Beauty Tips for brides wearing glasses

Being a bride is a tedious task that we all know but things get even more difficult and complicated when the bride wears glasses. She has more stress and considerations going on in her mind. Even though many prefer wearing contact lenses but not everyone feels comfortable having them in their eyes and sitting with them throughout the wedding ceremony! There are also many brides who get a new pair of spectacles just for their wedding as they shop for their clothing and jewelry items. And why not? After all, it’s your day and you can pick what you want to make you look even more beautiful on that day. It’s all about defining your beauty for the most significant day of your life! You should look for the glitziest glasses and frames that go well with your attire.

But if you are planning to ditch the lenses and go on with your regular eyewear i.e. glasses at your wedding, you need to prepare yourself for every challenge that you will face while you’re getting ready! Glasses make a fabulous style statement ensuring that you don’t stumble walking down the aisle. If they’re part of your everyday look and you want to have them into your bridal look make sure they stand out. However, there are several things that you need to remember and take note of if you’re pondering about wearing eyeglasses on your D-day. From the way, you style your hair to how you do your skincare, and your makeup, there are so many things to consider when planning to get ready for your wedding day regime.

MAKE YOUR GLASSES A FEATURE

Your wedding day is going to be the most memorable day of your life, so it’s okay to overdo a little for yourself if needed. Consider getting a pair of new eyeglasses that will perfectly match your wedding dress. If you want to make your glasses an exclusive element of your wedding day ensemble, go for a simple yet classic, sleek, and sophisticated pair. Buying new eyeglasses is also great because you can wear them even after the wedding day. 

You can also make your pair of eyeglasses the focus of your look. Whether it’s bold-colored frames or decorative lenses, your glasses can always become the highlight of your look on the wedding day. Meanwhile, if you are a classic bride, getting eyeglasses with a simple design and light color tone can be really glamorous. 

Prep your eyelids 

Your makeup artist is an expert and knows how to do it but you should also have an understanding of how to prep your eyelids with a primer to keep the makeup. Primer ensures that your shadow stays in its place and blocks any creasing or fading. It’s all about using the advantage of its amazing staying power. You should also get some creamy concealer as a water-resistant option and finish off your face with a powder beneath your eyes so that products don’t fade. While you’re wearing glasses, there’s heat amidst your glasses and skin which can lead to melting the under-eye makeup. Therefore, make sure to use the setting powder which will act as a barrier between skin and glasses.

Don’t Forget – Contour and conceal

When you are wearing your glasses, your complexion looks more highlighted, you want to look flawless. It starts with basic skincare leading to the beauty regimen for your big day, and then make up with a mouse or matte foundation, expert contouring, and a bit of highlighting. Specs leave shadows under the eyes, so make sure you add enough concealer in a light formula. It will help you hide under your eyes and dark circles.

Test for eye shadow colors

The color and style of your eye shadow application play a great role in improving your overall bridal look! Whether you are wearing glasses or not, you need to make sure that your eyes stand out even if they are behind the frames. If you want to go for a subtle and natural look, light brown and pink should be a great choice!

If you’re thinking of getting eyelash extensions, go for short, individual add-ons. These will be great as they will give you a fuller look without bumping in your glasses otherwise making you uncomfortable every time you blink. Try to skip dark shadow, even in an ombre effect! This will not darken the eyes as well as create circles under the eye. Remember that glasses can hide eye shadow details; therefore you can try the pop of color or go for a dramatic smoky eye to enhance some definition.  

Remember to be you

Many brides are attracted to the idea of contact lenses. Try staying away from the makeup artist who pushes you to get lenses if they are not very comfortable for you! Usually, all the brides want to be and look at themselves, especially on their wedding day, but in a better way. If you regularly wear glasses every day does not compromise with them on the wedding day. Also, if you’re not used to wearing contacts, don’t push yourself! You can upgrade your frames for a special occasion pair that makes it special! Any professional makeup artist can create a look with your glasses rather than the mentality of working around them or asking you to get contact lenses.

Go for complimenting colors

If you are wearing a white wedding dress on your big day, go for a neutral-hued frame for the eyeglasses. They won’t overpower your gown or create a contrasting look that may end up very much awkward. Frames designed with a metallic finish either in gold or silver are also excellent because they add sophistication and glamor to your outfit.

Whatever kind of look you choose, it’s always important to go with an experienced hair and makeup artist who is competent enough to work with brides who can’t leave their glasses and also support your decision not to opt for contacts, if you choose. Always carry your glasses during your hair and makeup trial, so that you can know what goes into the look and you’ll look your best.
