From bold brows to natural makeup and gorgeous braids, here are the hottest looks in bridal beauty this summer.
Pro-Advice
"Wedding makeup should enhance your natural beauty. Choose a look that is a beautiful version of YOU. You don't want to look like someone else on your special day. Your photographs should be timeless." ABOUT FACE
Full Brows
bold and beautiful
Makeup by MUA Lauren M. Vivid Dream Photography
Strong brows are dominating the summer 2017 season. With the quest for the perfect brows, microblading has become an incredible solution to a beautifully natural, fuller brow. Full natural-looking, yet more subtly arched brows are replacing the graphic Instagram brow of last season.
Natural Hair and Makeup
NATURAL
Makeup by About Face Let your natural beauty shine through on your wedding day with glowing skin, lightly flushed cheeks and fresh lips. Pro Tip: Make sure your skin is clean, exfoliated and well moisturized. Ask your makeup artist to apply a light foundation and a light dust of blush to the apples of your cheeks for a healthy rosy flush. Finish the look with a nude lip with just a hint of color.
Beautiful
BRAIDS
Makeup and Hair by About Face
Braids are still making a big statement this season from faceframing halos to intricately woven updos. Pro Tip: For a totally romantic style, try an updo with layered braids and delicate face-framing strands.
Makeup Looks
Glossy Lips

Before Makeup by About Face
Last year was all about matte lips, but glossy lips have made a come back this summer. Lip gloss is youthful, gives a fresh, healthy shine, and adds just enough dimension to the lips .
Hair
Laissez
Makeup by About Face Vivid Dream Photography
This season is about laid- back, free-flowing locks and undone updos. The look is fresh, contemporary and effortless. It offers an alternative to the traditional chignon (hair in a knot on the back of the head). Pro-Tip: Whether you want a or to wear your hair up or down, ask your hairstylist to give your hair some extra texture by teasing or adding in waves before pulling it back. Allow strands to loosely hang around the face. This will give the look an updated modern vibe.

GLOWING HIGHLIGHTS
Makeup by About Face The beauty industry’s obsession with highlighting is still going strong but instead of a striking, strobed look, try a softer approach by dusting a small amount of glowing powder or cream over the top of the cheekbones and over the Cupid’s bow for a fresh, healthy bridal glow.
Makeup
Monochromatic This always on trend method lives up to its name and is when eye, cheek, and lip makeup shades are kept in same color family.

TASTY GOLD BREW SUMMER MATCHA DRINKS
SUMMER MATCHA DRINK
Matcha
is a special form of green tea with many health benefits
Healthy Summer Brew SUMMER MATCHA DRINK INGREDIENTS: 1/2 LIME (SLICED OR JUICED) 1/2 LEMON (SLICED OR JUICED) FEW FRESH MINT LEAVES 1 TEASPOON MATCHA 16 OZ FILTERED WATER ICE MAPLE SYRUP (OPTIONAL)
Matcha doesn’t actually dissolve so when “brewing” it with cold water, you need to mix it very well to temporarily suspend the tea particles in the water. You can make this drink using either a bottle or a big cocktail shaker. First, put ice, water and matcha powder in a shaker or glass water bottle/mason jar and shake it vigorously for about a minute. The matcha should be smooth and creamy. Next pour it over ice with slightly muddled mint, some lime and lemon slices and finish it off with a little maple syrup (which is totally optional). This makes two servings.

Matcha Tea THE HISTORY
All true tea comes from the tea plant “Camellia Sinensis”, a shrub native to Southern China. Green tea is known as the “healthiest” form of tea due to its lack of processing, resulting in extremely high nutrient levels. Matcha green tea originated in Japan, and because the entire leaf is ingested in powder form, it is the most potent green tea in the world. In Japanese “cha” means tea, and “ma” means powder, thus the word matcha translates literally as powdered green tea. It is believed that the very first green tea seeds were brought to Japan from China by the Zen Monk Eisai in 1191 A.D. WRITTEN BY ALFIE BURNS
