There’s nothing more glamxurious than a bride walking down the aisle wearing a bold color lipstick or lip-gloss with a high shine. Strong, glossy lips can be worn on your wedding day. Though usually more appropriate for evening, bolder brides can opt to stand out with a shimmering pout.

If you are going for a classic, dramatic makeup look be sure to keep the rest of your makeup minimal. The wet look with a high impact shine is very sexy and your sparkling lips will be paparazzi ready.
