Ombre Lips

Ombre lips are set to be a standout trend for fall 2024, offering a modern twist on traditional bridal lip looks! This technique involves blending two or more shades to create a gradient effect, with a darker hue on the outer edges of the lips that fades into a lighter shade toward the center. The result is a multidimensional look that adds depth and fullness to your lips, making them appear more luscious and defined! For fall weddings, consider pairing rich berry tones with softer pinks or nudes to create a striking yet sophisticated ombre effect that compliments this cozy season’s rich color palette. Our artists at Updos For I Dos love this trend for its versatility and the way it can be customized to match your unique bridal style, adding a touch of artistic flair to your wedding day makeup!

Monochromatic Makeup

Monochromatic makeup is making waves for fall 2024, offering a cohesive and polished look by using a single color palette across the lips, eyes, and cheeks! We’re absolutely here for this movement. This trend embraces earthy tones like warm browns, soft terracottas, and muted mauves, creating a harmonious and sophisticated finish. By applying similar shades to different areas of the face, the look feels naturally balanced and effortlessly elegant, making it perfect for brides who want to achieve a refined yet understated appearance on their wedding day!

Soft Blush in Warm Tones

As the weather cools down, blush takes on warmer tones to bring a natural flush of color to your cheeks! Think soft peaches, warm pinks, and even subtle terracottas that add just the right amount of warmth to your complexion. These shades work beautifully with the fall palette, tying together your look in a way that feels cohesive and on season! Our artists use a mix of cream and powder blushes to create a soft, diffused effect that mimics a natural glow, making you look effortlessly radiant on your biggest day!

All-Natural Eyebrows

This fall, brides are embracing the "all-natural" eyebrow trend, opting for full naturally shaped brows that are groomed to perfection! This eyebrow look is all about achieving effortlessly done brows that highlight your natural brow shape while maintaining a polished appearance! Instead of overly defined or sculpted arches, this trend focuses on enhancing what you already have, using minimal product to fill in sparse areas and softly define the brow’s natural curve. The result is a beautifully balanced look that frames your face and compliments the rest of your bridal makeup, giving you a fresh, elegant, and timeless appearance for your special day!

Luminous Skin and a Dewy Finish

Glowing skin is always in, and for fall 2024, dewy and radiant complexions continue to reign supreme! This trend focuses on achieving a luminous, healthy glow that looks naturally radiant and fresh. Our artists at Updos For I Dos always try to emphasize the importance of pre-wedding skincare to ensure your skin is perfectly prepped for that soft, dewy finish. When and if your skin agrees, our artists use hydrating primers, lightweight foundations, and touches of illuminating products to enhance your natural radiance, making your skin look effortlessly beautiful all day long! 

Smoky Bronze Eyes

The smoky eye is a timeless bridal favorite, but this fall, it’s all about adding a bronzy twist! Smoky bronze eyes bring warmth and depth, making them the perfect compliment to the rich colors of autumn. Our artists start by layering warm brown and bronze shades across your lid, adding depth with darker tones in your crease, and finishing with a touch of shimmer on the center of your lid and inner corners! This look pairs beautifully with both bold lips or a more neutral palette, making it a truly versatile look for any bridal style!
