Chic bridal looks for you!

Ostentatious oriental
The Oriental look adds an element of exotica and is perfect to adorn for cocktail parties. It includes lot of colours and requires you to pay special attention to hair to get the look right.

Makeup
• First take the concealer followed by a pancake and translucent powder. Match it to the skin colour for natural finish or go for one shade fairer uplifting the tone.
• Clean the brow and add a light and bright shimmering colour eye shadow.
• Apply the eyeliner with wing effect from top to bottom.
• Add kohl in the lower eye lid along with mascara on the eyelashes for better definition. Apply blush on temples and cheek bones and end the look with a lip liner for defined lips along with a lipstick of long lasting colour and gloss.

Hairdo
Divide hair in two parts E2E (ear to ear) in the front section and the back section. Create pony tail between the back section of the parting and above the ear, keeping a semi-circular effect.
• Push all the hair below ear towards one side creating one sided pony clipping it with pins and not rubber band.
• The section from forehead to E2E, create a side parting or whichever one prefers making a side swap.
• Back comb the hair that is in the ponytail and which is clipped to enhance the hairstyle.
• Add flowers and straws for the Oriental effect.

Chic out of the bed look
For this sultry appeal, keep the hair dramatic and large and makeup nude and subtle.

Makeup
• Apply the foundation, translucent powder and concealer (if required).
• Add the blush on cheeks and use light peach and pink as eye shadow.
• Use kohl as definer to the lower eye lid and light mascara for effect.
• Apply gloss on lips for sheer effect.

Hairdo
• Divide hair in two parts, forehead to E2E and E2E to occipital bone
• Defuse dry the back section of hair with a diffuser and once done back comb lightly for height and better formation of the style.
• In the front section, defuse dry towards the ears and in the centre, blow-dry straight to create evenness to the face.

The 70’s show
Popularised by Deepika Padukone in Om Shanti Om, this look has the softness yet the glam appeal to lighten up your special day.

Makeup
• Apply the concealer, pancake and translucent powder in same order.
• Clean the brows, apply any matte coloured eye-shadow matching the dress. Apply shimmer eyeliner double the size of the black liner.
• The black eye liner should be applied with the winged effect and mascara. This look is a no kohl look; instead use highlighter of brown colour.

• Lastly, use dark and bright colour lipstick for prominence.

Hairdo
• Divide hair in two parts, forehead to E2E and E2E to occipital bone.
• Further divide the E2E to occipital bone section in two halves top and bottom.
