With wedding season approaching and COVID-19 restrictions easing, many brides are excited to get their wedding planning back on track. As far as makeup goes, trends in beauty have changed a lot since the pandemic first hit. We’ve truly embraced a “no makeup” makeup look this year, and many of these trends can translate into the wedding space. Looking for some current trends that will step up your client’s look for their big day? Check out these four ideas below.
Natural-Looking Foundation or Skin Tints
Plump, hydrated skin is all the rage. What better way to achieve healthy looking skin than with a skin tint guaranteed to give a bride natural coverage, which Pinterest recently called this trend “skinimalism." Letting the skin’s natural texture shine through and showcasing freckles and moles is not only beautiful, but healthy too.
Blush
Rosy cheeks are the perfect addition to any summer or spring wedding look. This trend has grown in popularity over the past year, with many celebrities and beauty gurus adding rosy blushes to their everyday routines. It is the perfect trend to add more dimension to the face and give your bride a fun pop of pink.
Graphic Liner
Liquid eyeliner in multiple colors and shapes can elevate any bride’s look. Try a fun pop of color and a simple shape, or a neutral color and a more complex shape. There are endless possibilities for makeup artists to showcase their artistry on their brides when it comes to this trend.
Feathery Brows
Say goodbye to the overdrawn and overfilled-in brows of the past. Feathery brows have taken social media by storm and are perfect for a no-hassle summer wedding look. This trend can be achieved with a brow gel and combing the brows upwards, and finishing by filling in sparse spots with a brow pencil using light, hair-like strokes. Brow lamination has also been popular in achieving this look, and is a great service to add to your salon or spa.
