Summer weddings are all about enjoying the outdoors while saying “I do” on a delightful day! Fresh, crisp and sun-kissed; many brides love the shine & silhouettes in their wedding pictures when Mr. Sun itself is their make-up dresser!
Bridal makeup for summer weddings needs to be glamorous. It’s all about using water-resistant and sweat-proof products and going light on the base and using smudge-resistant techniques all over. Here are 5 bridal looks that will look perfect on a summer bride!
The Summer Glam

Dark smokey eyes with heavy gold and bronze undertones can instantly uplift your face. Everyone looks better with a little bronzer, especially in the summer. For a natural look, apply bronzer on the high points of your face where the sun would hit: your cheekbones, chin, nose, and across your forehead.
The Classic Look

A classic makeup look is a perfect option for your big day, as it will be elegant, timeless, and won’t go out of style. In achieving this look, go for simple eye makeup with velvety browns, and depending on your eye shape, a clean-cut eyeliner. To soften the look further, try a dark brown eyeliner rather than black, teamed with rosy pink lipstick. Don’t overdo it on the bronzer either – keep your natural features enhanced and not masked for a classic, all-day glamour.
Keep It Natural

The natural tones of this summer bride look exquisite. All you have to do is choose a natural-looking foundation, preferably matte instead of a luminous and oil-based one. Also, wearing multiple layers is a big no-no. Make sure it matches your skin tone for that natural feel. Give it a swipe of nude lipstick for a subtle glamor. As for liners, the liquid liner stays put like no pencil can. If you want to enhance the subtle look, go for smokey eyes that will give the required contrast for the look.
Blush Tones

We love blushing brides! Something about the summer resonates quite well with the pink hues and looks gorgeous on summer brides. Create the lightest makeup base and avoid products that will make your skin oily. You can apply them to your lips, cheeks, and even a bit to the eyes for a pretty monochrome look. There are many forms of blush such as liquid, and cream, but we recommend you go with the powder one.
