I — About

Bridal glam for every celebration, every skin tone.

Makeup by Muizza is a freelance bridal and event makeup business run by Muizza Sukhera, working with brides and guests across the Chicago area. Every culture, faith and skin tone is welcome behind the chair.

Much of the portfolio comes from South Asian weddings, from the dholki and mehndi through the nikkah, and that experience carries into any celebration — a church wedding, a quinceañera, a birthday, a graduation.

Every booking is on location — Muizza travels to you, so there is no salon to reach on the morning of your event. Bridal bookings include a full consultation, dupatta and jewelry setting, and a look built for event lighting and photography.

Appointments are requested online and confirmed with a short contract, so timing, travel and pricing are agreed on well before the day itself.
