Wedding Makeup Looks That Are Sure To WOW!

Modern Wedding Posted: February 6, 2020

Picking the glamorous look you want for your wedding day can be a tricky one! Are you wanting a bold lip? A bright eye? Or maybe the ultimate bronzed babe look? No matter what style you are planning to channel, these wedding makeup looks are sure to WOW!

The Fox Eye…

Already becoming a huge favourite in the makeup world is the fox eye wing look for its ultimate “facelift without the facelift” illusion. Embracing a straighter eyebrow shape and lifted or winged eye makeup look creates the effect of strong cheekbones and an elongated, dramatic eye shape. It can be a bigger commitment that might need a few test runs, but when done right, any bride would look seriously stunning. This is a trend sure to go far.

Think Tint…

Rather than a heavy lipstick that wears off and risks smudging, we’re seeing more makeup looks incorporating a lip stain or tint because they won’t budge all day. Natural makeup for brides will never go out of fashion and gorgeous tints like this rich plum pair perfectly with a nude coloured look. Bring that extra sparkle to an effortless glam with accessories like a regal headband or gold statement earrings.

Total Euphoria…

Who doesn’t want to sparkle all over! Euphoria makeup has taken over the makeup world since the US television series of the same name went to air. The disco-esque, colourful and glitzy look means there are so many endless options to explore. From pops of bright colours, gold leaf or rhinestones, taking a subtle twist on this huge trend is sure to bring the wow factor!

Rose-Tinted Romance…

Soft pink tones on the cheeks and eyelids have the most feminine and romantic vibe for any bride wanting subtle warmth in their makeup look. Bring this timeless look into 2020 with all-over blush tones, a touch of shimmer and a glossy lip – perfect for a summer luxe look.

Cool It Down…

Taking a twist on the pinks that usually rule the world of bridal makeup, cooler-toned whites and blues have stepped up in popularity for their unique charm. This incredible double-lined white look with wispy lashes is seriously cool. Imagine a winter wonderland wedding with a touch of silver glitter and white liner or a regal celebration with jewel-toned blue shadow. Obsessed!

Back To The ’90s…

It might be a new decade but the makeup looks we’re seeing bursting onto the scene are seriously 90’s inspired. Structured brows are reappearing with glossy lips and dark liner on the lid and waterline for that full dramatic effect.

Do Dewy…

It was on-trend last year, and it’s not going anywhere soon! Dewy skin is here to stay. These glowing looks use products like wet-look serums and highlighters and leave out the powder for that pure radiant finish. To modernise the look, add in a wet-look eyeshadow and sleek hair for a showstopping bridal look all day!

Pop Of Peach…

Pops of colour are everywhere in current wedding styling, so why not add it to your makeup look too! Take a new approach to the classic red lip with a brighter coral or peach coloured lip. Complete this stunning look with a bronzed face and beachy waves for that summer glow. A flirty and fun palette but so sophisticated all at the same time.

Fully Lined…

For a bold bride that wants to skip on colour, take your eyeliner to the next level by adding sharp wings to the outer and inner corners of the eye. This creates a gorgeous shape to the eye and accentuates the cheek structure of the face. The dark outline has a huge impact but tied together with soft nude tones and natural skin, has an incredibly sleek and modern finish. Super simple but oh-so effective!
