The wedding season is really hotting up and each year there are changes in make-up looks, which are mostly inspired by celebrity weddings, celebrities at film premieres at the Oscars and reality TV shows.
It is no longer hot to be a natural bride, and to be honest, brides don’t ask anymore to be natural. The face has to be flawless, but still look like skin, and a mask-type foundation is a definite no, no!
I will be embellishing the eye make-up with eyeliner and lashes; the type of line and the type of lashes depends on the bride and the shape of her eyes.
I will be using bronzer, but not all over the face, just picking out the features to give shape and a glow to the face. I will blush the cheeks with a rose tone that has a hint of shine.
Highlighter is another must-have which emphasises the eyes, the brow bone and sits above the blusher and shimmers beautifully in photographs and in the night light.
The lips will be there but softly shaped and glossed with a beautiful, blushing tone.
It is more and more popular for the mother of the bride to come for a wedding trial make-up, and her make-up will be stronger and sexier than ever before.
So there you have it, and be careful of overdoing the fake tan, and if you must go in the sun, make sure you sunbathe with no straps, especially if you are wearing a strapless wedding dress.
