For five years, she managed a beauty salon in Pakistan where she was a makeup artist and hair stylist. Her work has been featured in Elegant Wedding Magazine, 2015.

Meena has an experienced team of hairstylists who excel in curling, straightening, and updos. Meena offers makeovers for those special nights on the town. Airbrush makeup is also provided by the business. She is licensed and offers the following services:
Group discounts
Contouring
Fake lashes
Tattoo coverage
How they work
Bridal makeup trial services are offered during full face makeup will be applied. The final look of the bride is decided during this time. Consultation services are also provided.
Choosing a make-up artist is not an easy decision, especially when it's for your own wedding! After reading multiple blogs, reviewing various portfolios I came across Meena's work. What is impressive about her work is the variety she brings to the table.
I wasn't looking to be transformed, I wasn't looking to be a show stopper but I was looking to feel my best on all my wedding events. Looking back what I appreciate the most about Meena are 3 things:
1. Advice on daily care leading up to the big day: Follow her advice, it makes a big difference.
2. Make-up Trial: I highly recommend taking a trial especially if you're going for bridal make-up. Even though I had seen Meena's work online, I was still nervous. I wanted to experiment with my looks and Meena educated me throughout the trial session.
TIP: To get a better idea wear your wedding outfit and jewelry (or similar outfit) else the make-up will look drastic.
3. Research your LOOKS ahead of time (Make-up and Hair!): Show Meena what you're looking for or at-least have an idea and leave the rest to her. I went for a royal look for wedding, dramatic look for reception and bold & girly look for cocktail. On my wedding day, when I was the most nervous like any other bride, I couldn't keep my eyes off myself in the mirror. I looked absolutely stunning once Meena was done with her magic!
Thank you so much, Meena!

Worst makeup artist out there
She only cares about the money and not the customers. Once you book her, your deposit cannot be refunded. Also her makeup look is super bad and cakey and uses cheap products.

MS STUDIO's reply:
This is not only me but all makeup artist don’t refund your money when you cancel your appointment at the eleventh hour .
As long as my products are concern I used one of the best quality like foundation from OCC air brush and clinic
Eyeshadows from Anastasia Beverley Hills
Setting powder from sheer cover , smashbox mascara ,Anastasia Beverley Hills lipstick,max fixing mist
If you don’t have knowledge of makeup then it’s not my problem ...I told you that during trial is just an idea we do full service on wedding day we can not spend same time and concentration on trials what we do on wedding day any way thank you

Exceeded Expectations!
Meena came highly recommended so when she agreed to help me with my wedding I was ecstatic.
She exceeded all my expectations, worth every penny!
Meena is a true professional, very organized, talented, patient, and very detail oriented - everything had to be perfect. She is also very kind and just an amazing human! She did not rush and made sure everything was up to the highest standards.
Being Romanian I had no experience with all the intricacies of a hindu wedding and Meena was absolutely amazing. I had two different looks, one for the wedding and one for the reception.
She did everything to make me look like a princess: hair, makeup, setting my jewelry, setting by dupatta for the wedding.
My mom also had her makeup and hair done by Meena and she was thoroughly impressed with Meena's skills and let me tell you my mom is not an easy person to please especially since she has sensitive skin and most products irritate her face. All the products Meena used worked really well for both of us.
There are not enough words to express how grateful I am to Meena for all her effort. I highly recommend her for all your wedding needs. I will definitely reach out to Meena again if I need a glamour look.
Notes:
Ask and listen to Meena's advice on how to take care of your skin, because the better skin you have the better the makeup will look.
Your trial makeup session is an opportunity for you and your makeup artist to get a feel for what you like.
Bring pictures or items what you will wear so she can find the right colour pallet for your look.
Because of the time constraint it will not look as good as your wedding day makeup/hair.
My wedding and reception end results looked absolutely amazing because Meena spent a lot of time perfecting every detail.

Memorable for A lifetime!
Meena Sadia - A very professional and talented MUA and an extremely warm person! A person who you can trust for your most important day of your life!!
I let her know my needs and she made my day extremely very special!
Meena is that MUA, who I found on instagram, after immense research sitting in the other extreme of the world, from New Zealand!
I found her work to be very clean, checked her on YouTube too, before I was convinced to book her for my big day!!
And undoubtedly she cracked both my looks and I could not ask for more!!🙏🏻
Thank you Meena for making my day extra special!! Lots of love and may you shine with more talent, warmth, fame and prosperity❤️
