Jaipur has more good bridal makeup artists than any one bride can meet before her wedding. This guide narrows the field to ten artists and studios with a strong public record — visible reviews, clear specialities and a portfolio a bride can check herself — and then tells you how to choose between them. It is published by Chhaya Shankar Makeovers, a Jaipur studio, and we say so plainly: we are on the list, with the same kind of facts as everyone else, and the list is not ranked.
How this list was made
- Public track record. Ratings and review counts are quoted from the public listings on WedMeGood and WeddingWire as they appeared on 13 September 2026, with the platform named beside each figure. We did not estimate, round up or add anything.
- Bridal specialisation. Everyone listed works primarily on brides and wedding functions, not only party or editorial makeup.
- Range and presence. Preference for artists who publish what they offer (HD, airbrush, traditional, hair, draping), where they are based, and whether they travel.
- Not ranked. The ten are grouped by what they are known for. Ranking artists who serve different brides at different prices would be false precision.
- Prices are "from" figures as listed, change without notice, and usually exclude trial, travel and hair; use them only to place an artist in a range.
- Corrections welcome. If a fact about your studio is out of date, tell us and we will fix it.
Awards and claims that appear only in other people's listicles and could not be verified were left out on purpose.
The ten
Chhaya Shankar Makeovers — Jagatpura (studio + academy)
This is our studio. A salon, bridal makeup studio and professional makeup academy under one roof in Jagatpura, founded by Chhaya Yadav (professionally known as Chhaya Shankar), with a team of five makeup artists and six hair artists. Bridal work covers HD, airbrush and traditional finishes, including Rajputi and Bengali bridal styles, across engagement, haldi, mehendi, sangeet, wedding and reception, with in-house hair and draping. The quality management system is ISO 9001:2015 certified. The academy's knowledge articles — on HD makeup, airbrush and undertone — are a fair way to judge how we think before you book a trial. Best for: brides who want a studio with a team, a trial venue and both HD and airbrush under one roof.
Make Me Up by Parul
One of the most-reviewed artists on WedMeGood for Jaipur — a 5.0 rating from 143 reviews at the time of writing — with reviews that repeatedly mention understanding the bride's brief and subtle, elegant looks. Best for: brides who want a soft, refined bridal look and a large body of recent reviews to read.
Yogesh Sharma Make Up Artist
Listed on WedMeGood at 4.9 from 95 reviews, with a per-function price of ₹32,000 at the time of writing — the higher end of local pricing — and a long-standing presence among Jaipur's bridal artists. Best for: brides prioritising an established name and prepared for the higher end of the local range.
Himani Machra
WedMeGood shows 4.9 from 56 reviews and a listed ₹15,000 per function — a strong review record at a mid-range price. Best for: brides comparing value against review depth.
Makeup by Komal Choudhary
WedMeGood: 4.9 from 48 reviews. A consistently rated artist whose portfolio is worth checking for the contemporary bridal looks Jaipur brides increasingly ask for. Best for: brides wanting a modern, glam finish.
Universh Makeup
WedMeGood: 5.0 from 15 reviews, listed at ₹18,000 per function. Fewer reviews than the artists above but a clean record and clear pricing. Best for: brides comfortable with a smaller review base at a mid-range price.
Pooja — Mansarovar–Sanganer
WeddingWire: 5.0 from 28 reviews, from ₹18,000, described as a freelance artist specialising in subtle looks. Best for: brides on the Mansarovar–Sanganer side who want natural bridal makeup and an artist who comes to them.
Prabh Makeover
WeddingWire: 5.0 from 16 reviews, from ₹22,000, with a stated focus on personalised looks for each bride. Best for: brides wanting a bespoke consultation-led approach.
Ridhira Makeovers
WeddingWire: 5.0 from 15 reviews, from ₹15,000; the listing describes a certified artist with more than six years of experience. Best for: brides seeking a certified artist at a mid-range price.
Dastoor Makeovers
A studio named in independent Jaipur listings for HD and airbrush bridal makeup alongside nail art, lash extensions and mehndi — useful for a bride who wants several services coordinated in one place. Best for: brides who want makeup, nails, lashes and mehndi handled together.
Also worth a look
Ramaya By Shivani (WeddingWire 5.0 from 17 reviews, from ₹10,000), Visages by Shubhi in Jagatpura (from ₹10,000), Diva N Debonair (a beauty lounge with fashion makeup artists) and The Makeup Studio in Mansarovar (known for workshops as well as bridal work) all appear on the public listings with credible profiles.
How to choose between them
Ten good names are only useful with a method. The short version:
- Shortlist three by locality, budget range and the finish you want (HD, airbrush, traditional — read which bridal makeup is right for you if unsure).
- Read full galleries, not highlights — look for brides with your skin depth and your outfit colours, photographed by a wedding photographer, not only in studio light.
- Ask who will actually be at your chair on each function day, and whether a backup exists.
- Book a trial with your final outfit colour and jewellery, in daylight, and take one photo under flash in a dim room. The trial decides — not the list, not the reviews.
- Confirm the details in writing: functions, timings, hair and draping, travel, trial, advance and cancellation terms.

Frequently asked questions
Who is the best makeup artist in Jaipur? There is no single answer that is honest. The right artist depends on your skin, your look, your functions, your budget and whether she is free on your date. This guide lists ten artists and studios with strong public track records and explains how to compare them; the trial decides.
How much does a bridal makeup artist cost in Jaipur? Marketplace listings in September 2026 show local artists from roughly ₹10,000 to ₹32,000 per function, with trials usually charged separately and travelling metro artists costing considerably more. See our separate guide to bridal makeup cost in Jaipur for what changes the price.
How early should I book a makeup artist in Jaipur? For a November–February wedding, four to six months ahead is comfortable; popular artists take bookings a season ahead for peak dates. Book the trial four to eight weeks before the wedding.
Is this list ranked? No. The ten are grouped by what they are known for, not ranked one to ten, because ranking artists who serve different brides at different prices would be false precision. Chhaya Shankar Makeovers publishes this guide and is listed with the same facts as everyone else.
Should I choose a studio or a freelance artist? A studio offers a fixed venue for trials, a team for family members and a backup artist if someone is unwell; a freelance artist offers a single consistent hand and often travels to you. Both can be excellent; ask who exactly will be at your chair on the day.
