BOLD LIP
While a bold lip has always been in vogue, we are seeing more brides requesting this wedding-day lip. When paired with natural, luminous makeup, it creates a dramatic modern look.

Of course, we can’t talk about the au naturel makeup wedding look without mentioning Megan Markle. While Megan Markle didn’t rock a bold lip for her wedding to Prince Harry, she certainly had a luminous, natural look to her makeup. If you feel that a bold, bright lip, may not be fully appropriate for your wedding ceremony, you can choose a more subtle shade first for the ceremony, and then liven up your reception look with your statement bold lip.

LUMINOUS SKIN, AU NATUREL with STATEMENT HAIR or DRESS
Daniel Martin, Megan’s makeup artist has revealed how he created her much sought-after glow. Speaking on the Lorraine show, he said: “What I particularly did was mix a bit of the luminiser with foundation so it integrated the glow.”
“Natural makeup is definitely a new trend to follow for next year and by natural I mean just beautiful luminous skin with a beautiful eyebrow and maybe a soft wash of sheen or brown on the eyes. No mascara and focusing more on a statement hairstyle or a dress”, says Kristin Brett, a successful editorial makeup artist who also runs Brides by Kristin Brett.
Another trend she’s noticed brides gravitating towards is “natural, pink fresh rosy cheeks” to create a “fresh glow”. “Think fresh face, clean makeup and natural pink fresh rosy cheeks but not too much shimmering illuminator… enhancing their features but still looking natural.”

BRUSHED-THROUGH BROWS
Ever looked back on photos and wondered why on earth you thought it was a good idea to over-pluck your eyebrows? Guilty. It was a fairly frightening look. Thankfully, full, brushed-through brows are the new wedding makeup trend.
“Good brows are so important. They frame your face, accentuate your eyes and show emotion. Full, brushed-through brows are flattering, sophisticated and more youthful-looking on everyone”, says Karina.
“Natural brows with just a swipe of tinted brow gel to groom and give volume is a very popular bridal makeup trend at the moment”, says Niki.
