Winter symbolises sizzling fires, piping hot food and a pleasant weather and this makes winter the perfect season to have your wedding. But your wedding can be incomplete if you don’t take some inspiration from this lovely season and add a wintery touch to your makeup as well. So, here are some interesting winter makeup ideas for all you lovely brides-to-be.
Red is the traditional Indian wedding colour, so how can it be missed when it comes to the bridal makeup. Brides with a fair complexion can go for cherry red lips and flushed cheeks. The idea behind flushed cheeks is to make the bride look as natural as possible and it is not always necessary to use makeup for this look.

Peach blush also looks good on brides with a fair complexion.
