With the aim of emphasizing the natural lines of the face, contouring has turned to a light, vibrant addition to your facial makeup. The key is to master sculpting the cheekbones and facial features in a way that looks effortless and natural.

3 A bold contrast

Now, this look is for the bold brides who are fond of contrasts. It consists of two primary elements, the hairstyle, and eye makeup. To apply it, pair a statement cat-eye with a slicked-back hair. The eye makeup could be employed with various colors of eyeliners. It is a quite edgy look; However, keeping the rest of the makeup quite simple would break some of its boldness and emphasize its elegance.   

4 Subtly-waterline and eyelined eyes

Thin, sharp waterlined eyes form a stellar trend for this season. It could be a part of a breathtaking bridal look. The same sharp and subtle technique has been employed to outline the eyes. The latter gives a bolder look than waterlining. If you prefer to break the edginess a bit, go for unfinished eyelining; it’s also quite trendy. And for extra glamor, add a white eyeshadow, shimmery or matte, to the inner corners of your eyes; it would chase away any signs of tiredness from your eyes.
