Bridal Makeup
The full sitting — base, eyes, draping and touch-ups carried through the whole ceremony. Booked well ahead of the date.
Bridal & Makeup Artistry — Sankhu,Kathmandu
Shalin Studio is the bridal & makeup practice of Lipee Shrestha — built on long, unhurried sittings and makeup made to survive tears, dancing and monsoon humidity alike.
About the studio
Shalin Studio is run by Lipee Shrestha, a makeup artist working across bridal, party and editorial makeup. Every booking starts as a conversation — about the outfit, the venue light, the hours the day will actually run — before a single brush is opened.
The studio's approach stays close to the skin: long-wear bases suited to Kathmandu's weather, colour work that photographs true under both daylight and mandap lighting, and finishing that's built to last from the first ritual to the last dance.
What she does
The full sitting — base, eyes, draping and touch-ups carried through the whole ceremony. Booked well ahead of the date.
Softer or bolder looks built around the outfit and the evening's lighting, for the events either side of the wedding day.
Makeup for pooja, sagun, tika and celebrations of every size — quick to book, made to last the whole event.
Camera-ready makeup for portfolios, pre-wedding shoots and editorial work, matched to the shoot's lighting and mood.
A lighter, high-definition base for guests who want full coverage that still reads as skin, on camera and off.
Saree and gown draping, updos and half-styles finished to sit with the rest of the look, not apart from it.
