The ultimate bridal look is the one that showcases your best assets. Bring the focus to your God-given gorgeousness by cleverly highlighting your fave features and accenting your naturally bestowed beauty.

 

Spotlight on: whispies+ texture

“Creating a soft ethereal look is much easier to achieve if you embrace your natural texture,” reveals hair master Kevin Murphy. “Allow the finer pieces around your hairline to fall softly around your features, it keeps the overall style more relaxed and romantic.”

Rise& shine: fresh freckles

“Freckles are trending right now as they breathe new life into the ever-popular ‘no-makeup’ makeup trend,” says Jane Patterson of DMK Australia. “Naturally healthy, glowing skin is the ultimate in bridal beauty.” If you have freckles, opt for minimal foundation to let them shine.

Rock your: short hair don’t care

 

If you’re blessed with locks that look amazing cropped, embrace them! “Invest in key styling tools and products like salt spray, light styling gel and good quality hairspray,” says hair guru Sharon Blain. Opt for a fresh bridal ‘do that showcases your effortless shorter style like a tousled bob à la Lara Bingle or JLaw.

Best ever…brow love

 

Brows come in all shapes and sizes. “There is no universally correct brow shape, everyone’s faces are different,” explains Hannah Terrett, National Brow Artist for Benefit Cosmetics. “Work within the brow framework you already have, determine the best shape for you and stick to it.”
