individual based on their skin tones, due to the wide range of shades on offer.

Creating false eyelashes, the eyebrow pencil, lip gloss, and pancake make up, Factor created a whole new language for screen cosmetics.

Inevitably, once the actresses had been made to look so stylish on screen, they wanted to maintain the same effect in everyday life, so they wore the new Max Factor 'make up' in personal appearances.

Soon, women unconnected with the theatre or the film industry were asking for the make up, so that they too could look glamorous.

By the 1920s, Max's sons were heavily involved in the business with Davis working as general manager and Frank helping his father to develop new products.

They received their biggest single make up order during this decade in 1925 when they had to provide 600 gallons of light olive make up to the film set of 'Ben Hur' to ensure that the extras filming in America had the same colour skin as the extras who filmed in Italy.Shakereen Chowdhury has always been in love with the world of creative beauty and artistry.

This blog post isn’t necessarily limited to bridal make-up but is more my top pick of easy products that give a pretty look that’s easy to create in a matter of minutes and suitable for a day at the beach.
1. Tinted moisturiser or BB cream: These are perfect for evening out the skin tone without the need for heavier foundation. One of my favourites is Laura Mercier, whichever one you choose just make sure it has SPF in it too.
2. Cream eyeshadow: I couldn’t live without Mac paint pots! I apply it with a flatish brush and blend it out with a fluffy brush but you could even apply them with your finger and they’re water resistant too.
3. Waterproof mascara go to two coats for big lashes.
4. Cream blusher: For a flush of natural colour, apply this with fingers onto apples of the cheeks and pat into the skin.
5. Sheer lipstick or stain: this season I’m using Dior Addict a lot (as you can see in my last post!) I love that it gives great colour but the texture is quite sheer and soft.
We are firm believers that you can change up your look with just one simple tweak. Today we’re turning to eye liner for a little makeover inspiration. Check out what a simple flick of the pencil (or liner brush) can do, as modeled on some of our favorite Hollywood beauties.
If you want to go a little bolder without thickening the line, follow Brandy’s lead by outlining the entire eye, even going as far as the inner corners. This small difference really highlights the shape of the eye.
When you’re wearing a bold lip, like Gwen Stefani’s signature red, the eyes shouldn’t be the focus. But skipping eye liner entirely can make your face look a little naked. Instead, apply liner along the top lash line and finish with a smudge of eye shadow on the lower lash line to add definition.
We love the cat eye that Naya Rivera modeled above. Unlike other versions, this was done using a powder liner so it’s less bold and looks more natural, elongating the lashes.
Colored eye liner is daring, but when applied with a light touch, the look becomes easier to pull off. Emma Stone’s shimmery blue liner works because of its clean, not-too-smoky shape.
Shimmer applied at the inner corner of the eye has become a staple. So why not dab shimmer along the entire bottom lash line like Carly Rae Jepsen did at the American Music Awards? The gold brightened the entire eye and added interest to an otherwise neutral makeup look.
One of the many things I love about working with makeup is its transformative power; its ability to completely change a face -- or body in some cases -- whether the results are glamorous or grotesque. Whilst makeup is most often used to accentuate a woman's natural beauty or make an artistic, colorful statement, it can also be used to portray a completely different persona. Contemporary artist Cindy Sherman is a woman who has manipulated makeup to her advantage in her work. Her retrospective, on view at New York's MoMA through 2012, features a staggering array of images Sherman created by dressing as women of every age and from every conceivable era, along with the occasional man or otherworldly creature. The images she has created with makeup and a little help from costumes, wigs, lighting and photo effects are often disturbing but always transfixing.
