How do I get a fresh, dewy beauty look for my spring wedding?
Preparation is key here. It may sound obvious, but in the lead-up to your day, drink as much water as possible. Use a hydrating face mask two to three times a week, and look for ingredients such as hyaluronic acid, which is super-hydrating, and vitamin C for brightening the complexion. If possible, I would go lightweight for the base; it's not always necessary to have full-on foundation. Some CC creams and tinted moisturisers give enough coverage as well as looking less heavy on the skin. Team this with radiance fluid, a little translucent powder and concealer. Finish your base with a subtle highlighter on the high points of the face to create that dewy feel.
For a spring wedding, I would opt for a soft, bright lip; something that provides a pop of colour, perhaps to match your bouquet. For your eyes, opt for neutral shades with long lashes. Complete the look with blush in soft coral or pink on the cheeks.

The UK Hen & Stag Destinations Everyone’s Booking for 2026
Once dominated by big nights out and budget flights abroad, hen and stag parties in the UK are having a rethink, and things are now looking very different. Research suggests that pre-wedding celebrations could be completely sober as early as 2040, with groups instead embracing alcohol-free celebrations that they're more likely to remember. Also, rising travel costs, tighter schedules and a growing appetite for wellness experiences are pushing more groups to stay closer to home.

The philosophy of white - Pantone's Colour of the Year
