Natural Glam Bridal Makeup for Our Natural Beauties

Breckenridge Wedding MakeupIf you’re dreaming of natural glam bridal makeup in Breckenridge, CO, here’s something you might’ve never considered: “simple” doesn’t mean basic. It has been said that simplicity is the synthesis of complexity.

Why would a beauty blog say such things? Well, because it’s a big misconception that natural glam bridal makeup is quicker, easier, and requires less product, knowledge, skill, and artistry than soft or full glam.

This is simply not true!

Why Natural Glam Bridal Makeup in Breckenridge Takes Real Artistry

The simplicity of natural glam makeup or the “no makeup makeup look” is actually an amalgam of many techniques and sophisticated training that our bridal makeup artists have honed and cultivated into finely tuned mastery. (Think of a smart phone—its simple, user-friendly features are made possible by mind-boggling, behind-the-scenes complexity.)

With soft and full glam, we apply products that change the overall look of the face with layers and layers of foundation, dramatic contour and tone, and intentionally noticeable shadow and smoke. Not that that doesn’t take a high level of skill and artistry—of course it does, but everybody knows that! The point here is that natural glam requires just as much if not more.

With the natural look, we’re enhancing the features you already have (not creating new ones), and creating a “your skin but better” finish which can either be matte, dewey, or a hybrid of the two, and accentuating your natural eye shape which may include light, natural cluster lashes with brown liner or a “barely there” diffused wing. Or super soft hair strokes as we brush through your brows to ensure an overall natural, airy, and light result.

This calls for maximum attention to detail, palette precision in choosing colors, and a graceful but steady hand.

Simple Ideas to Elevate Your Breckenridge Wedding Makeup

Here are some other simple ideas that are sure to wow the crowd:

  • Lip simplicity could consist of pinky nude or flesh toned liner with a light shimmer gloss.
  • Or what about a light flush of pink or peachy blush!
  • If you have freckles, we can leave those popping through a transparent splash of color.
  • Eyeshadow might be a dusting of shimmer or a neutral wash of color on the lid.
  • Even a spray tan can be dialed back to deepen your already glowing skin tone.
  • If the cut of your dress allows, consider a sprinkling of shimmer on your décolleté.

Your formula will be specific to you, because highlighting and elevating your natural beauty cannot be duplicated on anyone else on the planet—another reason this is not copy/paste full glam makeup!

Regardless of your goal for your wedding makeup in Breckenridge, we will absolutely accommodate wherever you are on the spectrum—from barely there to fully baked—but hopefully we’ve now set the record straight on just how much goes into bringing out the best, most radiant version of your simply natural, divinely beautiful self.
