TM's MakeUp Artistry

r/makeup was getting done but everything went smoothly. The artists recommended were great, showed up on time, and everybody loved their hair/makeup, especially with how customized it was to each outfit

ly captured the magic of my special day.

set up a trial with her after not so successful 3 trials and had almost lost hope of finding the right fit. She hears you out patiently and asks you details that normally no other artist would ask, it ensures that you do the research and homework before you meet her so you have clarity on what you want as a gazillion different looks out there can make you all confused and indecisive. She never imposes her choices on you, she asks you multiple times if you feel comfortable and if she is heading the route of what you had in mind. She is easy going and knows her art way too well! I highly recommend her to all those brides to be out there who are nervous about how they would look, Timsi will be sure to take care of you all!!

bridal entourage!) were all extremely happy with the final outcome. They come so well prepared with some of them carrying their own lights, chairs, power cords, tables and it almost feels like you are in some Hollywood set. They also offer to play up some music to calm those jittery nerves, joke around and make you feel super comfortable. Timsi worked on me (the bride) and was able to create the exact same vision I had in mind. She used extensions and airbrush on me, we tried that at her super elaborate trial and it was more than what I had expected. Her studio is super cute, she write down notes, makes face charts and on the day of the wedding shows up with a big broad smile on her face. Her station is super neat, uncluttered and she is big on sanitation, you can totally see that trickle down to her team as well. Over all if there was a way to give her more than 5, I'd do that in a heartbeat - that's how brilliant she is!!!

ount of planning ever! Timsi is brilliant, very hard working and uses her knowledge to offer looks that will not only resonate with you but also leave you looking flawless! Her application whether hair or makeup last more than a night and thats coz she invests so much time in each of her work. I hired her and her team for 4 events and I couldnt have been more satisfied. I recommend her highly! You cant go wrong with her :)

and uses more than a decade worth of experience to ensure that on the day of the events everything is a smooth ride. She is beyond talented and very very easy going in terms of not pushing you to wear a ton of makeup, she encourages you to be you and just by a touch of glamour here and there she is able to create different looks for each events. I hired her team for 8 of my guests over 3 events and oh boy! what a smooth show she put up. Everything was on point, no dramas! and all of my guests were super happy with the services. Thank you again Timsi for being such a stellar!

keup held for the entirety of the wedding and everything was done on time with utmost professionalism. Plus, Timsi and the other artists were an absolute delight to spend the evening with!

my wedding day and I cannot recommend her enough.

me out to stay in touch with me through the entire process of finalizing details like hair accessories, jewelry and color palette to name a few. She took every tiny detail into account while recommending the bridal look for me, she has an eye for what would look the best from all angles on camera. Her list of items to consider for your touch up kit on the wedding day is Gold! It made my life so much easy. She thinks at a level where you wouldnt normally do in order to give us a smooth ride on our special day. She is all about full 360 degree experience and not just hair and makeup. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to making their lives easy on their wedding day! Invest in her services and trust me you wont ever regret it!

ntire process in detail and also made me factor in a lot of the variables on the wedding day that could affect the timeline significantly. She has a well rounded approach, infact she guides and makes sure that you think through every tiny detail on the wedding day to ensure a smooth ride. Her trials are extremely detailed backed with a bunch of forms and research that she'd expect you to do prior to your trial day. On the trial day, she does the entire application in detail, gives feedback, hears you out and make notes with photos to prepare herself for the wedding day. Her personality calms you down and ensures you feel your absolute best without any jitters. I hired her for my 5 events and every look was a story in itself, i got a ton of compliments and she made it an experience of a lifetime for me to remember. My husband was wowed by all my looks and felt i didnt look like a porcelain doll, infact just a more glamorous version of myself. Thank you Timsi for all that you did! You rock :)

hire someone to do it for my wedding day. But after going back and forth a few times with her on the phone, I finally told her I wanted to hire her. One thing I love about her was that every time I talked to her, she never made me feel pressured to hire her services. She was understanding of the fact that I was a full time student with a very small wedding budget. She did a trial about a month before the wedding at her house and on the wedding day, she came to my house to help me get ready. She was so sweet and helpful (Plus, she gave me some tips on doing my own makeup which I really appreciated). Everyone loved my makeup on my wedding day and I love looking at all my pictures from that day. It was worth the money I spent. I am so glad I found her and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a makeup artist. Timsi, I loved working with you and I wish the best for you as you leave the bay area and start over in SoCal! God bless you!

discuss the type of look I wanted for 3 of my events. In the trial, she heard my requests and also suggested hair and color schemes that would suit me according to the event. For the trial she mixed the hair for one event and make up for another so as to give me more confidence for all the 3 looks. She took copious notes on the day of our trial. She was well prepared for all the events and also made sure I was. She took her time to adjust the color schemes so that it is according to my liking. She draped my saree, lehengas and dupattas perfectly. She also has a team of artists who are great to work with. Overall having Timsi as my makeup artist was an amzing, hassle-free and fun experience for me.

ll the planning and coordinating! I really appreciate her and her team for making the hair and makeup services for my wedding stress free!

a princess and star and myself all at the same time. My now husband was floored. HIGHLY recommended for bridal hair and makeup.

si was that she not only delivered, but she was very attentive during the trial as well as the wedding day itself. I am very very picky and for every little adjustment I wanted to make, she listened to me, provided her professional feedback and then ultimately let me decide if I was satisfied. I have come across many make-up artists that will try to tell you something looks good when in reality you are very uncomfortable. Timsi did not do that to me. She was not satisfied until I was happy with the outcome! She made me feel comfortable and delivered exactly what I was looking for. She was also honest if something I wanted wasn’t realistic. I appreciated that on my big day as I look back at the pictures and am very happy with the outcome! Timsi is also responsive and in a timely manner. I had no issues finalizing my contract with her and she was clear with all costs/fees upfront. I would recommend her to any bride!

e events. I knew when I met her at the trial that I was in expert hands. She listened to what I wanted, incorporated ideas from the looks I had emailed her beforehand, and was able to give me excellent advice (as I am someone who knows very little about hair and makeup). She is also very friendly and easy to talk to, and helped me stay relaxed on my wedding day. I got so many compliments from friends and family at all three events on my hair and makeup. She did an awesome job on my traditional South Indian bridal look for the wedding ceremony. She is also excellent with hair extensions and did an amazing half up/down for the Sangeet and a lovely sideswept look for the reception. If you are looking for a hair/makeup artist who is patient, fun, easy to work with, and will make you look and feel beautiful on your wedding day, look no further!

she was punctual, organized, and calm. I had a South Indian wedding so she also tied my sari. It all came out beautifully. She's also so sweet which makes a big difference. Definitely recommend her services!

ed up to them. As anyone who has dealt with wedding vendors can attest, not all of them are that responsive, but Timsi always replied to emails quickly and answered my questions thoroughly. She has a variety of bridal packages to fit different budgets & wedding timelines. I hired her for a full day to do both hair & makeup for my wedding ceremony, and then a makeup touchup and different hairdo for my reception. I had a rough idea of the look I wanted for my wedding & reception, but she asked lots of questions which really helped me to think about the details that went into creating the look. If you can afford it, I highly recommend doing a trial session with her. Not only was it a lot of fun, but it also was really helpful to see the look "live" and make tweaks. Timsi had lots of helpful suggestions, and was very patient and really listened to my input. I requested a few changes to the look after our trial, and she was very responsive to my feedback and flexible about making all the adjustments I requested. On the day of my wedding, she was prompt, friendly & upbeat, and put me at ease. The end result was stunning. I felt like the most beautiful version of myself, which was exactly what I wanted. I didn't want to have so much makeup on that I couldn't recognize myself any more (my daily makeup is very minimal). Timsi accomplished that, and I got tons of compliments on both my hair & makeup all day long. If you've made it to the end of this review, thanks for reading. I would highly recommend hiring Timsi for your bridal hair & makeup. You'll be happy you did!

t look that I wanted and made me look gorgeous on my special day :) Timsi is committed to make sure that she exceeds your expectations and will not let you leave her studio dissatisfied. Thanks to Timsi, I got soooooo many compliments!!!

d - my bridal hair and makeup came out beautifully! When I first contacted her, she responded almost immediately. She was happy to do a phone call with me when I had some concerns, and fully addressed those concerns. Once the contract was signed, she contacted me a few months later to schedule a trial before the wedding. The trial was awesome - she did my hair for the reception exactly as I had envisioned - then she did half my face with the makeup I wanted for the reception and half with the makeup I wanted for the wedding. Both looks came out perfectly on the days of! I was happy about two things: 1. She had made extensive notes and drew out exactly what I had wanted on a paper outline of my face based on our discussions at the trial. Again, the amount of professionalism and care she put into her work is awesome! 2. She was not only on time but early! She got to the hotel before I did, and when I expressed that I was running late, she was very understanding about it. I'd highly recommend Timsi to do your bridal makeup and hair!

) and help me carry out the perfect look for my wedding. I had a traditional South Indian wedding so it was important to me that she would be able to work with the look I was going for (saree to lehenga) but be able to do it well with the fair skin and light hair (I am as white as a girl can get, let me tell you). For the day of my wedding, Timsi was calm (which I needed) and SO organized. She made getting ready more fun than I could have imagined <3.

ir. My first bridal makeup trial (somewhere else) left me looking like a stranger and feeling uncomfortable. Enter Timsi, who helped me articulate my makeup wishes (it turns out I do have some) and then executed them perfectly! I received more compliments than I can count at both events. She made me look like the best version of myself-very elegant and yet totally natural and like myself! The miracles weren't temporary either: my makeup held up perfectly until the end of both events, despite some very sweaty dancing at the Sangeeth and some serious sunny/windy conditions at the outdoor wedding. Bravo! In addition to being an exceptionally talented artist, Timsi is a joy to work with. She showed up early for both events (with wedding prep time starting at 6:30 am!) and was incredibly calm and kind throughout the process-even in the chaos of the bridal suite turning into a 40 person sari draping center. I'm looking for excuses to work with Timsi again myself--so I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone!

e her recommendations as well. She was always open to trying the ideas I suggested and just as open to scrapping those ideas when I didn't like them on me. Her recommendations reflected deep expertise in her art. She helped me figure out the looks that would work on me, specifically, and made me feel very comfortable going into my wedding. I was super impressed with how she kept record of every detail from our trial, and didn't miss a single thing. She was also always on top of communications, responsive and detail-oriented. Timsi is incredibly professional, and the best calming presence you can ask for while getting ready on your special day, something that's quite memorable for me as I look back on my wedding. I completely trusted her and truly felt like I was in good hands. She went out of her way to accommodate people around me, while keeping my stress levels low and making me look perfect, right on schedule all at the same time. I received many compliments at all three of the events that Timsi did my hair and makeup for - Sangeet, Indian (Sikh) wedding and Christian wedding. Working with Timsi, I was able to vary my look for all the events and feel comfortable in every one of them. My makeup held up perfectly till the end of every event, needing NO touch-ups. Ladies, you will not regret going with Timsi!

h she blends seamlessly with your outfits. Her way of hair styling is very detailed and creative . She also draped my sarees and I was able to carry it so easily through out my special days..(wedding & reception). Overall I was thrilled by her work and enjoyed looking beautiful through her creative touch ups!! Thank you Timsi! I highly recommend Timsi for your special day and I can say you will never be disappointed.

le with what she did. She did an amazing work on both my makeup and hair, it lasted the whole day and I received a lot of compliments. She is knowledgeable and very skilled at what she does. Her work is just amazing but other than that she as a person is great to work with. If you have a big event ahead ,Timsi is the person you can trust with.

O attentive. She is very skilled at different styles of hair and makeup (including Indian style) - we didn't even have a trial session, and she answered all my questions leading up to our sessions. I am SO thankful to her for making my special day absolutely perfect!

time for us to do a trial run a couple of months before the wedding. She was so sweet and wonderful to work with, I immediately knew that I made the right choice. I received countless compliments on my hair and makeup. Even my husband, who normally hates it when I have my makeup done for an event said she was the best makeup artist I've ever had and the only person that still made me look like myself! I was so thankful to have her for my wedding weekend. It still amazes me that she was able to have me ready at 7am and still have my make up, hair and dupatta still holding up perfectly through a hot day for our post-wedding photos at 3pm. And then, despite, running late and having limited time, still was able to completely redo my look in time for the reception! She really respects your opinion and cares immensely about making you feel your best on your special day.

in types, hair styles, and makeup styles. She's skilled at Indian style makeup and hair, including South Indian hair styles. She's also someone who will work with you to bring any hair/makeup inspiration to life. We were particularly impressed with her creativity and flexibility in incorporating jewelry/accessories into the hairstyle. For example, on the day of the wedding, we wants to add on a large hair accessory into my hairstyle. Even though we had not discussed this or brought it to the hair trial, she incorporated it effortlessly and beautifully without any complaints. For makeup, Timsi showed her creativity in complimenting the colors of my clothes into my makeup. She did so keeping my personal style and makeup preferences in mind. She did this for all three of the events which we had hired her for, while keeping each of the makeup looks unique. Overall, Timsi is very professional. She is extremely knowledgeable about makeup and hair, easy to work with, and always on time and prompt. She is very sincere in her work and her results always show that. As an added bonus, she is such a sweet heart, and is kind and personable as well. I would recommend her to any bride to make your special day perfect.

had great complexion. She also recommended getting hair extensions which was a great decision. She took my desires and wants to heart and gave me two beautiful styles (for both my Indian and Western wedding). Would definitely recommend!

te with and was always very prompt and professional in her responses. During the consultation, she really listened to what I was looking for and helped me come up with the perfect look for the big day. On the day of the elopement, she arrived precisely on time and was very conscientious of the timing so that we were able to get out the door on time and were ready to go. She was very warm and friendly throughout the whole process. Timsi, thank you so much for helping to make the day perfect!!

lso very simple, up in a bun or ponytail. I’m not great at styling or changing my hair look. But like most brides, I really wanted to look beautiful for my wedding. My lack of makeup experience and the high stakes of a wedding, made me incredibly intimidated and overwhelmed! I scheduled a trial with an artist whose website pictures impressed me but it was a disaster. I left with layers upon layers of foundation and my face was painted with a variety of colors. I didn’t look like me and I didn’t feel pretty. This disaster occurred with two more artists. Needless to say, when I went to TM artistry for a trial I was at my breaking point. I was on the verge of tears and at my wits end. And then a miracle happened…Timsi Malhotra! Her bright smile, professionalism, and compassion welcomed me back into the joy all brides should have when preparing for the biggest day of their lives. Timsi listened to all my concerns with an open mind and made me feel heard. She took my requests to heart and gently educated me about her artistry. She knew how to balance my vision with what would look best for photographs. Timsi is an incredibly intelligent artist with a depth of knowledge and experience with wedding styling. Furthermore, she is such a kind person who really makes a bride feel protected. I truly felt that she was looking out for me and absolutely wanted to make me feel and look beautiful. Her makeup and hair styling were flawless. She gave me great advice and at the end of that trial I looked and felt amazing. That feeling was surpassed on my wedding day. Timsi arrived early and well prepared. She went to work and styled me just like our trial. She helped me with my duputta setting and jewelry…also areas I had no knowledge about. Timsi is an intelligent artist who knows her field. She has the experience and expertise to tackle all situations. Furthermore, she has the professionalism and kindness to make any bride feel relaxed and taken care of. I truly felt that she was looking out for me and wanted me to look and feel my best. I walked down the aisle feeling wonderful. My friends and family were stunned by my transformation. As I look back now at my wedding, the best decision I made of the whole event was hiring Timsi! She was the most professional vendor and made the biggest impact on the joy of my wedding because she made me feel amazing. I would give her 10 stars if I could. She is a blessing to any bride. Without hesitation, I recommend Timsi to any bride. Thank you Timsi!!!!

phone and always responded to any questions or concerns I have. She was very professional and organized and I trusted her completely to give me the exact look I want on the day of my wedding. She took out 4 hours one morning to do a full trial to me and go over the natural wedding look I wanted to ensure I was happy on the day of. She had offered to look at my outfits to make sure everything matches and kept sending me ideas and new makeup types as the days got closer. Timsi took her time the day of my wedding to ensure that my ceremony makeup and outfit draping was perfect! She gave me a completely new look in no time for the reception! The comments I got at the wedding were out of this world and people kept asking who did my hair and makeup. Timsi made me feel like a perfect bride, listened to exactly what I wanted and I couldnt have been happier. If you want someone who is reliable, professional, has a very natural style and a very easy going, fun person to work with, definitely book Timsi!

s really enjoy the experience. I was extremely lucky to find both with Timsi! She is very attentive to details and is creative in bringing out the best in you. I'm not very knowledgeable about hair and make up, and by just showing her some photos and just indicating what I sort of liked, she created the most amazing looks for me! She is also sooo friendly, fun and accommodating. I got SO MANY compliments for both my wedding and reception look, I can't wait for the photos!! I felt so special on the big day, largely thanks to Timsi. She stayed on for 8 hours for me through the ceremony & reception change at a reasonable price too, and her make up assistant (Abhilasha) was wonderful for my bhabi and mother as well. Highly, highly recommend TM's Makeup Artistry, you're in for a treat

n. The first day was a traditional Mehndi and the second day was a more traditional western wedding. The looks she created were stunning, glamorous but natural, and photographed beautifully! As a wedding planner I would recommend Timsi over and over again!

the process she was quick to respond to my questions, and accommodating to my requests. At my trial she was able to make great recommendations in order to achieve the look I was going for (like hair extensions for length and volume). She took pictures of hair and makeup that I found on Pinterest and was able to recreate them perfectly. Even when I had a few suggestions for changes to the hair and makeup she was so accommodating and did not take offense. On the day of the wedding she showed up right on time with her beauty team, and got straight to work. Timsi was so calming to be around, and did a phenomenal job with both my hair and makeup. I thought the trial was amazing, but the actual product was just stunning! I also want to speak to her beauty team that worked on my bridesmaids and the two moms. They did a phenomenal job as well! All of the girls looked so beautiful, and they were able to accomplish the looks that each girl wanted. They were all very friendly and professional. I highly recommend TM's Makeup Artistry for any event you might need hair and makeup for!

le that went through a tunnel and the false eyelashes never fell off! She was really great about creating and understanding the "look" I was going for, and also was very helpful about recommending vendors for other things I hadn't secured yet. She was also super flexible and agreed to do the make up for my mother less than a week beforehand! For absolutely full disclosure, the only downside was that due to Bay Area traffic she was a little late (<10 minutes), but that was literally the only not-glowing thing I could say about Timsi and such a small factor in our general experiences with her.

yed in place all night! We looked and felt gorgeous from morning til night. I have had my hair and make-up done by other professionals and what stands out is that Timsi takes the time to understand what you want and what the "feel" of your wedding is, and the high quality of her products that make everything stay in place from eye-makeup to curls. All my bridesmaids were blown away by the quality of the work.

gig). Between the lapse of our last messages to each other, she booked another client for my date with NO warning. I wasn't even asked for payment to reserve the date, with the warning that someone else was interested in my date. I would have happily paid that day. I'd be warned about her professionalism if she's going to treat clients like that.

++ Recommend to everyone!

ng and very patient. A big thumbs up !

eup said that my makeup was perfect. Timsi applied individual false lashes which really made my eyes pop! She did a wonderful job on my mom and relatives – each one requested something different and she tailored each look to their requests. She really can do anything, you just have to communicate what you want and you will not be disappointed. And everyone loved my makeup

and beauticians, I came across Timsi’s profile and work. I simply loved her work as displayed on yelp and her website, so I had my mind set on her :) and I had my first conversation with her. Right from our first conversation till today, she has been professional, welcoming and friendly at all times. She is pretty flexible with all the needs. - She understands and helps scheduling/rescheduling appointment date and times based on how busy we get with wedding prep. - She understands last minute delays and running errands for wedding prep and adjusts accordingly. - She understands the last minute 's panic and anxiety and she takes care of you like anything. The best part about her is she knows what she is doing. So, you can totally rely on her for your main day :). - She is systematic and super organized with her work. She will send you documents well before hand that helps you to be prepared for trial sessions as well as for the main day make up. - She knows what would suit your skin the best. - She realizes based on your hair length and texture, what kind of hairstyle would suit your face and dress. - She keeps asking about how we feel about the make up and hairstyle to consider the bride’s comfort zone at all times. I had lovely experience getting my bridal make done by her and I would recommend her to all the couples out there that are looking for bridal services and packages. She is simply the best. Thanks once again Timsi for everything :).

d about how wonderful she was to work with since I had not heard of her services before and was used to working with referrals only. Her responses to my requests were incredibly prompt and thorough, her advice was sound, and she follows your vision to the T. She did my hair and makeup and I got compliments all evening for it. We gave her a picture of what my mom wanted for her hair and she was able to mimic it and make it look even better than the picture! I think that goes to show how dedicated she is to ensuring her client's happiness with the end result. I think my favorite part about her is her cleanliness. She never double dips, she always uses new brushes, she sanitizes everything, and she uses professional products. I have gotten my makeup done so many times, but she is by far the cleanest and neatest professional I have worked with. I fully intend to book her services again and recommend her for future brides!

she did it so beautifully and professionally. She didn't rush or get stressed. She was smiling all through the work and also, multitasking by addressing her customers at the vendor booth. I haven't come across many who are so good at handling multiple people and yet manage to have that smile on! Love her work ethic, if you haven't checked out her work yet, I highly recommend you to do so! I would definitely go back to Timsi for her to work her magic on my face :) Good job Timsi.

to decide, she will have great ideas for you. I cannot recommend her enough.
