One of the questions I get asked about a lot is wedding makeup styles, do these change year on year, how do you know what style to choose for you, and should you change your style for your wedding day or stick close to what you are used to?
First, there’s no one right way to do wedding day makeup. Every bride is different, and every wedding is unique. That’s why I wanted to put together this list of three popular styles of wedding makeup for 2022 brides.
Which Wedding Makeup Style Is Best For You?
Whether you’re a natural beauty who wants to keep it simple or a glamour queen who wants to go all out, there’s a style of wedding makeup for you.
1. The Natural Look
I’ve been a makeup artist for a long time and I think I can confidently say this is probably the most popular style of wedding makeup. It’s perfect for brides who want to look like themselves on their wedding day, but with a little bit of extra polish.
The natural look is all about enhancing your best features with a minimal amount of makeup. Think of a dewy complexion, light coverage foundation, subtle contouring, and a nude lip.
2. The Glamorous Look
This look is certainly growing in popularity! This style of wedding makeup is perfect for brides who want to feel like a Hollywood starlet on their big day. It’s all about going for bolder, more dramatic makeup.
Think red lips, smoky eyes, contoured cheekbones, and even false lashes. This is a great choice for brides who want to make a statement with their wedding day makeup.

3. The Romantic Look
This style of wedding makeup is perfect for brides who want to feel like a fairytale princess on their wedding day. It’s all about soft, romantic makeup.
The romantic look is all about peachy cheeks, rosy lips, and luminous skin. This is a great choice for brides who want to feel like they’re in a dream on their wedding day.
So there you have it, three popular styles of wedding makeup for 2022. Remember, as I said at the start of this article there’s no one right way to do wedding day makeup.
It’s all about finding a style that suits you and makes you feel confident on your big day. To help you find the inspiration you could ask to look at the gallery of some makeup artists or create a mood board over on Pinterest of wedding looks you love to help you pinpoint the style of makeup that best matches the vision you have for your wedding day.
