However, you can't argue with the fact that all of them end up looking stunning after the makeup artist applies his magic touch.

He used to take his mother's makeup and play with it when he was just five and knew he'd become a makeup artist one day.

"So, at first, I got a master’s degree in economics and only then did I follow my dream and started working as a makeup artist.” Image credits: arber_bytyqi_mua Image credits: arber_bytyqi_mua Image credits: arber_bytyqi_mua When meeting his clients, Arber's first question is what kind of occasion are they getting their makeup done for. He also asks them if they have any specific requests like a more natural or dramatic look. He then asks the brides to show the dress they're going to wear. "The design of the dress and its details reveal the style of the look the client is going for," says the makeup artisy. "Then, I analyze their facial features.” Image credits: arber_bytyqi_mua Image credits: arber_bytyqi_mua Image credits: arber_bytyqi_mua Arber is a highly sought-after makeup artist, doing as many as 60 makeups per day during the summer season.
