Antitrends in the Image of the Bride

If you have not yet decid­ed on your wed­ding image of the bride, then read this arti­cle. Chan­fash­ion put togeth­er a list of anti-trends and tips on how to do the actu­al wed­ding make­up and hair­style.

Disclaimer

We just cov­er the lat­est fash­ion trends in bridal make­up and styling. Always be guid­ed by your taste and desires, even if they do not agree with the instruc­tions of the styl­ists.

doll face

The effect of a mat­te mask on the face, obtained thanks to a dense lay­er of foun­da­tion and pow­der, is time to leave in the past. Such make­up makes the face flat, looks com­plete­ly unnat­ur­al, and in a cou­ple of hours the sit­u­a­tion will only wors­en, believe me.

It is much bet­ter to use lighter means in the bride’s make­up to even out the tone of the face, but leave the real skin tex­ture in sight. A lit­tle high­lighter and blush will empha­size the real radi­ance of your hap­py face, and will not hide it behind a mask 🙂

Bust varnish

Of course, I want the laid curls to be fixed tight­ly and please you as long as pos­si­ble. But believe me: sticky, “con­crete” hair will obvi­ous­ly not look advan­ta­geous in your wed­ding look. Luck­i­ly, a skilled styl­ist with a good arse­nal of hair prod­ucts can cre­ate a long-last­ing bridal hair­style with­out this unfor­tu­nate side effect.

Togeth­er with the hair styl­ist, make sure that despite the styling prod­ucts, the hair does not stick togeth­er into untidy ici­cles.

Multi-story hairstyles

Com­plex, mul­ti-lev­el and var­nished wed­ding hair­styles are no longer rel­e­vant. Brides are increas­ing­ly choos­ing sim­plic­i­ty and nat­u­ral­ness, so as not to wor­ry all evening about the safe­ty of the mas­ter­piece on their heads. When choos­ing a wed­ding hair­style, pay atten­tion to sim­pler and more ele­gant options: neat buns, del­i­cate curls, braids or brush­es.

Active contouring

Very bright face con­tour­ing is use­ful only for styl­ized pho­to shoots, where the cam­era “eats” the shad­ows from the face. In life, such make­up looks unnat­ur­al and rather graph­ic, and it is not quite suit­able for the wed­ding image of the bride.

It is not nec­es­sary to com­plete­ly aban­don con­tour­ing — just make sure that the lines are not too bright and clear and do not change facial fea­tures too much.

Extended nails with voluminous design

Extreme­ly long nails don’t go well with the bride’s nat­ur­al look. In addi­tion, such a man­i­cure clear­ly can­not be called con­ve­nient, espe­cial­ly if the design uses a large num­ber of volu­mi­nous rhine­stones and oth­er dec­o­ra­tive ele­ments. Why steal atten­tion from your engage­ment ring? 🙂

Now in wed­ding trends, a man­i­cure of a small length with a min­i­mum of volu­mi­nous jew­el­ry. But in flow­ers you can not lim­it your­self! Nude shades are safe clas­sic wed­ding man­i­cures, but you don’t have to lim­it your­self to them.

Rejection of naturalness

Lush false eye­lash­es, arti­fi­cial curls, hair­pieces — it’s time to put all these ways of “improv­ing” into a dis­tant draw­er, espe­cial­ly when cre­at­ing a bride’s wed­ding look. The fash­ion world comes to the con­clu­sion that there is noth­ing bet­ter than nat­ur­al beau­ty, so let’s enjoy what nature has award­ed 🙂

Graphic eyebrows

Per­fect­ly shaped eye­brows with slicked and paint­ed hairs are grad­u­al­ly becom­ing a thing of the past, giv­ing way to the trend for more nat­ur­al look­ing eye­brows. There­fore, if you were think­ing about try­ing tat­too­ing or microb­lad­ing, then we advise you not to run after the out­go­ing trend. Much more rel­e­vant in wed­ding make­up look nat­ur­al eye­brows, laid with gel.

Massive decorations

In no case do we dis­suade you from wear­ing a crown on such a day if you want to feel like a real princess 🙂 But pay atten­tion: the mar­ket for wed­ding acces­sories is now filled with more min­i­mal­is­tic and ele­gant styles. They can become the high­light of the image, while huge weighty crowns will draw all the atten­tion away from your face.

Also, do not for­get about com­fort: wear­ing such a weighty thing on your head all day is not such an easy mis­sion.
