4-makeup-ideas-for-unconventional-brides-1

Maybe you've heard of the term "unconventional bride", referring to a bride who isn't afraid to choose something other than the traditional style for her wedding. Usually, the unconventional vibes will show through from the choice of wedding dress, venue, reception theme, to the color palette. If you consider yourself as one, it would be super fun to show it through your choice of bridal makeup!

If you're considering to play around with your makeup, remember that older family members and peers might find it too crazy, as it doesn't fit in to their conventional style. Don't be afraid to discuss your ideas with them and show them how they can be altered to be more subtle.

The traditional makeup look for brides usually consists of a flawless face, shimmery smokey eyes, and nude-pink lips. If you're looking to steer clear of these safe options, these hot beauty trends can be your references in being a beautiful unconventional bride, while still being perfectly wedding-friendly.

Korean Makeup

The Asian beauty wave has taken over the globe big time, starting from their extensive and unique skin care routine with items like sheet masks and emulsions. When it comes to its makeup look, Asian beauty often offers the look of youth. Think of a dewy face, rosy cheeks, ombre rosy lips, and big eyes.

To copy these looks, you can consider wearing a dewy foundation, or adding highlighters on more parts of your face. For eye makeup, smokey eyes are a no go. Light, shimmery shadows with just a thin line of liner is usually chosen, paired with flushed cheeks and lips. Cream blush and tints are not only suitable to achieve the Asian beauty look, but will also benefit you as they wear rather well throughout the day.

Korean eyebrows will be a good addition to this look. Different from the perfectly-arched brow style that is famous in the West, Korean eyebrows showcase more natural-looking, straight eyebrows with almost no tails. Discuss this with your makeup artist to see whether your facial features or your natural brow shape will suit this style.

Flawed Skin

Yup, you heard it right. These days, the beauty industry is embracing unique traits and diversity more than ever, including skin imperfections! More and more world-class designers have even sent their models makeup-free down the runway, along with messy, effortlessly-pretty hair. Cushion makeup, tinted primers, and CC creams are some of the newer beauty products that are catered to those wanting to achieve this type of look.

The key is to use less base makeup. Always start with a good amount of skin care so the texture of your skin will appear smooth and radiant. You can still go with a full-coverage foundation, but apply it with a damp sponge to sheer out the results; giving more of an even skin appearance without looking too perfect and mask-like. Ditch the buffing foundation brush that is usually chosen for a fuller coverage. Using less powder on your face, or just dabbing it strategically around the oiliest areas will also help to prevent your complexion from looking unnatural.

Bold Lips

Blue, green, or even grey lips are no strangers to today's beauty trends. We've seen them walking down the runway, strutting on the red carpet, and even going around at malls! Colorful, bold lips show off a great personality and also act as a statement; perfect for those who are not afraid of being different and standing out.

Remember, when you go crazy on one part of your face, you should take it easy on the rest. Pair your bold lips with neutral, even almost naked, eye makeup, and just a wash of bronzer around the perimeter of the face to bring warmth and color back to your complexion.

Blurred Lips

This trend is considered subtle, yet also edgy enough without being over-the-top. Blurred lips is a makeup look in which you emphasize the color on the center part of your lips, then blur the rest of the application towards the outer line of your lips.

This is best achieved using a deep color like burgundy, beet red, or deep coral. Make sure to blend the color outwards very well, to prevent your lips from looking too small or thin. A semi-matte type of lipstick might be the best choice, since it's easy to be moved around, yet still gives good pigmentation when sheered out.

As with any other trends out there, you might find that the trend that you like doesn't look that good on you. Doing trials, reading reviews, and having discussions with the experts are all important to do before you translate your unconventional preferences to your makeup look. Remember that once your makeup is done, you will see it forever in your wedding photos!
