Wedding season is almost here. It’s that time when brides are already blushing and glowing. From engagement to reception, brides go the extra mile to ensure everything is perfect, and why not?

It is, after all, the most special occasion of their life. Over the years, I have done makeup for many brides; some are giggly, some are shy, and some are jumping with joy. One thing that I always tell my students is that makeup that they do for the clients should not just complement their dress but their personality too. It should become a part of who they are so they can carry it confidently. From haldi to reception, every ritual is different and requires a different look. I will bring you the best makeup looks for every ceremony in this article.

The Haldi ceremony is one of the most fun ceremonies during the wedding. In most cases, the haldi ceremony will happen outdoors under the sun. So, before everything else, ensure you apply sunscreen. Also, you will have haldi smudged on your face, so it will make sense not to go overboard with the makeup. Choose a light base of foundation and concealer if you must. Use liquid foundation; the powder ones might get messy with haldi being applied to your face. But absolutely experiment with your eyes (with a waterproof eye makeup kit). Use bright colours to look fresh.
