One of the secrets of making your wedding makeup look amazing both in person and in photographs is to light up your skin and make it glow from within. One of the best ways to achieve that is to use the strobing technique, which requires you to use plenty of highlighter and a good foundation.

Even if you prefer understated and elegant makeup looks, there is no reason not to add a pop of colour to your bridal makeup. When done right, pearly blue eyeshadow can make your makeup fresh, youthful, and super easy to combine with any lip colour.

If you consider your lips to be your best feature and want to put maximum focus on them with your makeup look, you will definitely need a high-quality lipstick in your favourite colour. It’s best to go for a matte lipstick or lip stain, so that it stays on your lips all day with minimal touch-ups.

If it wasn’t for the stunning eyelash extensions, this natural makeup look would look like the best choice for everyday makeup, but the extensions take it to the next level. If you prefer your makeup to look minimal on a daily basis, this is how you can elevate it for your big day.

Dewy and glowing skin is 50% of the success of your wedding makeup look, but both the eyes and the lips in this makeup job look equally stunning! We love the bold red lip, and if you want to recreate the same glossy look, make sure to line your lips with a lip pencil to prevent streaking.
