Your North East Wedding - March/April 2023 (Issue 55)

Q&A Beauty Our two experts answer your hair and beauty dilemmas BOHO BRIDE We’re planning an informal boho wedding, so how should makeup complement this vibe? For the perfect boho bridal look, focus on glowing, dewy skin that lets your natural beauty shine through. Any imperfections can be hidden well with a touch of concealer, so don’t be afraid to ditch the full-coverage foundation! Sweep a highlighter along the cheekbones, bridge of the nose and Cupid’s bow, too, for that ‘fresh out a facial’ glow. You can also add a touch of bronze for a subtle, sun-kissed finish. When it comes to your eyes, stick to neutral shades using undertones that complement your natural colouring. I wouldn’t recommend going too heavy, but adding some fluttery eyelashes will give you an extra bit of impact that will help define your eyes in photos. Finish with a flush of colour on the cheeks and lips, leaning more towards a juicy, pouty lipstick, and a sheer, glowy blush.

Should I have more than one – and what questions should I be asking? A hair trial is your chance to talk to your stylist about your ideas and inspiration, looking at mood boards and discussing how your wedding is going to look so we can create that perfect style. A great stylist will ask questions about your dress and your venue, as well as what time of day your ceremony takes place, to ensure your hair holds for as long as it needs to. While bringing along inspiration is a great idea, your final style will be tailored to your hair type, face shape and any accessories that you will be wearing on the big day. How many trials you have is completely down to personal choice, but usually the consultation should be in depth enough at the first visit that you get the look you love.
