Wedding season is just around the corner, and that means it’s time to start your bridal prep.

You’ve got to look back at these photos and memories forever (no pressure) so we need to make sure that you a. feel comfortable, b. feel like yourself and c. feel beautiful.

Whether you fancy a classic dewy, skin tint moment with a nude lip or want to amp up the drama with a subtle smoky eye and a red lip, we’ve done some digging and found the best bridal makeup looks- that are going to help make your decision a whole lot easier.
