5 Fresh Bridal Hair and Makeup Looks

Use a fluffy brush to distribute the color evenly, then line eyes with a flat brush and bronze shadow, and swipe on mascara for definition. Pair with nude lip gloss.

Focus on your eyes with a healthy dose of luster shadow. Warm metallics, like copper and gold, accentuate darker skin tones. Golden highlighter lends definition to cheekbones, and nude lipstick is the ideal contrast to all that sparkle. Brown tones—instead of classic black—make smoky eyes more dewy-eyed bride than dramatic diva. Line eyes with a bronze liner, smudging it out along the lid, then add complementary light metallic shades: A sheer lipstick keeps the focus on the eyes. Why is pink so flattering?

The Basics

Because it actually does come naturally to us. We all have some rosy undertones, regardless of skin color.

Once you find the shade that works for you, use it from lid to lip for monochromatic makeup at its best. Warm skin tones and darker complexions can play with deeper, punchier pinks.

Imai suggests wearing a cotton-candy-colored shadow on lids with brown liner. Dab ivory shadow on the inner corners for an ethereal air.

A coraly lip pulls it all together. Unless you have a pretty significant wedding budget and are able to use an external make-up company, the odds are high that you are going to use the resort spa to do your hair and make-up…. The issue here is, most of our brides who come to get married here are fairly pale skinned and actually would rather look more natural in their wedding photos, like the best version of themselves, rather than like a drag-queen in a white dress on the beach… Sorry but its true….

Bearing all this in mind, I spoke to a friend of mine, Kim Parker, several months ago, who is one of the beauty editors at a leading European fashion magazine and who also worked as a beauty editor at Vogue for several years and asked for her help… I then completely forgot about it with traveling around the world, moving house and coping with pregnancy I just forgot… until a few nights ago, when I was chatting to her on Facebook and she asked if we still wanted the article….

Ok, so tips about how to look natural glowy and gorgeous in wedding pics, taking into account digital photography and hot weather….

With hot weather, the key is to think light layers of makeup that will still let your skin breathe. I like to start with freshly moisturised skin — a smooth canvas means anything you apply on top will look super fresh.

DIY Wedding Day Makeup

Olay and SKII make wonderful serum-soaked cloth masks that are literally like a skin drink. Once skin is clean and prepped, smooth on one of the new skin primers. The newest ones are light, infuse skin with skincare benefits and can help your makeup really go the distance.

I love Australian brand Becca, and their Radiance Primer is a total must in fact, I love all their glow-giving makeup. My foundation rule is: Apply with a clean brush and blend in with fingers, just where skin needs it usually down the central panel of the face where skin can be ruddy or dull.

Powder blushes will last in the heat but I like a touch of cream or gel blush blended into skin with fingers — it really makes the glow look like your own. A light dusting of bronzer on top of blush can be great to contour and warm skin, if needed.

Say, using it on eyes and lips and keeping skin velvety.
