Did Selena Gomez just soft-launch the most iconic wedding beauty look of the decade? Because honestly, we’re still recovering.
Selena’s wedding carousel dropped on Instagram like a Beyoncé album—zero warning, millions of likes in under 30 minutes, and fans screaming, crying, throwing rice at their phones. Yes, the rumors were true: the Only Murders in the Building star did tie the knot with Benny Blanco this weekend, and the photos? Straight-up Pinterest board material.
And while the gown was angelic (lace, high-neck, halter—basically “ethereal bride” in dress form), beauty lovers everywhere zoomed in hard on two things: her nails and her hair.
The Nails: An Iridescent Masterpiece
Selena’s manicure wasn’t just bridal—it was bridal with a plot twist. Think pearly, off-white polish on elegant oval nails, kissed with an iridescent glow that whispered, “I’m timeless, but also cooler than your cousin’s French tips.” Rumor has it her pedi matched too. That’s called commitment to the bit.
The Hair: No Bun, No Problem
Here’s where Selena threw the bridal playbook out the window. Forget the traditional updo—our girl walked down the aisle with her sleek, side-parted lob flowing in Hollywood waves. If it looks familiar, that’s because she basically gave us a sneak preview at the Oscars in March. Yes, Selena treated the Academy Awards as a literal hair rehearsal. That’s called main character energy.
The Makeup: Rarely This Perfect (Pun Fully Intended)
Her glam was peak “Selena but bridal”: soft brown shadow, fluttery lashes, rosy cheeks, and lips so perfectly pink they may as well have been swatched straight from Rare Beauty’s next launch. No tags on her glam squad yet, but we’ll be refreshing her Insta like it’s Ticketmaster on Eras Tour day.
Selena didn’t just get married—she redefined what “modern classic” wedding beauty looks like. And somewhere out there, at least 10,000 brides are frantically texting their nail techs with the words: “Iridescent. Like Selena.”
