Lagos Bridal Makeup Artists — Prices & Top MUAs

4 tiers · top 6 MUAs · hair & trial pricing · book 6-12 months ahead

Lagos''s bridal MUA market splits between Instagram-driven mid-tier artists and established legacy names like Banke Meshida-Lawal (BM Pro), Tara Fela-Durotoye, and Bibyonce. The premium tier (₦700K-₦2.5M per bridal day) comes with a full team for the wedding party. Mid-range (₦250K-₦600K) is the realistic spot for most middle-class weddings. Pay a deposit (typically 50%) early — peak-season Saturday bookings go out 12 months.
