Selena Gomez’s wedding to Benny Blanco was a masterclass in bridal beauty: timeless, elegant, and effortlessly radiant. From her dewy, glowing skin to her soft, romantic eyes, her bridal look proves that great makeup starts with great skin.
At Empowering Beauty, we help brides achieve that perfect base through targeted skincare and professional treatments – then enhance it with flawless makeup for the big day.
Radiant Skin: The Secret Behind the Glow
Selena’s luminous complexion wasn’t just the result of makeup, it came from healthy, well-prepared skin. A radiant base is the foundation of any bridal look, and achieving it requires a combination of personalised skincare and professional treatments:
Targeted Skincare: Address your specific skin concerns (hydration, uneven tone, texture, or sensitivity) with the right cleansers, serums, and moisturisers. Consistency at home makes a huge difference in how your skin responds to makeup.
Professional Treatments: At Empowering Beauty, we offer corrective facials (chemical peels, microdermabrasion, skin needling), and other treatments that smooth, brighten, and hydrate the skin. These treatments create a flawless canvas that makes makeup look effortless and long-lasting.
Glow-Enhancing Rituals: Simple additions like hydrating masks, gentle exfoliation, and SPF protection help maintain radiance in the weeks leading up to your wedding.
Pro Tip: Start your bridal skincare journey early! The best glow comes from consistent care over time, not just the night before your wedding.
Bridal Makeup: Enhancing Your Natural Beauty
Once your skin is glowing, makeup can help highlight and enhance:
Flawless Base: A lightweight foundation and targeted concealer enhance your skin without covering it up. A cream or liquid highlighter on cheekbones, brow bones, and the bridge of the nose adds that finishing touch of luminosity.
Soft, Romantic Eyes: Think fluttery lashes, neutral eyeshadow shades, and a thin line along the upper lash line for subtle definition. The focus is on enhancing your natural eye shape.
Elegant Nude Lips: A nude or soft pink lip balances the radiant skin and softly defined eyes, creating an understated, sophisticated bridal look.
Pro Tip: Makeup should complement your glow, not compete with it. That’s why investing in your skin first always pays off.
