At GLOW Beauty Bar, we are known for our luxury skincare treatments, but did you know we also offer hair and makeup services, too? It’s true, from brides to big events, we are here to get you ready starting with customized skin treatments to full glam.


Are you planning your big day? Congrats! We offer a full service menu for brides and the wedding party. But, the question is, do you know what you want? It can be tricky to decide the exact look for your wedding day. Here are the hottest bridal trends for hair and makeup this year, which ones are your favourite?


1. Blushing Bride


A rosy glow is a must during your big day! A new take on the whole ‘blushing bride’ ask for a cream blush over powder for a naturally blushing look.



2. Your Hair Your Way 


Gone are the days of stiff and dramatic updos, and say hello to carefree ways to wear your hair. Think loose waves, a low bun, and playing with your hair’s natural texture.

3. ‘Bronze’ Eyed Girl


Typically in the past, neutral taupe shades or a dramatic smokey eye were the ways to go. In 2020, we are opting with glam bronze for our eye makeup. A little more fun than taupe hues, but not as bold as a smokey eye, a bronze shadow is the perfect in-between and looks amazing on all eye colours!



4. Lip Service


Lip colour is a trend that is ever changing. For a while, we saw matte lips were the way to go, and remember when high gloss was a must? Today, a lip tint is all you need. A natural looking, pop of colour that rounds off your look, without worrying about leaving a lip print on all of your guests. 



5. Hair Jewelry 


We know that veils are a classic look for every bride, but if you are looking to change up your bridal hair, why not a jewelled headband? A trendy way to add some glam to your look, in a fashion forward way!

6. Go For The Glow 


We may be biased, but a bronzed bride in a white dress is always a good idea. Adding a healthy glow is always on trend, and with GLOW Beauty Bar’s spray tan service, we can guarantee you will have a natural looking glow on your big day!


Which 2020 bridal trend is your favourite? Let us know.

Taking good care of your skin involves more than just your monthly in-spa treatments -it has a lot to do with the skincare and makeup products you invest in and use daily. You may be using the best skincare products, but are you using the best makeup products for your skin?


As makeup sits on your face all day and penetrates its surface, you aren’t helping your skin by using chemical filled makeup. That’s why dermatologists have always endorsed using mineral, pharmaceutical-grade makeup. Mineral makeup is made up of finely pulverised rock and sits on the skin but does not penetrate into your pores like regular makeup would.


As mineral makeup is more pure, it will not cause any skin irritation, sensitivity, or allergic reactions and is suitable for all skin types. Mineral makeup has the added benefits of protecting skin with issues such as acne, rosacea, melasma, etc. and is recommended for those with any sensitive skin concerns.

As acne-prone skin tends to produce more oil and therefore clogs your pores, it is important to use mineral makeup products that will not further penetrate into the pores. Mineral makeup products are great for those with rosacea as they will do the job of covering your redness without irritating the skin, as these products are chemical free. Furthermore, for those with a condition such as melasma, mineral makeup with SPF protection are staple products.


Ensuring your mineral makeup products have sun protection is an important factor in your skin care. Sun protection is essential to prevent ageing skin, as sun damage is a significant cause of wrinkles due to the loss of collagen from the sun.


A brand like Colorescience specializes in creating mineral makeup that is chemical-free, but also adds in the extra benefit of sun protection through micronized zinc oxide and titanium dioxide. Colorescience creates a variety of makeup and skincare products, such as mineral powders, skin correctors, primers, and serums, all with SPF protection.

Some of the most popular Colorescience products GLOW Beauty Bar carries are the Sunforgettable Mineral Sunscreen, All Calm Redness Corrector, and the Even Up 3 in 1 Skin Protector, all perfect for those struggling with acne, rosacea, melasma, or any other similar skin condition. If you’re curious about the Colorescience line, we would be happy to answer any questions and make the best product recommendations for your skin type or skin concerns!


Glo Skin Beauty is another great makeup line, with award-winning mineral makeup -available for purchase at GLOW Beauty Bar. Every product in the mineral makeup line is talc-free, paraben-free, and cruelty-free. Glo makeup is manufactured with ultra-fine minerals in a triple-milled process to create formulations that enhance and protect even the most sensitive skin.



Here at GLOW we not only stress the importance of getting regular facials, but want to ensure every cosmetic you put on your skin, whether it’s skincare or makeup products, that they are the best quality with the best ingredients to treat and protect your skin!
