Prep and Nourish Your Skin: Building Your Bridal Self-Care Routine
To channelise your inner radiance and allow that glow-from-within look to peek through your skin, curating a self-care roster is the first step. A detoxifying diet enriched with nutrients and hydration is the key to maintaining your gut health, which has a great impact on the skin and hair. It is always recommended to avoid sun exposure and protect the skin with adequate SPF. When it comes to your AM and PM skincare regimen, keep the chemicals at bay and incorporate natural recipes. Forest Essentials’ Ayurvedic skincare range has all-natural products for every skin concern. Incorporate the Transformative Soundarya Night Cream in your bedtime skincare routine and wake up to radiant, youthful skin. It is infused with 24K Gold, Bakuchiol, Hyaluronic Acid and Polyglutamic Acid to improve skin elasticity, stimulate deep repair, and tone and firm your skin while it’s resting.

Now that we have covered the basics, it’s time to dive into the main natural wedding makeup steps to achieve the perfect look.
Step 1: Cleanse, Tone, and Moisturise
Facial Tonic Mist Mogra
₹1375.00
The first step towards achieving the perfect natural wedding makeup look begins with cleansing, toning, and moisturising. This trifecta lays the foundation for flawless makeup application by ensuring a clean and hydrated base. Start by gently cleansing the skin to remove any impurities and excess oil, followed by toning to balance the skin’s pH levels and tighten pores. Cooling, hydrating, and fragrant, Forest Essentials’ Facial Tonic Mist Mogra is the ideal pick for summer brides. Finally, lavish your skin with a nourishing moisturiser to lock in hydration and create a smooth, supple surface for makeup to adhere to. This essential skincare routine sets the stage for a radiant complexion that glows from within on your special day.
Step 2: Creating a Flawless Base
Once you have completed your CTM routine, it’s time to prep the skin with a primer and foundation. For achieving the perfect natural wedding makeup, choose a light to medium coverage formulation. The Som Rasa Silk Skin Tint by Forest Essentials is an innovative Ayurvedic blend that promises a seamless satin finish. The super lightweight, breathable, and buildable formula is enriched with skincare ingredients that also offer a long lasting coverage. It is available in 10 shades, so you can rest assured you’ll find your skin’s perfect match! If you are someone with oily or combination skin type and need to tame the greasiness, dab some powder on your T-zone to mattify the skin.
For a base that lasts all-day, blurs out imperfections and imparts a natural luminous sheen, you need to layer your foundation with a concealer. The Som Rasa Velvet Concealer from Forest Essentials’ natural makeup range is a creamy formula which masks blemishes and pigmentation while also hydrating and nourishing the skin. You can use your fingertips to place the concealer under your eyes, over your forehead, and in other problem areas. The lightweight and velvety formulation can be seamlessly blended with a brush or a makeup blender, leaving a dewy sheen. For highlighting certain areas of your face naturally, choosing a concealer with a shade lighter than your foundation will instantly deliver the desired results.
Step 3: Ready, Set, Glow
Nayantara Clear Lash & Brow Serum
₹1495.00
Now, you’re ready to paint the canvas. Whether you’re hiring a professional or going DIY, it’s best to have reference images ready. After your base is ready, add warmth to your complexion with a touch of bronzer or a soft sweep of peachy blush on the apples of your cheeks. Define your eyes by softly lining the upper lash line with a brown or taupe eyeliner, smudging it for a softer, more natural look. The Brown Gulaab Khaas Kajal by Forest Essentials is a great shade for a subtle look. Opt for neutral eyeshadows in shades like taupe, champagne, or soft brown to add dimension to the eyes without overpowering them. Finish with a coat of mascara to lift and lengthen your lashes, keeping them fluttery and natural. Finally, complete the look with a swipe of tinted lip balm or a sheer lipstick in a shade that complements your natural lip colour, adding a hint of freshness and vitality to your overall appearance.
Not sure how to craft your natural wedding makeup look? Below, we have compiled the best natural makeup looks for weddings that embody the classic ‘less is more’ maxim. Whether you’re on the lookout for ideas for natural wedding makeup for fair skin, wheatish skin, or dark skin, we’ve got the best picks for you.
Draped in Sorbet: Natural Wedding Makeup for Day Weddings
Noor Nikhaar Satin Cheek Tint Gulaabi - Pink
₹1975.00
Noor Nikhaar Satin Cheek Tint Manikya - Ruby
₹1975.00
A blush-flushed look that stays timeless in every season is the ideal choice for the natural makeup bride. We recommend setting a monochromatic tone, based on your outfit and occasion. Whether your pick is a sun-kissed glow or a fresh berry-stained look, a creamy blendable formula will do the trick. Try the Noor Nikhaar Satin Cheek Tint range from Forest Essentials, available in four gorgeous shades that are an ideal match for all Indian complexions. Once you have blended your base, begin dabbing this velvety blush onto your cheeks and extend towards the temples. You can choose from pink, ruby, peach and terracotta tints. Leaving a satin finish, these cheek tints have a lasting coverage owing to the intense pigment. Use a similar-hued eyeshadow and highlight your eyelids, lightly blended with the blush for a put-together natural finish. Add some mascara to curl and lengthen the lashes or if you prefer, choose to go with false lashes. For the lips, you can maintain the colour palette and create the perfect pink pout. For a statement worthy look, glide over some clear gloss.
Golden Glow: Natural Wedding Makeup for Cocktail & Sangeet Nights
Highlighting Glow Sona - Gold
₹2200.00
Want to opt for a natural glam look for cocktail soirees, engagement parties, and reception galas? Go for dewy and illuminating makeup with soft-shimmery highlighters. A wash of pearly sheen can be achieved effortlessly with Forest Essentials’ Highlighting Glow Sona. This golden highlighter balm is infused with 24K Gold Bhasma to lend your skin a luminous, angelic radiance. The silken emollient glides onto the skin, exuding a light-reflecting finish. You can also choose from three other radiant shades to match every look. Apply the highlighter balm over your cheekbones, bridge of the nose, below the brow arch and at the cupid’s bow. To compliment your dewy-glossy skin, opt for plump-juicy lips and mellowed down lustrous lids.
Mocha-Coded Skin + Smokey Eye: Natural Wedding Makeup for Night Weddings
The latte makeup look is a celebrity-approved beauty trend that has swiftly made its way to India. A befitting look for Indian skin complexions, this makeup is all about bronzed-dewy skin and soft contouring. Choose a foundation that’s a few shades darker than your skin tone to get the ideal contour or bronzer shade. We suggest going for a creamy formula which can be blended without leaving harsh edges. While contour is always matte and allows a sculpted appearance, a bronzer has a gleaming finish which is perfect for a softer look. Place the product around your face, temples, nose, jawline, and cheekbones for a naturally enhanced makeup look.
To match the bronzed memo, highlight your eyes with a champagne, copper, or gold shimmer eyeshadow. Use a black kajal to create a soft smokey eye effect. Draw the kajal on your eyelids and gently diffuse it using an eye brush. The Gulaab Khaas Kajal by Forest Essentials is an ideal pick to create a long-lasting smokey eye. The kohl stick is intensely pigmented and glides effortlessly. You can choose from charcoal black or earth brown colours based on your makeup palette and define the eyes. Don’t forget to draw the kajal over your lower lash and smudge it to complete the smokey eye look.
Cloudy Skin with Popping Lips: Natural Wedding Makeup for Mehendi & Haldi
Madhu Rasa Tinted Lip Serum Gulab Jal
₹1850.00
Madhu Rasa Tinted Lip Serum Misri Cardamom
₹1850.00
Ideal for fun-filled day functions like Mehendi and Haldi, the cloudy skin makeup is primarily a soft-matte hazy makeup look. This fresh, whimsy, soft-focus effect for your natural wedding makeup look needs you to embrace a mattifying foundation and lay-off the highlighter. If you have a satin formula, dab it with a mattifying setting powder. Follow it with pillowy soft textures for your concealer, blush, bronzer and eyeshadow to keep the lit-from-within, dreamy finish going. Allow your dewy base to peek through the demi-matte, airy makeup for a naturally glowing finish. This makeup look is a medley of well-blended, smooth textures that have an understated appeal. Next, give your lips a wash of popping tint with Forest Essentials’ Madhu Rasa Tinted Lip Serum. This buttery-soft, nourishing lip emollient is ideal to add a berry-juicy pop and a sheer gloss pout to your cloudy skin.
