Jenna Bush stuck to a soft and natural look for her country wedding to Harry Hager at her family's Texas ranch this past spring. With barely-there makeup and flowing, wavy hair adorned with a few pretty blooms, she was a glowing country bride. So if you're having an outdoor wedding, forgo the polished updo and bold hues for this fresh style.
JENNA'S HAIR
"Jenna Bush's wavy locks are easier to achieve than you might think," says David Dieguez, creative director of Blow, a styling salon in New York City. Start with damp hair, apply to the ends Blow Wave Maker, $20, which is sulfate- and paraben-free and packed with botanicals, and then twirl the hair while heating with your dryer. Once the hair feels dry, finish it with a shot of cold air.
To create this style, Dieguez says: "Simply place your thumbs at the tops of your ears and glide upwards and back until they meet." Secure the hair with bobby pins. Next, use a rubber band to attach a bobby pin to a flower stem. Place a fresh floral bloom where your hair meets in the back. For helmet-free hold, use a light spritz of Ojon Tunu Elastik Flexible Finishing Hairspray, $25, which contains a natural elastic fiber that sticks while allowing a bit of bounce when the wind blows.
JENNA'S MAKEUP
Since you're not drawing attention to any one feature with this au natural look, you'll want a flawless base. Choose a mineral powder foundation with UV protection since you'll be outside — you don't want to be a sunburned bride! Try Sephora Mineral Double Compact Foundation SPF 10, $22.
You only need a hint of color on your cheeks for this look. Get it with all-natural Josie Maran Blush in Passion, $20, a fresh pink hue designed to mimic your natural flush.
Create a neutral eye with a brown palette like Nvey Eco Organic Creative Eye Color System No. 3, $61. Coat top lashes with vegan Ecco Bella FlowerColor Natural Mascara, $14.95, in brown — it's water-resistant, uses clay and iron oxides and is free of lacquer, shellac and alcohol.
Finish a soft and pretty face with a sheer pinky brown lip color like Korres Cherry Full Color Gloss in Nude 33, $16. The formula is packed with natural ingredients, including cherry and jojoba oils, which will keep your lips soft and kissable through your "I dos."
