Everything’s certain, and even the gown has been found. What’s missing… the perfect make-up and hair styling.
The most critical step towards the perfect bridal look has been made: the gown is certain. As a next step, make-up and hair need to be coordinated. In general, the same applies for the outfit: stay true to yourself and highlight your personal qualities. To avoid any time pressure and styling mishaps it is useful to try the desired make-up and hair style matching your gown a few weeks before the big day. This provides enough time to possibly make some changes. Because one thing is for sure: you’d never be photographed so many times again like on your wedding day.
Hair
The perfect bridal hairstyle depends on dress and type. Today’s trend: it shouldn’t look too artificial or conservative. Key word: corkscrew curls! Casual “undone” waves are beautiful as well as braided hair styles and loosely pinned-up variations. Indispensable accessory for bridal hairstyles: noble hair ornaments in all varieties. Everything is possible from delicate flower brooches and hairbands made of filigree chains to tiaras with pearls and strass decorated hair combs. If you opt for a veil, please make sure that the fine fabric does not ruin your hairdo. Following a few inspirations:

Make-up
Less is more! Don’t dug too deep into the paint pot, please. It should look natural rather than exaggerated. An essential detail for bridal make-up is an even, radiant complexion. Therefore, a preceding appointment at the beautician is recommended. Apart from that, soft eye-shadows like mauve and soft pink, some rouge powder and mascara should be considered. Individual highlights on the upper cheekbone and the inner eye angle look beautiful. The lips can shine brighter. And don’t forget your nails! Perfectly cared hands and feet are a must.
