Wedding Day Beauty Tips For a Natural Glow

As couples embrace more authentic wedding styles, brides are following suit with fresh-faced makeup that enhances their natural features. Taking cues from celebrity brides like Sofia Richie and Vanessa Hudgens, brides are opting for barely there makeup over the heavily contoured looks that once defined wedding day beauty.

“You don’t want your makeup to look dated in your wedding photos,” said Lisa Eldridge, London-based celebrity makeup artist and founder of Lisa Eldridge Beauty. “When I see photos of someone like Grace Kelly on her wedding day, I think it could have been yesterday.”

Five celebrity makeup artists share some of their go-to makeup products and tips to help you achieve the perfect glow on your wedding day.

“Your wedding day look should be whatever makes you feel the most beautiful,” Ms. Eldridge said. “Also keep in mind that less is more when it comes to makeup application, especially when dealing with perceived problem areas, such as blemishes or patches of redness. Use light, targeted application on the areas with minimal product to keep your makeup looking as natural as possible.”

“This medium-coverage foundation is clinically proven to last for a minimum of 12 hours and photographs beautifully. These types of formulations can sometimes be a little more drying to last all day, so you may need to compensate by adding more moisturizer beforehand and using less setting powder than normal.”
