For most brides, a wedding wouldnโt be complete without a stunning makeover.
Every bride wants to look their absolute best on their big day, wow their wedding guests and of course, look amazing for their soon-to-be spouse. One makeup artist has become a viral sensation after sharing the astounding before and after photos of some of her brides. Arber Bytyqi is a talented makeup artist based in Prizren, Kosovo, and is taking the internet by storm with his transformations.
Check out our top 23 bridal transformations and learn some tips from the artist behind it all.
We are living for the soft pink shades that pull this look together, giving it a dreamy, romantic quality. Arber said in an interview with
Bored Panda:
โI got interested in makeup when I was just a child. The first drawings that I did were of eyes, girls or dresses. I used to take my momโs make-up and play with it when I was only five years old, so I knew that Iโll become a makeup artist pretty early.โ
This look really makes this brideโs eyes pop while erasing those dark circles. Not only does she look glamorous, but also well-rested.
We cannot get over how amazing the warm, golden highlight on her cheeks look. This bride looks perfectly bronzed and ready for her big day. Plus, the peach blush pairs beautifully with her nude matte lips.
This profile angle truly helps you see just how voluminous her hair is and how long those eye lashes are. Also, we love the drama that the gorgeous headpiece brings to the overall look.
The flush on this brideโs face is absolutely perfect, giving new meaning the โblushing brideโ fantasy.
According to Arber, he creates unique makeup looks for over 1,000 brides each year, particularly in peak wedding season โ summertime. Arber called the summer season โvery demandingโ, with he and his team doing makeup for over 60 brides in a single day. However, Arber has called his career in the beauty industry as his โdreamโ and was determined to follow it even as a young man.
This simple and dramatic red lip elevates this brideโs looks to next-level classy. This look makes her lips even bigger and voluptuous than they already are, and we are here for it.
Nothing is more elegant than the top-braid and flowing curls, making this bride looks like a real princess. The cat-eye liner also gives this look a bold edge.
Pulling out a few tendrils of curled hair dramatically framed the face and gives the illusion of effortless style. Her nude lip keeps the look fresh and light, while still keeping it glamorous.
Arber went on to discuss how he tackles helping his bridal clients:
โWhen I meet my client, the first question I ask is what kind of occasion are they getting their makeup done for. I also ask my clients if they have any specific requests. For example, if they want a natural or dramatic look. Then I ask them [to show me] the dress that they are going to wear. The design of the dress and its details reveal the style of the look the client is going for. Then, I analyze their facial features.โ
8. Airbrushed to Perfection
While there is nothing wrong with pores and natural beauty, we are stunned at how flawlessly airbrushed this bride looks. We canโt see a single pore or wrinkle on her โ and her skins looks so radiant and healthy!
Arber truly demonstrates his skills in this makeup transformation with his expert contouring. By giving a light shading to her nose, he deftly is able to straighten and give the illusion of a smaller, pert nose. The added hint of lilac shadow on her eyelids also creates a beautiful contrast with this brideโs naturally stunning green eyes.
While all of these brides are naturally beautiful, this transformation really highlights this brideโs best features. The pin curls framing her face create a classic elegant Hollywood glamor, elongating her neck and making her already long neck look even longer.
In this look, Arber went for a darker shade of red, giving this bride the perfect sultry pout for her wedding day. The soft neutral-toned shimmer on her eyelids pairs perfectly with the bold lip, still giving her eyes a dramatic look without being too overpowering.
Lipgloss is having its comeback (again) in the world of beauty. This brideโs glossy lips make her makeup look fresh and youthful without losing any of that wedding elegance.
Arber Bytyqi revealed that when he finished high school his family was not supportive of him following his dream to become a makeup artist. Apparently, in Arberโs culture, it is taboo for a man to be interested in traditionally feminine fields, such as beauty.
Clearly Arber has a talent for not only transforming these brides, but also helping their natural beauty truly pop. We are loving how this brideโs gorgeous green eyes are the focus of this look. Consider us jealous of those jade eyes.
14. Mesmerizing Monochromatic
In this look, Arber plays with the monochromatic look by keeping a theme of cool pink throughout, matching this brideโs lip color to her eyeshadow and even highlighter. Plus, the pink lipgloss really accentuates this brideโs perfect pout.
This flirty look brings a wild pixie vibe that seems to fit this delicate bride. Plus, we love the dreamy eyeshadow look, complete with long romantic eyelashes.
15. From Business to Beauty
This is easily one of our favorite looks from Arber. The neutral shades compliment this brideโs natural glow, making her look both youthful yet still like a mature woman. How can you not be obsessed with those perfect brows?

16. Bridal Royalty
This look is straight out of royalty and we are here for the Duchess vibes. The warm buttery shades on this brideโs lids and lips are reminiscent of summer and contrast beautifully with her deep brown eyes. The highlight on her collar bone accentuates her perfect glow, making this bride ready for a summer wedding.

This bride looks like she came right out of a Miss America pageant and we are here for it. This makeup really lifted her under-eyes, giving her a refreshed and dramatic look. We also love Arberโs creative choice to enhance and highlight her natural beauty mark.
21. Dripping in Diamonds
Our favorite part of this look is the brideโs subtly ombre lips, with the center being a candy-apply red while the rest is a deeper, richer shade. The warm rose gold shimmer on her inner corners also works to make her vibrant green eyes stand out.

We love these cool purple shades for this brideโs look. Not only does it help bring out her eyes, but the colors perfectly compliment her skin tone. This is definitely the perfect soft glam bridal look for her big day.
23. Influencer or Bride?
This is clearly one of Arberโs more dramatic makeup looks, but we are in love with the bold sequins framing this brideโs eyes. While this is certainly not for every bride, we love that this bride went for this sleek and edgy look for her big day, making her eyes the real focal point of her overall look.
