Cool, Chic Makeup Styles For Brides with Short Hair

I love short hair for brides because it’s so trendy and flirty! Brides with short hair can try the featured makeup looks to flaunt their bold look with style. But to pull off the look – and avoid looking too plain or masculine – you do need to have a makeup application that flatters. A lot of brides feel a little tomboyish with shorter hair. But wedding makeup that looks too obvious when you have less hair is a killer.

Short hair gives a clear view of your face especially cheeks, forehead and eyes. So, your bridal makeup should highlight your face.

Getting the right look can be tricky. If it’s too glamorous, it just competes with your bridal gown. If it’s too natural, it will not photograph as well. What is a bride to do? For direction, think of the shape of your haircut in the same way you would the silhouette of your bridal gown and your jewelry. It’s an equilibrium that can be achieved with a tweaked approach to your personal beauty style.

When you have less hair, your complexion is more exposed. Because of that, a great skincare routine is essential. Make sure your bridal makeup evens out skin so you have a matte finish. Buff and blend! Too shiny doesn’t work for photos.

At the moment, disheveled and messy look is making waves. Pair your tousled waves with sexy, bedroom eyes by applying a sultry, smoky shadow.

Rocking a set of lush, lengthy lashes is the easiest way to amp up your bridal look. Along with short hair, false lashes are one of the big bridal makeup trends this season. If you want fuller, yet natural looking lashes then I recommend using individual extensions instead of a strip.
