Brides with Pearls, crystals and gemstones

Fantasy makeup is all the rage, and it’s thanks to the catwalks that accessories like pearls, crystals or gemstones have appeared on wedding makeup looks.

These are pearl or diamante transparent stickers that simulate sparkle. A very simple way to achieve a fantasy makeup look on the most important day of your life.

Coloured eyeliner

Did you think that nothing could outdo black eyeliner? Well, you’re wrong. Because coloured eyeliner has arrived and it is already trending more than black eyeliner.

Whether it is drawn on the upper eyelashes, thickens the central part of the eye, a more artistic design with different aspects, dots of colour, lower liner or on the water line, coloured eyeliner has appeared in the wedding world and it is here to stay.

Glass Skin effect

Wedding makeup trends for 2023 have moved towards natural looks, especially with respect to the coverage of the skin, with viral trends like dolphin skin (luminous and with a glowy finish) or glass skin (crystal skin), which is why many makeup artists are betting on this for upcoming wedding looks. 

And yes, we can confirm that it is the best option for a hyper-natural skin effect. Next year, brides will have luminous, natural, glowing and healthy skin, with much subtler contouring.

Tint trend for brides

The trend that goes by the name TINT puts the focus on blush. A trend reminiscent of Korean influence with the gesture of applying the blush under the eyes to give a sweeter, youthful image.  

The key is in elevating the look with red, maroon, cranberry and plum tones applied on the lips, cheeks and under the eyes. We love it!

Bright, holographic and metallic eye shadows

A huge trend this year will be new eyeshadows. After a while without showing signs of life, glitter and metallics come to brighten your look. A way to add a touch of colour and flash! 

Silvers, bronzes, coppers and whatever colour that shines, applied like any other eyeshadow but extravagantly. Accompanied by highlighter on the cheeks, this would make the best combination.

Cherry, brown and rose lips

Another option that will triumph for lip colours will be cherry tones. In 2023, bolder brides can make their lips stand out with these loud tones, which will give a more sophisticated touch.

The trick is to use a creamy formula with a velvet-like effect.

Eyelashes, always centre stage

This year we will continue to give centre stage to the eyelashes, which will be full of volume and length. Eyelash extensions or false lashes stuck down lash by lash will be your friends, along with mascara that gives depth to the eye. 

With these techniques, you can change the shape of the eye and give it a lot more focus in a natural way. 

Glossy lips for daytime weddings

What better to give off a shine than a glossy lip? We have already seen this trend in past wedding seasons, but in 2023 the brides will have the most hydrated and glossy lip effects. With this trend, you can always add a touch of colour with a coral, magenta or pastel pink lipstick under the gloss.

Smokey-eye makeup for evening weddings

This makeup consists of a blend of colours that covers the upper and lower eyelid, combined with other colours that will be popular amongst brides of next year, above all the louder tones.

It is an astonishing effect for any look that also manages to give depth to the makeup. Imagine it along with long lashes!

Eyebrows… you can’t forget!

Yes, eyebrows have gained a lot of attention, and every year bushy and messy brows almost get more attention than the makeup look itself.

The eyebrow look will be achieved hair by hair, with a natural tone and will produce this rebellious effect that will be trending in 2023.

A second makeup look

If many brides have a second dress, why not have a second makeup look as well? Another trend in 2023 will be an extra touch of makeup for the party. 

And it is so easy to change the lip colour for something stronger and an eye shadow colour for the nighttime. All eyes will be on you!
