The latest hair and make-up trends for 2022

What are the latest bridal hair and make-up trends?

"Looking back at my wedding 13 years ago, I now realise how much trends have changed. I’m seeing more relaxed hairstyles such as loose tousled curls full of volume that are fluid and move freely. The most popular request is the half up and half down style with lots of twists and turns to add softness around the face. Another on-trend look is a low, simple wrapped bun. Less is most definitely more in 2022.

"Make-up requests have been focusing on a nude blush colour palette and applied in such a way to naturally enhance the eye shape. To frame the eyes, individual/cluster eyelashes have been strongly requested. As a make-up artist, these are my magic accessory for creating the wow factor for any bride. You don’t have to worry about becoming tearful as this won’t affect their longevity and they will last all day.

"When it comes to skin, satin textures work beautifully and even though powder is being used it’s kept to a minimum and only used in pocket areas of the face such as around the nose, under the eyes, the centre of the forehead and chin.

"A popular choice for lips is a subtle nude pink. This tends to enhance your natural lip colour. One of my top tips is to pop a slightly warmer shade in the centre of the lip to create a soft, voluminous pout."
