About Me

Gagan Chohan South Asian Bridal Specialist

Gagan Chohan

I’m a 34-year-old Businesswoman , wife and proud mother to my 2-year-old daughter, Raza. My journey as a makeup artist began 6 years ago during a difficult period when I was struggling with personal mental health issues. Makeup saved my life and gave me a passion for living that I now cherish deeply.

Every person who sits in my chair has a story, and my goal is to give them more than just a glam transformation. I provide an experience—a safe, memorable, and open space where we can chat about anything and everything in life. My artistry isn’t just about enhancing beauty; it’s about creating moments of joy, confidence, and connection.

My journey started with my first brand, Pink Lotus Artistry. After my daughter Raza was born, I rebranded to Raza Beauty—a name that means “contentment,” a reflection of what my work brings me. In 2024, I underwent a brand revival and, as part of my comeback, added “Brand” to the name. This represents my vision of creating not just a business, but a legacy that no one can take away from me.

Career Highlights

• I am the first Indian woman to win two double awards in one night for bridal makeup and hair at the New Zealand Wedding Industry Awards.

• I’ve had the honor of glamming Netflix India’s Bollywood Wives.

• I’ve been featured on two New Zealand podcasts as a Makeup Artist & successful businesswoman in New Zealand.

Over the years, I’ve glammed countless brides, and I take immense pride in my work. It’s my mission to make every bride feel special, powerful, and ready to walk down the aisle on their big day. Seeing the joy and confidence on their faces reminds me why I love what I do.

At Raza Beauty Brand, we’re not just about makeup—we’re about creating contentment, memories, and a legacy.
