Getting married in the cold and wintry season? From deciding whether a tan is appropriate or not, to keeping skin looking rosy in a chilly venue, tying the knot during the winter presents a set of beauty challenges that summer brides don't have to entertain.
Kelly Lloyd-Sanderson of beauty, health and wellness company Arbonne shares her top five tips to make sure you're a beautiful, blushing bride, even if the weather outside is frightful.
- Embrace the season and make use of berry or autumnal shades in your look. Try an incredibly flattering copper eye shadow or a lipstick in a rich berry inspired hue.
- Consider focusing on the eyes. A key trend for autumn/winter make up in 2014 is stand-out, defined eye make up. Consider sporting sultry eye make up with shades of taupe such as those in Arbonne's Get The Look: Smoky Eye Set. The dramatic smoky look is timeless and perfect for wedding guests and the bride alike.
- Inclement weather can wreak havoc on hair. Ensure your locks remain shiny and frizz-free by prepping hair with a serum before styling. A dot of the serum can even be smoothed throughout your 'do during the day, should any unwanted strands appear.
- Fairytale inspired looks, with their focus on bold features and flawless, untanned skin are perfect for a winter wedding. To complete your own happily ever after, try channelling Snow White, with a neatly defined eye and a pop of bright red lipstick.
- Wedding day nerves and a chilly chapel can leave skin looking and feeling a little dull. Ensure you glow through the entirety of your special day by using a highlighter to add luminosity to your skin.
