As a bridal makeup artist, soft glam wedding makeup is the most requested look this year. But what exactly is soft glam makeup? Keep reading for tips on how to achieve this fresh and radiant look for your destination wedding in Riviera Maya, Mexico.

What exactly is soft glam? 

“Soft” glam wedding makeup refers to the blurred and perfectly balanced look that this trend is all about. Think glowing skin, brushed-through brows, diffused and monochromatic eyeshadow, and neutral lip color.

Everything is nicely blended, mostly one-color based, and, well, soft!  Neutral colors and natural-looking textures are used by our professional makeup artists to get this Mexico beach-ready bridal look. 

We could describe “soft glam wedding makeup” as a step up from natural makeup and a step down from full glam makeup. So this is the perfect middle ground between a makeup-free look and full-on glam.

Here are some of our bridal makeup expert secrets:

Step 1: Skin Prep

Prepping your skin for makeup is one of the most important steps in makeup application. Cleanse, massage, and moisturize …. We can’t say it enough: take care of your skin!

Then you’ll be ready for a smooth application of contour, foundation, and highlighting.

Eyes & Soft Glam Brows

For a soft glam wedding look, it’s important to fill in any sparse areas in your eyebrows while still maintaining a natural fullness. Keep your brow hairs separated and soft.

To complete the look, use fluttery lashes to bring your eyes to life. Instead of winged eyeliner, go for a smudged look and choose earthy, neutral, or chromatic tones for your eyeshadow.

Slighty Defined Glam Lips

As long as you keep your lips natural, neutral, and in the same color palette as your eyes and cheeks, you can opt for a more defined lip shape with lip liner.
