Real life brides' make-up looks!

If you're looking for bridal make-up inspiration, then look no further! We’ve chosen four of our favourite real life brides, to tell you how to recreate their make-up looks!

Natural look...

This classic look is all about enhancing your natural beauty and making sure you look beautiful, and importantly, making sure you still look like you on your big day. One of the best ways to boost your own beauty, is to ensure that your skin is at it’s best — so drink lots of water and follow a good skincare regime!

Recreate this gorgeous look with a good base, a sweep of sheer lipstick like Perfect Shine Sheer Lipstick in Melon by Clarins (£14.19), a subtle blend of blush – like Coralista by Benefit (£22.50) on the cheeks, and finish with highlighting your cheekbones and brow bones with a dab of Dewy Glow All Over Radiance Crème by Jemma Kidd (£16.64).

Gorgeous glow...

This stunning finish is all about getting an illuminated, almost sparkling appearance to your skin, but you'll need to pay attention to your other features to make sure your skin can really shine. Making sure your eyebrows are well-shaped and your skin is in good condition will really give the style some finesse!

Get your glow on by first priming your face and neck with Shu Uemura's UV Under Base Mousse Shimmer (£26), define eyes with eyeliner, and a good dose of Bobbi Brown’s Perfectly Defined mascara (£17). Finish with a nude, shimmery lip gloss, like Lancôme’s Lacque Fever in Overheated Beige (£17). Image of bride: ashworthphotography.co.uk

Chic creation...

We love this contemporary make-up style — it has a bit of passion and drama while still being a very cool bridal look! Beautiful, full lips are crucial to getting this make-up right, so use a good moisturising lip treatment before your big day to make sure they are as luscious as possible.

Give your eyes some oomph with L’Oreal Paris’ Extra-Volume Collagene Waterproof mascara (£9.99), and give them a bit of a glint with Bobbi Brown’s Long-wear Gel Eyeliner in graphite or chocolate shimmer ink (£15). Complete the chic look with those all important lips line them well, and fill with a non-sticky gloss, like Clinique’s new Vitamin C Lip Smoothie (£13.50). Image of bride: joannedunn.it

Hint of a rose...

To create this an elegant bridal make-up look, you need to just hint at the classic English rose style. Make sure you have a complexion that looks like porcelain by paying close attention to under-eye bags and spots with specialised treatments – and by getting plenty of sleep too!

Get complexion perfection with a base of Clinique’s Even Better Foundation SPF 15 (£19.50)    and  give your cheeks a very faint pink tint with a stroke of MAC’s Beauty Powder in Summer Rose (£14.68). Combat shine by priming your skin with a product like Dr Feelgood from Benefit — and ensure that matt finish all day long! Image of bride: alexandreweddings.com
