Sider Makeup: Glam Looks for the Bride Squad

Hey beauties! With the wedding season on, the focus is naturally on the bride. But behind all the glam and beauty of the bride, the key support system is the adorable bride’s family. Watching your daughter, sister or best friend walk down the aisle and tie the knot is surely an overwhelming experience. As the bride captivates everyone with her radiance, her eyes look for you in the crowd.

While the bride deserves to be in the spotlight with her dazzle, the bride squad also deserves to look equally special (without outshining the bride of course!). So here is your guide to perfect your Sider makeup look so you too, can look flawless through your loved one’s extra special day! Read on to know more.

Key Elements of Sider Makeup Looks

Weddings in India pack in a night of glamour, with unforgettable looks crafted with timeless elegance. A sider makeup look focuses on one strong side element, usually the eyes or hair, while keeping the rest of the face balanced and refined. This brings out your natural features, giving your face a fresh glow. While bold reds and golds will always have their moment, side makeup has quietly become a favourite among bridesmaids, mothers and sisters of the bride, and even modern brides who want something fresh. 

Being a part of the bride squad, you are always on the move, making sure the bride has had a bite to eat, touching up her makeup and securing her dupatta trail for her flawless photos. In the midst of this rush, your makeup must shine through, giving you a confident and polished wedding glow as you stand by her side.

Top Sider Makeup Look Ideas

1- Dramatic Eyes

Being an emotional part of the bride squad, your eyes are bound to light up with joy and happy tears. So, why not let your eye makeup reflect that affectionate energy! All you need to do is opt for a silver, champagne or rose-gold shimmer from a versatile eyeshadow palette like the Cosmo Glitz . 

Add depth to your eye makeup with a soft smokey eye using a dark brown shade or let your eyes do the talking with a classic wing and a good dose of mascara. Our Nazar Na Lage eye makeup range is perfect to add that drama without worrying about any smudges or drippy mascara. Your eyes will shine bright as you dance through the night, take a dozen photos and make a thousand new memories!

2- Bridesmaid Glam

This is your time to go all out with the glam quotient. Between multiple functions, shooting reels, taking pictures for the gram and being the bride’s biggest cheerleader, you need a base that stays radiant all day without feeling cakey. For a soft glam base that will keep you glowing all day, opt for our Serum Skin Tint that comes with an inbuilt brush and gives a silky smooth finish with its lightweight serum-like texture.  

For the eyes, it’s best to go for a brown or black smudged liner look with a soft shimmer across the lids. The lavender or copper shades in the Star Rush palette add a beautiful pop of colour while still keeping things classy. Add a dramatic liner to add some depth to your smudged look. For that natural flushed glow, mix some  Strobe Cream in Plush Pearl with your creme blush in the shade  Peach Puchka. 

Finish the look with our super chic Batua Pocket Lipstick  in the shade ‘Pressed Petal’, a gorgeous nude pink that comes in its own little ‘Batua’, your perfect plus-one for any wedding function. 

3- Seamless Matte Finish

When it comes to mature skin, the focus should be on perfecting the base. Start with prepping the skin with a Hydrating Primer, this ensures a smooth application while keeping the look age-appropriate and comfortable for long hours. Next, apply the Lights Camera Foundation in a shade that matches your skin tone. Dab on a little concealer to cover the fine lines and pigmentation. Use the Closing Call- Perfecting Powder 3-in-1 Mattifying, Color-Correcting, Finishing Powder to set your makeup with a matte finish.  

Let your smile shine, finish your look with the Batua Pocket Lipstick in the shade ‘Crunchy Mirchi’ for a rich satin finish. 

The beauty of the sider makeup look lies in its versatility. Whether you’re a sister dancing at the sangeet, a mother welcoming guests, a best friend owning the dance floor, or an aunt blessing the couple, your makeup will remain flattering through the night.
