Stuck on ideas for your bridal hair and makeup? Trends can be a great way to discover styles you might not have considered. So, what’s trending in 2025? In this blog post, I’ve rounded up five of the most popular bridal beauty trends to inspire your wedding day look!
Effortless, Undone Hairstyling
Gone are the days of rigid updos and overly styled chignons. This year, brides are embracing a more relaxed approach to hair styling. Natural, bohemian looks are in—think soft waves, loose chignons, and tousled ponytails with delicate face-framing details for a romantic touch. Textured buns are also trending on social media, so if you prefer a slightly more structured style, this could be the perfect choice for you.
Soft Glam
This perfectly aligns with my style—makeup that looks and feels natural on the skin but with a touch of glam. Soft dusky pinks and earthy brown tones on the eyes are proving to be popular, paired with diffused eyeliner to avoid harsh lines and edges. Fluttery lashes complete the look, adding to the soft glam aesthetic without feeling overdone. The goal of this trend is to enhance your natural beauty, helping you look and feel like the best version of yourself.
Vintage Hollywood Waves
Yes, the bohemian romantic look is a favorite, but vintage Hollywood glamour is also making a strong comeback. This style beautifully blends both vibes. Hollywood waves offer a structured yet effortless look that lasts all day—even in windy conditions. The style stays put while maintaining a soft, natural feel. There are plenty of options, too—you can opt for a classic center part or sweep it to one side for added drama. For a bold statement, pair this hairstyle with a striking lip color, or keep it soft and timeless with a nude lipstick and gloss.
Glossy, Natural Skin
Gone are the days of heavy matte foundation—today’s brides are embracing naturally glowing skin that looks radiant from within. To truly achieve this look, preparation starts months before the wedding. A good skincare routine is key to ensuring skin stays plump and hydrated, along with drinking plenty of water and eating nutrient-rich, skin-loving foods. This way, any complexion products will apply seamlessly without clinging to dry patches.
My go-to foundation for brides is the Charlotte Tilbury Beautiful Skin Foundation—it offers medium coverage while keeping the skin dewy and natural-looking. It doesn’t settle into fine lines and lasts for hours, despite its luminous finish. Paired with Charlotte’s Filmstar Bronze & Glow Palette for a soft, subtle highlight, you’ll effortlessly master the glossy skin trend.
Monochromatic Makeup
This trend focuses on harmonising your lip, cheek, and eye colours by using shades from the same colour family. The result is a beautifully cohesive and natural look that complements brides perfectly. I recommend opting for peachy, rosy, or dusky pink tones, as these work seamlessly across the complexion, enhancing your features with a soft, romantic touch.
In Conclusion...
2025 is all about celebrating individuality and embracing natural beauty with a touch of glamour. Whether you opt for a glowing complexion, an effortless hairstyle, or a statement lip, the key is to choose a look that makes you feel confident and beautiful on your big day.
