Wedding season is here, and Lucknow brides are bringing elegance, tradition, and modern glamour together like never before. At Darpan by Pooja, Gomti Nagar, we’ve been working closely with brides across the city — and we’re seeing some stunning trends take shape this 2025 season.
If you're planning your big day and want a makeup look that photographs beautifully, lasts all day, and truly enhances your features, this blog is your guide.
Gone are the days of heavy, matte foundation. Today’s brides are loving luminous, dewy skin that looks fresh, hydrated, and radiant. We achieve this with hydrating primers, skin tints, and cream-based highlighters that reflect light without making your face look oily.
π‘ Perfect for day weddings, outdoor ceremonies, or brides who want a soft, natural glow.
One of the biggest trends we’re loving? Matching your eyes, cheeks, and lips in a single colour family. Think warm peaches, muted pinks, mauves, and terracotta. This look is cohesive, modern, and incredibly flattering across all Indian skin tones.
π°βοΈ Great choice if your lehenga is in soft pastels or jewel tones.
Night weddings and receptions are seeing a bold comeback: deep reds, berries, and rich maroons for lips — paired with soft smoky eyes or a metallic shimmer along the lash line. This timeless combo is both elegant and powerful.
π Perfect for brides who want to make a statement without going over the top.
Every bride is unique — so your bridal makeup should be, too. Here’s how to decide:
Match Your Timing: Day = soft, glowing tones. Night = bold lips or defined eyes.
Match Your Outfit & Jewellery: Gold jewellery? Go with warm makeup. Silver? Cool-toned hues look stunning.
Match Your Skin Undertone: Warm tones (peach, bronze) vs cool tones (plum, pink).
πΈ Pro tip: Always do a trial makeup run under different lighting (daylight, indoor, flash photography) to see how it photographs.
π« Over-powdering – leads to a cakey, dry look
π« Ignoring your undertone – can make makeup look dull or grey
π« Skipping a trial – never leave your bridal look to chance!
π« Not prepping your skin – hydrated skin = flawless finish
π« Using the wrong lipstick formula – always go for long-lasting, smudge-proof formulas
At Darpan by Pooja, we specialize in personalized bridal looks that enhance your features and suit your personality. From royal traditional to soft-glam minimalism, we craft each bridal makeup with care, quality, and high-definition products.
