About
Hi, I'm Barna
I'm a makeup artist based in Dubai, certified by the London College of Makeup. For 10+ years I have created looks for brides, celebrities and beauty lovers who simply want to feel their best.
My style is simple: enhance the natural beauty you already have with a touch of elegance and glamour. I do every client's makeup myself, and I come to you, at home, at your hotel or at your venue, anywhere in the UAE.
I trained on the Asian & Arabic Make-up Certificate Course at the London College of Make-up, Dubai in 2020. Tap a certificate to see it in full. They are issued under my full name, Shahanaz Begum; Barna is the name I work under.

What is included in bridal and Nikkah makeup?
Nikkah and bridal looks are a specialty. In the free consultation we agree your look, whether traditional, modern or fully customised, and what your booking covers: lashes, hair styling and dupatta or veil setting can be included, depending on your look and needs, and I confirm the price with it. If you book a rehearsal, we agree in the consultation what it trials.
Will you do my makeup yourself?
Yes. I do every client's makeup myself, on every booking.

For weddings, ask as early as you can.
How long does the appointment take?
It depends on the look and on how many people need makeup, so I confirm the timing with your booking. Tell me the time you need to be ready, and I will tell you when I need to start.
Can you work with my skin type and the look I want?
Yes. I choose the products and the preparation for your skin type and any concerns, such as dry, oily or sensitive skin, and I work with every skin tone. I do Arabic, Asian and Western looks, from natural to full glam.

Bridal makeup uses long-wear techniques and waterproof products, so it holds up through the ceremony, the photos and the celebration.
