As the largest hair and makeup team on the East Coast, Fall is Bella Angel’s busiest time of the year. Of course we want to be sure our brides are fully aware of the best options for their wedding hair and makeup. As we transition from Summer to Fall, our goal is to have our brides’ hair and makeup evoke the rich warm tones of the season. While also maintaining a classic, elegant, and timeless look. Whether it’s your wedding day or every day, makeup should enhance your natural features. You want to be the best version of yourself.

Wedding Day Hairstyles

Fabulous Hair Ideas

Soft Loose Waves and Curls: Soft, effortless, loose waves continue to be a favorite. These waves can be styled to look romantic and natural, with a bit of volume at the roots. A side part or middle part with an autumn flower accent is certainly a perfect choice.

Sleek Updos

Long or Short You too Can have an updo

Wedding hair and makeup should be classic and elegant. “Old Hollywood”-style updos are making a comeback- but with a modern twist! A low bun or chignon with smooth, sleek finishes or add a twisted braid. Some brides are opting for side-parted updos for a more contemporary look. And don’t forget to add a hair accessory to complete your updo.

Boho-Chic

Braids add texture and interest to bridal hairstyles. Whether it’s a full braided crown, a loose braid incorporated into a half-up style or an updo. Or a delicate braiding details around a messy bun, this trend adds a boho-chic vibe. If you want to dress up your hairstyle for instance, try incorporating baby’s breath, green leaves or fall flowers. These looks are especially perfect for an outdoor wedding.

Hair Accessories

Pearls, rhinestones, floral pins, tiaras and headbands are popular accessories. These can be subtle or statement-making, depending on the bride’s style. Gold and silver accents are a great choice but be sure to match your jewelry.

Wedding Day or Any Day Makeup

Makeup Ideas

Eyes

Soft browns, in addition to burnt oranges, and jewel toned plums will create a captivating contrast. A brown or black eyeliner and a slight shimmer in gold to accent your eyelid is a perfect combination. If you want a little more drama, you can certainly try a winged eyeliner.

One of My Favorite Palettes

My favorite fall palette is Urban Decay. Urban Decay Original Naked Eyeshadow Palette – Limited Edition. For one thing, this palette will give you all the shades you’ll ever need. 12 Neutrals in ultra-smooth mattes, glimmering metallics, stunning shimmers and velvety satins. Furthermore, it’s easily blendable and perfect for beginners or experts.

Lips

Pucker Up

A muted berry, deep wine, burgundy, a classic red or even nude lipstick with a satin finish will work wonders. I am a big fan of lip stains they simply last longer. My recommendation is Kaja Lip & Blush Glazed keychain Stain. They have 6 perfect colors for Fall.

Cheeks

A soft rose or peach blush with a hint of bronzer to warm the complexion will balance out a bold lipstick. One of the best choices is NARS Orgasm Four Blush Quad. Of course, you should complete the look with two dimensional pink tones, a golden shimmer and a rosy bronze. This blush is buildable and will give you a beautiful glass finish.

Highlighter

A subtle champagne or soft golden glow on the high points of your cheekbones. Also, don’t forget to hit the tip of your nose and your cupid’s bow. Keep the focus on your eyes and lips. My favorite highlighter right now is Charlotte Tilbury Beauty Highlighter Wand. There are 6 colors to choose from and it’s certainly easy to apply. Just dot on the product with the sponge tip and blend. Furthermore, the texture is rich and velvety, and it blurs imperfections and enhances your skin’s luminosity for a glossy highlight.
In short, keep these tips in mind for your wedding hair and makeup and I am sure your look will dazzle this Fall.
