the modest bride

TIMELESS BEAUTY
Channel the dazzling brilliance and purity of pearls

Popular for the Nikkah, this authentic look is all about evoking the traditional bride and dates back centuries. The Kundan and green stone pieces work harmoniously with the ivory shades of the scarf, while adding to the luminous glow of the bride’s complexion. The main focus of this beauty look is the base. Pristine, it’s the backdrop for the rest of the look, which is minimal when compared to most bridal makeup. Just a gentle flush of peach on the cheeks topped with highlighter and paired with a soft pink lip brings together the wedding ready look. Heavily emphasised eyes, with touches of the same green on the stones of the Kundan ornaments pulls together the polished look.

REGAL ELEGANCE
Celebrate cultural heritage with majestic style

Red will forever be linked with Asian weddings, so use the hue as the theme shade for your traditional ceremony, adding gorgeouly elaborate jewellery for a sense of occasion. This look is all about being bold - from the strong lips to the perfect contouring and precision-lined eyeliner. Start with a clean base, using primer and foundation to form a blank canvas on which to create your masterpiece. Bronzer under cheeks creates structured cheekbones, while extending nude tones to the brow crease creates gentle depth. An iridescent gold on the lids complements the scarf, while the red lip, created with pencil and high pigment lipstick, helps unite the look to the bridal outfit and jewellery.

VIBRANT STYLE
Bold sophistication for a beauty look to cherish

Perfect for brides who want to channel ultra-feminine sophistication on their Big Day, a playful pink projects innocence and youth.
This Arabic-inspired look uses plenty of linear strokes of eyeliner to emphasise the beautiful shape of the eyes, while shades of gold, bronze and deep brown work together to form an elegant smokey finish. As with any makeup look, the base is an essential factor in creating a flawless look. The contouring, a speciality of the makeup artist Yasmin, enhances the natural delicate bone structure of the model to ensure the focus always remains on the face.
Finish with a dainty pink lip to balance the strong eyes.

MAJESTIC GLAMOUR
A timeless look that evokes sublime sophistication and style

For the more daring bride, a hijab style that cuts across the earlobe gives the perfect opportunity to display fabulous earrings and other ornaments.
Contouring also needs to be adjusted when the hijab sits so far back, while blush can be a little lighter to elongate the length of the cheekbones. When a bridal outfit is so exquisitely decorated, makeup should complement, rather than fight against it.
A fluid foundation gives a smooth finish while a fine dusting of translucent powder helps to set the makeup and ensures it stays in place throughout the ceremony.
