Pakistan is packed with talent when it comes to makeup artists. We thought we would round up the new generation of Pakistani makeup artists making waves in the industry, one distinct look at a time.
Ikram Gohar
Being a make-up artist at Nabila’s has given Ikram Gohar the platform to work on everything from shows to campaigns. His skills as a make-up artist are impeccable, mastering the dramatic looks just as well as the no-make-up make-up ones. Definitely, one to watch out for!

Zain Zaidi
Zain Zaidi has done campaigns for companies, such as Daraz as well as TV dramas (even the hit Suno Chanda), but he remains a hidden gem in the world of hair and makeup. Truly talented, he is one artist who doesn’t need to spend hours on your face to make you look absolutely stellar. And that is a talent on its own!

Shaheen Saeed
Once a pioneering makeup artist in Pakistan, Shaheen Saeed’s fame saw a decline in the age of social media and her inability to keep up with advances that the millennium brought. But what did not go away was her brilliant artistry. A true magician, her ability to make any face her canvas and any client a stunner is outstanding.

Imaara Dharani
Toni & Guy London and Chic Studios LA-certified, Imaara Dharani is one of our favourite new makeup artists in town. Not only is she experimental and edgy in her artistry, but she also has a great understanding of products and skincare. Having been a part of several shoots for brands such as Sassy, Ideas Pret, and yes, Mashion too – its safe to say Imaara is as good as it gets.
