Bridal makeup looks to try for your big day!

Planning for your wedding day is no small feat, as it is a grand celebration of tradition, culture, and personal style that remains with you forever. From the bride’s wedding lehenga to the choice of accessories and more, the most defining element starts with the bridal makeup look. If your makeup remains on point, sharp, and charming, it instantly uplifts the whole look of your ensemble and honours a timeless beauty moment. So, whether you want a soft glam touch or a bold statement look, this short guide will walk you through the top 5 trending makeup looks for Indian brides that every bride must consider before walking down the aisle.


2/6

Pink monochrome is your way to go!

Anushka Sharma’s pastel pink bridal look inspired thousands of Indian brides to follow the same colour combinations and opened the doors to pastel shades in the wedding market. The diva also channelled a subtle pink monochrome touch, where she kept things natural and worked it out with her undertone. You can also combine a pink highlighter glow with soft mauve-pink lip colour and try a pink and silver eyeshadow palette with beautiful eyeliner ends, which will look perfect with your outfit and wedding theme.

The traditional golden kohl look

In Indian weddings, the combination of gold and red is evergreen and carries a significance of its own. Brides still prefer carrying a sleek golden-eyed look with a dark kohl touch, winged eyeliner, and stunning highlighter cheeks, making everything look grand and iconic. A subtle waterproof gold eyeshadow with glittering ends, fluttery lashes, and red lips will surely make you stand out from the crowd and look royal with red bridal lehengas.

Shine and sparkle in silver

Many brides keep silver notes high with their wedding reception outfits, but now this trend has shifted, and women are opting for a hint of silver sparkle with their wedding day ensemble. You can go for an all-glamorous dewy base with glittery dust, shimmery eyes, and nude lips, which deserves to be the highlight of the event. This luminous look should be topped off with a striking gloss touch, where you can highlight your contoured cheekbones and carry a magical bridal look.

Yes, minimalist makeup is very much in trend!

If you’re a fan of Alia Bhatt, then seek inspiration from her wedding day look, where the diva kept things minimal and natural but still looked flawless and super iconic. The minimal-makeup look might hold an understated charm, but surprisingly, it looks smooth and subtle. You can top it up with contrasting or monochrome lip colours, where a red matte lip or an iconic nude brown will do justice.

Smokey kajal with a soft glam finish

This tried and tested look can be seen on nearly every bride's moodboard, and it surely provides the best of both worlds. The classy smoky kohl look with a subtle smudged end and brown liner combo is ruling makeup aesthetics. It gives you a daring Indian note, and next, you can keep a sharp highlighter touch, contoured jawline, and beautiful, soft lips, combining daring eyes with a soft-lips touch.
