Bridal Hair And Makeup Trends For Summer
Brides in 2021 will be having an experience like no other, after the rollercoaster of the past 17 months. All the disruption to wedding plans has filtered down into the look and feel of the big day for many couples, whether they are opting for an outdoors reception, or a microwedding with a handful of close family and friends.
Some brides have embraced the low-key approach to hair and makeup adopted during lockdown, while others have gone firmly in the opposite direction, desperate to get all glammed up and looking ultra-polished once again! Here are a few of the key trends of the year so far.
No-makeup makeup
Women who previously ‘did their face’ religiously every morning to go to the office have embraced a more natural look. ‘Barely there’ makeup has been seen on the catwalks, with a focus on a fresh glowing complexion, fuller eyebrows, and soft peachy lips. Often, this look takes just as much skill as bolder makeup, as the art is to use subtle enhancements.
Statement eyes
Wearing a mask has made lipstick an impractical choice for many of us, which has led to an increased focus on the eyes. Smokey eyes, with strongly defined lower lash lines, charcoal greys and soft blues, and long dark lashes, have made a comeback.
Laid back hairstyles
For smaller and simpler weddings, brides have been opting for a textured low bun or pony tail as an alternative to the traditional up do. Teamed with decorative beads or flowers, this easy-going style can look super pretty for boho brides.
Vintage waves
For those who crave a little more glam, the traditional Hollywood aesthetic is also a big trend at the moment, including loose shiny waves which can easily be created with a heated curling wand.
