Popular Pakistani Beauty Parlors For Dulhan Makeup

It is a notable thing that Pakistan has gotten an overwhelming number of beauty parlors and salons serving folks with makeup, skin care and beauty services.  It is an arduous task to figure out the best bridal makeup parlors/salons from a gazillion with innovative and trendy places popping up every month. Various makeup artists have gotten their salons like Wajid Khan, Nabila, Waqar Hussain, Babloo & Saba Ansari. So, figuring out the top 5 was not simple at all, I have rated the top five beauty parlors for bridal makeup concerning their charges, quality and, of course, the ease of accessibility. Again I would say that these are my personal favorites, and people may contradict with my opinion. Let me dig deep into my rating factors first:

Bridal Makeup Charges


The bridal makeup charges may vary from place to place, and various makeup artists are charging over 2 Lac PKR for a single session. Usually, the bridal charges vary from as little as 10 thousand to as high as 2.5 Lac. Though the affordability is a big ask for people belonging to different classes, that is why I have considered it as one of the biggest factors in my rating scale.

The Makeup Quality


For once in a lifetime event, you can never ignore the makeup quality factor, it matters, and it matters a lot. Usually, people perceive higher charges with good makeup quality but in my opinion, that is not the case at all. I have seen brides wearing expensive makeup that never matched their personas, so an expensive makeup is not always the best one for you. For me, a quality bridal makeup is the one that matches with the bride’s persona and ignites the bloom of her beauty.

The Ease of Accessibility Factor


The accessibility factor matters a lot when you have to look the best on your wedding day with minimum hassles. The wedding day is always a strenuous one for bride and groom, and they want everything to be done eloquently without any problem that is why people start scheduling things, months before their wedding day. You cannot travel miles to reach your favorite makeup artist with tedious traffic situation in every city of Pakistan. So, the accessibility factor matters the most in my rating scale.
After perusing over these factors I have rated the following as the best makeup parlors for bridal makeup:

Kashee’s Beauty Parlor

    Princess Charlotte Now Has Her Own Lipstick

    Never mind that Princess Charlotte, daughter of Duchess Kate and Prince William, is only nine months old and lacks the vocabulary to even say the word "lipstick," the adorable royal has already inspired her first designer lipstick shade.

    According to WWD, Marc Jacobs Beauty debuted a lipstick named "Charlotte" yesterday as part of its Le Marc lip creme collection. The shade, a pretty deep rose-pink, nods to "the deepest saturated pink tones of an English rose," said Catherine Gore, the global vice president and general manager of Marc Jacobs Beauty.

    We've got to say, the shade is awfully fitting for Valentine's Day. But before you jump in the car and head to the mall, know that there's a bit of a caveat: The color is exclusive to Harrods in the U.K. as part of a promotion for Marc Jacobs Beauty's new boutique within the department store. BUT! If you're willing to pay $67 for the lipstick, which includes overseas shipping, "Charlotte" has miraculously not sold out online yet. We guess Brits are less phased by celebrity lipsticks than we are here in the States. Especially when it comes to our versions of royalty: Drake and Kylie Jenner.

    Recipe: My Pineapple-Cream Pie Will Spoil You With Its Delicious Taste!

    a piece of pineapple-cream pie.jpeg
    Here is a piece of my Pineapple-Cream Pie.  


    Anyone that loves pineapple is going to fall in love with this recipe that I have for you today.  Close your eyes and envision a creamy pudding like sweet base in which crushed pineapple and its natural juices rule along with just enough lemon juice and vanilla before it rests in a flaky, tender pie crust, crowned with meringue. My Pineapple-Cream Pie recipe makes a filling enough for not one, but two such delicious pies that taste better than I can possibly describe.  

    You would think that making one pie sounds like a lot of work, but two seems even harder.  No way, readers, and I’ll tell you why.  First off, but you’re going to assemble all the ingredients and cook one filling.  The hardest part will be separating the eggs.  Secondly, you use my oil pie crust recipe because all you do is mix the ingredients and stretch with your fingers into those two pie pans.  There is no reason to roll.

    I prefer making two of these pies at once because I use the entire 20-oz. can of pineapple.  If this sounds like too much pie for your needs, no problem, just cut my recipe in half.  Seriously though, I think once you taste this for yourself that you will also be making two 10-inch pies because you won’t want to deny yourself one extra luscious bite!

    whole pineapple-cream pie.jpeg
    This is a photo of one of  the whole, uncut pineapple-cream pies.



    My Pineapple-Cream Pie


    3 cups of milk
    1-1/2 cups of sugar
    1/4 cup of flour
    1/4 cup of cornstarch
    6 large eggs, separated                                         
    2 tablespoons of butter
    ½ teaspoon of salt
    tilted whole pineapple-cream pie.jpeg
    Yet, here is another view to tempt you with of my other pineapple-cream pie.
    2 tablespoons of lemon juice, fresh or reconstituted
    2 teaspoons of vanilla extract
    one 20-oz. can of crushed pineapple in natural juices or two cups, undrained
    pie crust for two 10-inch pies

    Meringue:

    6 egg whites
    1/4 cup of sugar
    1/4 teaspoon of salt
    1 teaspoon of vanilla extra



    Before you begin, take out your eggs and leave them at room temperature so they can warm a bit before you attempt to crack them.  This makes separation easier.  You can always help speed up this warming process by running your cold eggs under some warm water, which is a trick I use that also works quite well.

    The first thing that you will want to do is to make your pie crust for two 10-inch pies and pre-bake the shells at 450-degrees for about 10 to 12 minutes or until lightly browned.


    To Prepare the Filling:

    Dump your yolks in your pot and reserve the whites in a mixing bowl for the meringue.

    Though you can basically add all the rest of the ingredients to pot with the exception of the vanilla, I usually like to mix the cornstarch with the cold milk first using a fork to blend it through before adding it.  

    All you do next is to cook this pudding mixture until it starts to bubble and thicken.  

    Remove the pot from the heat before adding the vanilla.

    Pour into your two waiting, lightly browned pie crusts.


    To Prepare the Meringue:

    Take out your electric mixer and beat the whites with the salt until it starts to get foamy.

    Add the sugar very slowly and continue beating, gradually adding it until stiff peaks form.

    Add the vanilla last.

    Top each pie with the meringue and return them to a 350-degree oven for about 10-12 minutes until the meringue lightly browns as well.

    ENJOY!
