Classic Bridal Makeup

Bare-Faced
This is an elegant and uniform look that uses a conservative amount of pale pink blush in conjunction with lip gloss for a formal, clean look.

Bright Eyes Makeup
Create a fresh look by matching colorful but natural shades of lipstick and blush. This style also uses a dialed-back version of the cat eye look to place emphasis on the eyes.


Glamorous Bridal Makeup

Burst of Pink
By using more traditional colors for the eyes and skin while adding bold pink lipstick to emphasize your lips you can create a reserved glamor look.

Smokey Bridal Makeup
To achieve this sultry sexy look, smudge eyeliner along the upper lash line while complimenting it with eggplant eyeshadow to highlight your eyes. Use softer natural colors to contour your cheekbones while emphasizing the lips with rich pink lipstick.
