Many brides start thinking about how their wedding-day makeup will look the day they get engaged. While there are plenty of options to choose from, you might want to consider a beautiful boho style. It's a perfect style to complement a beach or desert wedding, and emphasizes a warm and natural look.
"Boho is all about glistened skin that looks radiant while using minimal products," explains makeup artist Bina Khan. "The eyes should be soft with a bronze tone, and the liner can be smudged out. Boho makeup is softer, more celebratory, and has a mood to it. Itās romantic and layered and leans on artistic expression rather than creating a 'look.'"

We're jealous of this beautiful bride, who flawlessly pulled off a green wedding dress and a seamless boho look. Her makeup was an extension of her natural features while allowing the dress to be in the center of the spotlight. The overall look paired well with the backdrop of the Utah desert.

Canāt make it to the beach before your wedding day? Donāt worry, some highlighting powder or a soft bronzer can create that same sun-kissed glow. Khan recommends adding rosehip oil to your foundation and sprinkling in a favorite champagne highlighter to achieve this look.

This beauty looks like she walked out of a fairytale with her neutral but glowing makeup, star-shaped earrings, and loose waves. The nude lip is the right hint of color against her natural look.

A natural look can still be paired with a touch of shine. At her small ceremony on the beaches of Oregon, this bride applied eyeshadow to give almost a glossy look in a dusty rose hue. The look was balanced with a pink-red lip shade.

A boho bride wants to look like herself on her wedding day, but she also wants to shine. For a fun disco touch like this bride did at her Panama wedding, have your makeup artist apply glitter as highlights to your cheekbones and on your eyes.
