Seal your marriage with a kiss while looking your best. With so many makeup looks to choose from, it feels inconceivable to pick! Fortunately, there are several timeless makeup styles to capture every bride’s personality.
1. Vintage Glamor
Reminisce on old films, admire the actresses’ iconic styles, and fashion a vintage-inspired bridal look that’s entirely your own. It’s sure to capture the attention of your partner and every guest in attendance.
Soft vintage glamor is a classic combination of red lips and winged eyeliner. With a bold eyeshadow shade, defined eyebrows, and luscious eyelashes, you’ll look like the classic bride you’ve always envisioned.
2. Romantic Blushing Bride
A soft and natural approach full of nudes and pinks is perfect for peachy brides. The romantic blush style uses delicate pastels and warm tones to create a youthful and dreamy appearance.
Blended peaches and pinks on the eyes, a soft and fluttery lash, and a pretty rose-hued lip complete the look. Highlight your face’s high points, and use a variety of pinks and peaches. Don’t be afraid to go heavy on the blush for additional depth.
3. Elegant Smokey Eyes
Brides achieve depth with smokey eyes. There’s ample individuality and freedom associated with smokey eyes, from the color palette to the intensity.
You can choose shades that complement your eye color. Blue eyes favor copper and cool pinks, while green eyes pop with rose, tan, and plum shadows. Or use the base eyeshadow color to match other elements of the day, such as the bouquet or the key color of the wedding decor.
4. Bohemian Chic
The bohemian chic look brings an earthy elegance. It’s the perfect style for a bride who wants an effortless and stunning style that embraces the natural world.
This look remains a favorite for its spirited individuality. Beach bonfire weddings, forest elopements, and garden weddings booming with florals will effortlessly suit the combination of soft browns, coppers, and pinks.
5. Modern Minimalist
Don’t forget the power of simplicity. In a world where more often feels better, this isn’t the case for every bride. The modern minimalist look takes a refreshing approach that emphasizes quality over quantity.
Brides produce this look using products with a skin-like finish. A flawless base, a simple flick of liner, and a singular pop of color make a subtle statement. For accents, consider rosy cheeks, a bold lip, or shimmer eyeshadow.
Feel Like an Authentic Version of Yourself at Your Wedding
Bridal makeup can put people out of their comfort zones. That’s why there are plenty of stunning and timeless makeup styles to suit every bride’s preference.
The common myths about bridal makeup deter many women from hiring makeup artists or applying bold shades. Never doubt that it’s possible to look glamorous, feel true to yourself, and exude confidence as you walk down the aisle and bust a move at the reception. No matter which makeup style you choose, you’re one step closer to achieving the bridal look of your dreams.
