CLASSIC BEAUTY

Think Scarlet Johannson and her signature look, with dark red lips. Imagine yourself as a classic beauty that relies on a few classic staples to create an unforgettable look. For a picture-perfect look that will not be forgotten anytime soon, consult with your makeup artist to find a colour palette that suits your outfit and skin tone. South Asian weddings usually involve some element of colour, especially red so picking a red lip stain should be relatively easy.

The essentials

Red lips: You can choose from vintage deep red tones to bright cherry red depending on your skin tone.  

Simple Liner: Complement your eyes by using a simple liner that adds a touch of mystique to your eyes without overwhelming your overall look.

Blush: From peach to rosy tones, you can use a wide range of colours to complete your look. Remember that with red lips, you don’t want the rest of your makeup to be as powerful and are looking for a demure, classic look.

FUNKY CHIC

Far from conventional, show your funky sense of style at your wedding. A youthful, fresh appearance can be had with a clear idea on what is involved in this look.

The essentials

Pink lips: Pout with pride with lips that are stained with a young, pinky look. Add a touch of shimmer and shine to your lips by using lots of gloss. This look works especially well at a summer wedding.

Bright eyes: Play up your eyes with bright eye shadow and less liner. Fake lashes are key to give you that ultra-glam look.  

The key here is to use different elements on your face together to give an overall ultra-glam funky look. Overplay any one feature and the result could be disastrous! 

SEXY DIVA

Feeling sexy? Then express yourself with a sultry look that leaves no question about your state of mind. Go all the way with sexy eye makeup that oozes sensuality and style.

The essentials

Smoky eyes: everyone’s tried out the smoky eyed look for a night on the town but a wedding can adopt this look with just as ease. For your wedding reception, bring out the fashionista in you with bold, dramatic eyes. Smouldering eye makeup in greys, black and silvers are perfect for this look.  

Nude lips: When you’re playing up your eyes, keep your lips nude. Think shades that highlight your natural lip colour for a sizzling sultry look.  

Bronzer: Get that sun-kissed, returned from the French Riviera look by using bronzer to complete your entire look. Shimmering bronze looks great on South Asian skin tones without much effort to blend and smudge.

PRINCESS PRETTY

If your wedding is playing out to your fairy tale, then why not be the princess on your wedding day?

The essentials

Romantic pale pink lips: Floral colours are a great way to find inspiration for a soft, romantic look. Simple and understated, stain your lips with a soft pink that is natural and elegant.

Light shadow: Again, use light colours to play up your eyes to bring out your entire ensemble. Play down the drama and emphasise a soft, glowing look by using shadows that illuminate your face.

Rosy cheeks: Healthy, rosy cheeks are the key to this look. Use a beautiful soft pink to create a look of the quintessential blushing bride.
