Every bride dreams of looking unforgettable on their wedding day. While the dress, accessories and hairstyle are crucial elements, makeup plays a pivotal role in enhancing a bride’s beauty and modern femininity. One timeless and bold makeup choice that can elevate a bridal look is red lips.
TIMELESS ELEGANCE
Red lips have been a symbol of classic beauty and allure for decades. This bold and timeless choice exudes confidence and sophistication. On your wedding day, red lips can be a striking addition that will leave a lasting impression.
CONFIDENCE
Wearing red lipstick can boost your confidence and make you feel powerful. A confident bride is a beautiful bride. When you feel truly self assured, it shines through. Red lips can give you that extra confidence you need to walk down the aisle with grace.
SKIN TONE
One of the most remarkable aspects of red lipstick is that it complements a wide range of skin tones. Whether you have fair, medium, or deep skin, there’s a shade of red that can make you look radiant and captivating. If a red lip is the look for you and your wedding, we can experiment at your makeup trial to find the perfect shade for your complexion. Cooler skin tones tend to look best in blue toned reds such as Ruby Woo by MAC Cosmetics. Warmer, more olive skin tones look phenomenal in orange based reds such as Lady Danger by MAC Cosmetics, Tell Laura by Charlotte Tilbury or Wild Ginger by Tom Ford.
STATEMENT OF PERSONALITY
Your wedding day is all about celebrating you and your partner’s unique personalities and love story. Red lips can be a bold statement of your personality, adding a touch of glamour to your bridal look.
CAPTIVATING IN PHOTOGRAPHS
Photographs are a timeless reminder of your special day. Red lips can make your smile pop in pictures, making your bridal photos even more subliminal. It adds a touch of drama that can enhance your overall look, especially in black and white photos.
LONG LASTING WEAR
Red lipsticks combined with red lip pencil have excellent staying power, ensuring that your lips look perfect throughout your entire celebration. I’d recommend a matte texture for a long lasting wear however, glossy red lips can look very chic with the right aesthetic.
NEUTRAL MAKEUP
To make your red lips the focal point of your bridal look, keep the rest of your makeup neutral. Soft matte shadows and a subtle blush can provide the perfect balance.
A TRIAL APPOINTMENT IS ESSENTIAL
Before your big day, it’s crucial to have your makeup trial appointment with me. This allows you to try different shades of red and ensure you’re comfortable with your choice. A trial run is the best way to guarantee your bridal beauty vision is realised. Embrace the power of red lips, and you’ll be a bride to remember for years to come.
