Finding the right makeup artist in Singapore often hinges on the occasion as much as the style, whether it is a wedding morning, a ROM, an editorial shoot or a gala dinner. This guide gathers ten established makeup artists in Singapore, spanning bridal specialists, editorial and celebrity names, and dedicated Malay and Indian bridal experts. Each was checked against its own website or portfolio; treat it as a shortlist, not a strict ranking.

1. Andrea Claire

Andrea Claire is a Canadian hair and makeup artist based in Singapore whose portfolio runs across beauty, fashion, advertising and celebrity work as well as bridal. She works in both makeup and hair, which suits editorial shoots, campaigns and red-carpet appointments where one artist handles the whole look. Couples after a polished, camera-ready finish rather than a traditional bridal template are her natural audience.

2. Larry Yeo

Larry Yeo is an established Singapore makeup artist known for editorial and commercial work, and his portfolio notes he handles hair styling alongside makeup on many shoots. He is known for a skin-first approach that treats preparation and skincare as part of the finished look rather than an afterthought. His work leans editorial and celebrity rather than volume bridal, making him a fit for shoots, campaigns and events wanting a refined, magazine-style result.

3. Makeup Entourage

Makeup Entourage is a hair and makeup team founded by veteran artist Dollei Seah that bills itself as a one-stop partner for weddings and shoots. Its services span pre-wedding shoots, ROM, actual-day bridal, groom, bridesmaids and mothers, alongside corporate, editorial and production work, and it offers housecall appointments for on-site preparation. The breadth makes it a practical pick for couples who want the whole entourage covered by a single studio.

4. Autelier Makeup

Autelier Makeup describes itself as a team of professional makeup artists based in Singapore, led by founder Cherry Au and specialising in bridal makeup, event styling and corporate work. Working as a larger team rather than a solo artist, it can cover a bride plus her entourage and says it coordinates with partners across photography, gowns, hairstyling and wedding planning. It suits couples who prefer booking makeup as part of a wider, coordinated wedding setup.

5. Dear Muse Makeup & Hairstyling

Dear Muse is a bridal makeup and hairstyling studio near Clarke Quay, led by principal artist Celine with a small team of associate artists. It describes itself as one of Singapore's bridal specialists and tailors looks from natural and glowing to bold and glamorous, while its work also extends to editorial, commercial and headshot shoots. Because makeup and hair are handled in-house, it is a fit for brides who want both parts of the look from one studio.

6. Beauty Without Filter

Beauty Without Filter is a Singapore makeup and hair studio that works across bridal, from pre-wedding shoots and ROM to actual-day looks and the wider bridal party, as well as commercial and editorial shoots. It also runs makeup classes and corporate workshops, and by its own description customises each look to the client's features rather than applying a fixed style. The mix of wedding and production work makes it a fit for clients who want an artist comfortable on both a shoot set and a wedding morning.

7. Joyce Yeo Makeup

Joyce Yeo Makeup covers bridal and entourage makeup along with events, galas, corporate shoots and grooming classes, framing the work around helping clients find a look that fits them rather than chasing trends. The artist has expanded beyond bridal into personal branding, professional headshots and Korean-style personal colour analysis, which she says draws on more than a decade in the industry. That advisory angle suits clients who want guidance on colours and styling, not just application on the day.

8. Cynderella Makeup & Hair

Cynderella Makeup & Hair is a studio led by artistic director Cynthia Oh with a small full-time team, offering bridal, editorial, commercial and event makeup and hair. It lists mobile, on-site service, and its artists cover a range of styles from Korean-style natural makeup to Japanese-style looks and Western editorial work. The spread of specialisms within one team makes it useful when a shoot or wedding calls for a particular aesthetic.

9. Gayathri Menon Makeovers

Gayathri Menon Makeovers focuses on Indian and Asian bridal makeup, with a portfolio that also takes in fashion, editorial, television and photoshoot work. The artist offers personal makeup sessions and workshops alongside bridal bookings, and the portfolio moves between traditional bridal, glamour and fashion looks. She is a natural starting point for brides after Indian bridal makeup and styling, or for shoots wanting that aesthetic.

10. The Wedding Brocade

The Wedding Brocade is a Malay bridal specialist that, by its own account, has focused on Malay wedding looks since 2011, with in-house makeup artists and hairstylists working alongside its bridal-wear atelier. Its makeup and hair are offered on-site at the couple's location and span solemnisation, songket and modern bridal styles, with a trial available before the day. It is aimed at Malay brides who want makeup, hair and attire handled together by one team.

How to choose

  • Book a trial before the day, especially for a wedding or big event, and bring reference photos and the outfit's colours. Use the trial to check how the look wears over several hours and how it photographs under the lighting you will actually be in.
  • Match the artist to the occasion and the look you want. Bridal specialists, editorial artists and Indian or Malay bridal experts work in different registers, so shortlist from portfolios that already show the styles, skin tones and features closest to yours.
  • Confirm the logistics in writing: whether the artist travels to you or works from a studio, the earliest start time they accept, any travel or early-morning surcharge, and how many people in your entourage they can cover before a second artist is needed.
  • Ask how the look is built to last in Singapore's heat and humidity, and whether they offer options such as airbrush or long-wear products. If you have sensitive skin or allergies, raise it early and ask which brands they use.
  • Get the scope, date and cancellation terms in a written quote before paying any deposit, and check whether hair styling is included or billed separately, since many artists price makeup and hair as add-ons.
