It’s never too early to start planning your bridal beauty. Regardless if you’re planning an intimate elopement or a lavish celebration, looking flawless is always a good idea.  Here’s a timeless and universal bridal look we designed for our model Kelsey, that incorporate some of this season’s top beauty trends.

Contour and Cheeks:

When it comes to contouring, we’ve been seeing a softer more natural contour and an emphasis on a bolder blush. Depending on your complexion and preferred colour palette, we’re seeing blush tones ranging of neutral chocolate-latte tones, to pastel pink and corals, to bold and deep chocolate cherry shades. On our model, we contoured with Benefit Cosmetics Hoola Bronzer and dusted her cheeks with Benefit Cosmetics Wanderful World Silk-Soft Blush in Sunny. To highlight we used the Make Up For Ever Artist Longwear Skin-fusing Powder Highlight in Champagne Gold (H110)

Eyes:

Eye makeup is simple and subtle, but still pretty and special. We’re seeing effortless neutral tones like champagne, bronze and gold eye shadows and on Kelsey, we applied Marcelle Long-wear Eyeshadow Pencil in Galactic Copper on her eye lids. We then lightly contoured her crease with MAC Eyeshadow in Soft Brown and defined her eyes using the Ardell Naked strip lashes.

Lips:

For the lip colours, we’re seeing various shades of pinks, toffee-browns, and shimmery glosses. On Kelsey, we leaned into the neutral toffee tones to complement her cheek colour.  Here we used Charlotte Tilbury Lipstick in Pillow Talk with Stila Stay All Day Shimmer Liquid Lipstick in Carina.
