The Korean Beauty Wave is taking the world by storm, and we can see why. Unlike the traditional Western-style makeup which tends to create a more dramatic look, the Korean style makeup focuses on enhancing every lady’s natural features whilst creating a look that is natural, sweet and youthful.
With the K-beauty wave, Korean-inspired bridal style makeup has also been popular with brides over the years. Following the ‘less is more’ mantra that many Korean beauty gurus have been talking about, Korean brides are always looking stunning and gorgeous even with makeup that is not too fanciful or dramatic. Think gradient lips, subtle natural blush, and innocent puppy eyes.
We share with you 4 popular korean bridal makeup trends so that you can create your own Korean-inspired bridal look!

1. Dewy Finish

A Korean-inspired bridal makeup is not completely without a dewy finish as a moist complexion will help to make the bride look more youthful and radiant, whilst hiding any imperfections or blemishes. To achieve the dewy finish, mix your moisturizer with your foundation to create a skin that is soft and shiny like a baby’s.
However, it is important to note that this dewy look will be more suitable for those who are doing an indoor wedding/ solemnization as the glowy look will be hard to pull off if you’re exposed to Singapore’s humidity.
2. Simple Eye Makeup

For a soft and romantic look, nude or light pink glitter eyeshadows will be able to make the eyes pop but still stay natural-looking. While lining the eyes, try not to use any harsh black lines, but go for a puppy eyeliner look to accentuate the roundness of your eyes and make them look bigger.
Also, stay away from those dramatic falsies, but opt for natural-looking ones.
3. Soft, Straight Eyebrows

It is no secret that the Korean ladies love having their brows straight and soft. The straight brow look will give brides-to-be a radiant and youthful appearance.
However, K-beauty makeup gurus have emphasized that it is also important to go with the natural shape of your eyebrows to prevent your look from being too artificial. So don’t try to force anything if it doesn’t suit your eyebrow shape or face shape! The key is still to look as natural as possible.
4. Gradient Lips

To create a soft, romantic and youthful look on your wedding day, the ever-so-popular ‘gradient lips’ may just do the trick. Gradient lips are meant to give off the ‘just bitten’ effect, where the lip colour is most pigmented around the centre of the lips, and then fading out around the edges. With this gradient lip effect, you are bound to look elegant while youthful!
To soften up the look, opt for peach, cherry-red or coral tones. A darker lip colour can be used to create a more sensuous and mature appearance.
We hope that these tips are able to help you create your Korean bridal makeup that will transform you.
