The fun of planning a wedding also comes with a lot of stress, and for every afternoon spent cake tasting, there are a few hours of agonizing over where to seat your fiancé’s crazy aunt.
Stress and skin problems tend to go hand-in-hand, but with the right approach and plenty of time, you can have perfectly glowing skin for your wedding day!
Six months to go: Continue your skincare regimen and avoid flipping between products- consistency is key. Keep the stress at bay by taking a relaxing yoga class.
Three months to go: Stay consistent with your skincare, and add a professional body treatment like a body thermal mask or an exfoliating scrub. Test out different self-tanners and spray tans to get a healthy glow on your wedding day without damaging your skin.
One month to go: Get a brightening facial with extractions to amp up your glow, and schedule your makeup trial to find your perfect colors.
One week to go: Stay vigilant about applying sunscreen, and get your spray tan one week before. Get 7-8 hours of sleep per night, and drink water throughout the day.
One day to go: Use a hydration mask for flawless photos, and continue to stay hydrated. Eat antioxidant-rich foods like blueberries, leafy greens, and proteins, and go to bed early in case you have a hard time falling asleep.
The Big Day: Your day-of makeup should include: mascara, brow filler, and under eye brightener to make you look wide awake; lip shine for photos; facial shine control and setting powder for an airbrushed effect; foundation that matches your skin tone and décolleté; and setting spray to make everything last.
No matter what, your skin will look beautiful on your wedding day if you have a huge smile on your face. Enjoy your celebration, and you’ll have a completely natural glow!
