Here are 27 bridesmaids makeup ideas
1. Highlight
If you are looking to bring some light into your bridesmaid’s face, then add some highlight to the darker spots on their face.
Adding highlights adds a glow to those areas.
This is a great way to brighten up the eyes of your bridesmaid.
I like how they have also added highlights to the decolletage as well.
The smokey eyeshadow really makes this bridesmaid’s blue eyes pop.
2. Color coordinated
I like how this bridesmaid’s makeup matches the colors in the bridesmaid’s dresses.
This allows the colors in the flowers to stand out.
I like how they have kept this makeup neutral so that it goes with all skin shades and eye colors.
These bridesmaid’s dresses are also gorgeous.
I like how simple yet elegant they are.
3. Brush out your eyebrows
If you are wanting to make your eyebrows looks bushier and fuller, then using an eyebrow gel and brush is the way to go.
This seems to be a trend in the makeup scene.
The bushier your eyebrows are, the better.
Another thing I really like about this look is the two braids that this bridesmaid has on the sides of her face.
The added highlights in the corner of her eyes also make her eyes pop.
4. Use some blush
Here’s one of the most stunning bridesmaids makeup ideas that you could use if you’d like to add some blush to your cheeks.
This adds a feminine color and makes it look like you have sat in the sun for a while.

Chunky gold jewelry is trending right now.

Here’s another idea that uses brushed brows.
I like how they have uses a natural and neutral lip color and added a gloss on top of that.
The gloss adds a beautiful shine to the look.
The light eyeliner makes her blue eyes pop.

Lining your lips with a darker color and then going in with a lighter color to fill it in has been a makeup trend for a while.
This makes your lips look fuller and adds a beautiful dual color to your look.
This bridesmaid dress is a gorgeous green.
I also like how the flowers and the dress complement each other.
7. Light and bright
This makeup artist really knows what they are doing.
The use of highlights in this look really brings the light to her face.
The bold lashes also add a vibrancy to this look.
Again, here her lips are lined with a darker color than they are filled with.

I like how they have also used pink blush and full lashes.
The glossy lip also adds a beautiful touch.
Adding highlight under this bridesmaid’s eyes allows them to look bigger and brighter.

This is very interesting.
Using the eyeshadow to create the winged look is a clever way of still doing a winged look without using a harsh color.

With a bolder lip color, you can also use this idea for a vintage wedding theme makeup.

It also gives the effect of the bridesmaid having a tan.
