Your Kent Wedding - March/April 2023 (Issue 107)

Q&A aFndabsheaiounty Look and feel your big-day best with help from the professionals MATTE VS. METALLIC I tend to wear matte make-up products day-to-day, so I’m not sure whether to switch it up and use metallics for my wedding. Which is the best way to go with bridal makeup or do both have their merits? Emma says: It really comes down to what you prefer. Matte make-up can suit anyone, it offers a more natural look. However, metallics can give a bold or subtle shimmer depending on how daring you want to be! When it comes to choosing a make-up look for your wedding day, it’s important to remember that you want to look and feel wonderful. Whether choosing something you feel comfortable with or something a bit different, your make-up artist can try this with you. So, always remember to book a trial. DARE TO BARE What’s hot in the world of bridal fashion at the moment? Fran says: The classic off-the-shoulder look is trending this year, which is a look that allows brides to be both timeless and trendy. Whatever your size or shape, this silhouette can be flattering and will enhance most styles from fit and flare, to A-line, and is available in a multitude of fabrics. What all of this means, is that you can easily perfect your dream look! The Brichington Brides team are looking forward to the London Bridal Show this March, where we expect to see an array of flowers, floral print and big bows on the catwalk, which appear to be the next trends for 2024.
