Here’s what bridal make-up artists want you to know ahead of your big day

How different can bridal make-up be? You’re not alone, if the question has ever crossed your mind. Modern brides are rejecting the idea of looking ‘too done’ or unrecognisable, and it shows in the rising preference for natural glam on one’s big day. The biggest weddings—aka celebrity ones—are leading the charge on this front; no matter the glam team at their disposal, stars like Joey King, Anya Taylor-Joy and Lana Condor who have all had their weddings in recent years have been leaning towards bridal beauty that feels fresh and youthful, or a mere ‘elevation’ of their day-to-day looks.

And for that to happen (besides having a very right partner by your side of course), certain pieces must fall into place. We’ll even go as far as to say that your glam is as important as the dress. “One big misconception is that natural make-up is easy.

In reality it takes precision and great technique to make it look effortless and still be long-lasting,” offers professional make-up artist and co-founder of Arly, Airin Lee. There’s also the difference in perspective. “What is natural for you could be considered glam for us make-up artists.

So having a mood board, photos or any type of visual gives us a better understanding of what you’re looking for,” adds make-up artist Noriana Nazuir. So the formula to bridal glam isn’t as easy as it looks, that much we’ve come to know. Breaking down the formula for us here are three bridal make-up artists: namely Lee, Nazuir and Thai make-up expert Patricia Jaihan.

From typical concerns of brides-to-be, to preparing for trial make-up runs as well as how to accommodate for outfit changes throughout, here is everything the face experts want you to know ahead of your big day.
