Weddings Belle
Bridal makeup made clear by expert Kam Dhillon
Getting your make-up colours right is just as important as the colour and the style of your wedding dress. Before selecting your make-up for the big day, it is key to know what skin undertone you fall into: this could be either ‘warm’ or ‘cool’. Choosing the correct make-up colours will allow you to have a radiant glow, enhancing and accentuating your facial features. Incorrect make-up colours will drain your complexion. Whether you are a fair, medium or dark bride, your skin undertone will be different – for example, two brides who are fair will not necessarily both share cool undertone characteristics.
Style Secrets for the perfect bride
Kam Dhillon finds the ideal dress to match any figure
If you’re getting married, congratulations on your wedding proposal! But finding the perfect dress can be an emotional experience. It is one of the most important purchases of clothing in your life and you are only likely to wear it once. When you walk down the aisle, the dress will be a lasting memory for your groom and guests.
Before you start the shopping process for the right wedding dress and accessories, you need to determine your body proportions, body lines and scale. If chosen carefully this will flatter your body shape and style preference and will assist with the type of dress silhouette, train lines, sleeves, weight and variety of fabric.
Match of the Day
Finding the right shade to match your partner’s outfit is one thing, but to really fit, you need to take the colour of your skin into account . . .
Up until now you probably thought shopping for your bridal outfit would be dictated by personal tastes; you’ve got a favourite colour and cut in mind – and you want it. But just as your beautician will take the shape of your face into account when styling hair, it only makes sense to look at your complexion when selecting the right colour.
