Let your jewellery guide your makeup 

Will wedding bells ring soon? If yes, we are sure you must be spending all your time on Pinterest creating mood boards for that perfect outfit or makeup look. But have you paid attention to an aspect that could make or break your big day? Not many will tell you but matching your makeup to your jewellery can be a game-changer! 

Whether it’s your haldi makeup look, engagement makeup look, or the wedding, choose bold or subtle based on the jewellery you wear. If you are someone who likes to make a statement, a maximalist makeup look paired with striking earrings or a mang tikka will make much-needed noise. On the other hand, if a delicate piece of jewellery floats your boat, you could go for undertones of bronze or rose gold for your skin and eyes. 

Now that you’ve got the drift, here are some tips that can help you pair the right makeup and jewellery for your big day. 

A balancing
act

Achieving balance is what one needs when matching jewellery and makeup. Both elements can’t be bold or subtle because this will mess up the aesthetic and disappoint you.

Gold jewellery
and red lips

We think wearing gold earrings for the pre-wedding festivities or the big day is a good idea. Pair the 22-karat yellow gold Royal Blossom Gold Stud Earrings from the Nav-raani collection by Tanishq that features exquisite floral enamel on a beautifully polished gold sheet. For a winning combination, go for a bold red lipstick shade and shine at your wedding. Trust us, no one will be able to take their eyes off you.

Eye-catching eyeshadows and mang tikkas

The mang tikka is a traditional bijou yet it’s becoming increasingly popular as a contemporary style statement. We suggest the Mesmerising Maang Tikka from the Rivaah collection by Tanishq which stands out for its craftsmanship. You could go for an eyeshadow in rose gold, bronze, or even blues to command attention. 

Kohl eyes and nose rings

Some classic combinations can never go wrong. A case in point is heavily kohled eyes with a striking nathini that is characteristic of an Indian bride. Pick the Fancy Gold Nose Pin from Rivaah by Tanishq, crafted from 22-karat yellow gold. Its sheen is so bright that you will be in the spotlight all night!

Nude face and statement jewellery

The modern-day bride enjoys wearing a no-makeup makeup look these days to avoid looking too gaudy. But who said less can’t be glamorous? With almost a plain canvas, one can play around with jewellery as much as they want to (or vice versa). This Meenakari Enamel Gold Necklace Set is all you need to take your bridal look to the next level. After all, it features glass enamel on a rich gold background for a resplendent look. 

There’s more…

While these are only a few suggestions, keep in mind that your jewellery must guide your makeup. Remember the ground rule: if one is more striking than the other, try to tone down the other element and you are good.
