Richa Chadha’s bridal alter-ego has descended upon the scene in all of its all-white, head-swiveling glory — leaving in its trail a star-studded affair that has Instagram in a chokehold. The grip isn’t faltering any time soon because the celebrity just nourished our mood-boards with some show-stopping elements that warranted more than just a double-tap on a carousel. Really — it calls for a full-blown analysis of her choices for the day.
Chadha’s coveted clean-girl look has inspired in us an admiration for the aesthetic — with the actress epitomising the concept of minimalism with light-reflecting washes of highlighter dusted all over the skin, and enriching her aesthetic with shimmer-studded almond-shaped lacquers on the side. A demonstration of drama unfolds on the face as jewel-encrusted pieces reveal themselves to us gloriously — some skimming her cheeks, and others embellishing her forehead loudly. Let’s just say — top-tier above-the-neck as well as below-the-neck beauty choices.
Ahead — some bridal beauty lessons we’ve picked up from Richa Chadha’s wedding ceremony. Take notes, gals. I know I am.
This Bride’s Beauty Aesthetic Is A Love Letter To Classic Elegance
Turn Your Slicked-Back Bun Into A Dramatic Soap Opera
Richa’s slicked-back bun, endowed with a deep side-part, lends a sense of elegance to the actress’ aesthetic. The ‘do is minimal independently; but a demonstration of drama announces its arrival on the mane with a couple of show-stopping elements enriching her above-the-neck aesthetic. A jewel-encrusted passa, draped over the side of her forehead, further epitomises the royalty of the look while a nose-ring skims her face and hair gloriously. Notice how the heaviness of the ornaments is balanced out by the subtlety of her aesthetic.
Strengthen Your Commitment To Mascara
The actress’ clean-girl era lives on — it’s a world where Chadha has condemned the concept of falsies, and colour-drenched palettes have been traded in for lash-loving formulas. Chadha drowns her lashes in a heavy-handed slick of mascara — further playing into the subtleness of her aesthetic.
Vow To Never Forget About The Lacquers
Her almond-shaped lacquers drip with shimmer-studded elegance. This below-the-neck choice complements the aesthetic of her ensemble effortlessly. While J.Lo might have renounced white as her go-to colour for a celebration of her wedding, Chadha’s tips boast an iridescence that reigns supreme.
Don’t Kiss & Tell But Nude Lips Are The Best
Richa retains the minimalism of her bridal alter-ego with a matte-textured splash of warm-toned brown on the lips. The choice while stunning, doesn’t rob any element of its uniqueness in any way. Everything is planted on the face in a way that nothing dominates or overpowers the aesthetic — from star-studded lacquers to rose-flushed cheeks, every dab of colour plays a role in climaxing the aesthetic fairly.
Say ‘I Do’ To Coordinating Your Lips & Eyes
The bride’s lips proffer a warm-toned sensibility to the eyes as well — boasting a soft wash of brown that unravels itself all over the lids glamorously. Because who doesn’t like reveling in a monochromatic moment? Richa has punctuated the colour with a feline-like flick on both the lids.
Dressing Up Your Brows Is Non-Negotiable
Notice how conspicuously Richa’s eyebrows descend upon her forehead — bold and boisterous, they contrast the softness of her look glamorously. The trick? Just brush them sideways with one of your spoolies, and tame them with an eyebrow-gel. Retrieve your eyebrow-pen or pencil, and go over the area with fine, hair-like strokes that define the brows naturally. You’re now wearing a Chadha-approved look.
In Sickness & In Health — Blush Stays
The newlywed’s face models flushes of roseate on the cheeks as well as the temples. Hello, again, clean-girl aesthetic. We see you, and you’re flourishing. A liquid-based formula might do your skin more dewy-dumpling justice than a powder-based one.
If Your Wedding Is A Day Affair, Summon Up Your Highlighter
This day-glam aesthetic attests to the miracle of highlighter — notice how the sun-drenched bride’s skin glistens and glimmers resplendently in each photo. All you have to do is sweep some of the glow-inducing product on the high-points of the face to play into the aesthetic. Pucker up your pout by dusting some on the Cupid’s Bow as well.
Long way down — but I’m keeping these in mind. How about you?
