5 bridal face beats worth double tapping

accreditation

Something old, something new, something borrowed and perhaps the something blue is a beautiful glistening shade of eye-shadow?

Makeup artists and beauty vloggers are starting to break away from traditional beauty looks and are being more adventurous. With more and more gorgeous beauty tutorials and get the look features available on the web, it's no wonder that brides-to-be are looking for the best and most glamorous looks ever.

From pink eyelids to glowing cheeks, here are five looks you can try on your big day:

1. Cynthia Gwebu's soft pink glam look

This look is great because not only does it look like the sun is setting on your eyelids, but it makes your whole face light up in pictures. And you've got to love the lipstick that won't smudge all over your veil or groom's shirt.

2. Bold coloured lips

A lot of brides usually shy away from wearing bright coloured lipstick on their big day, but there's no need to be shy because you can definitely say "I do" with a red pout. The best way to do this is by making sure that the rest of your face isn't overdone. So if you're going for a red lip opt for a very neutral toned eye-shadow.

3. The classic romantic look

Who better to give you some wedding inspo than beauty blogger Aisha Baker-Parnell? In this video, Aisha teaches us how to achieve a natural, yet romantic look. She uses very hushed eye-shadow tones along with a baby pink blush, which she dusts lightly on the cheeks.

Another life hack for potential lipstick smudges? Aisha uses a lipliner to add colour to her lips by filling in her entire lip. You can use any lipliner colour of your choice.

4. The deluxe face beat

This is the most picture perfect makeup look complete with highlighting to make you glow from every angle. While the contouring defines the bone structure of your face, eyelash extensions will also add to the extravagance of your wedding do.

5. Gold eyes and jewels

This gorgeous Asian bridal beauty look has the sparkle in all the right places. The accessories framing the bride's face complement the touch of shimmer on her eyes so tastefully. A definite double tap from me.
