My focus is on creating stunning looks that not only photograph beautifully but also hold up well under pressure, which is crucial for your wedding day! However, before diving into wedding makeup, it’s essential to prioritize your wedding skincare. Great makeup always starts with great skin (as I always say!). Planning ahead for your wedding skincare routine is key to achieving that radiant and glowing complexion every bride dreams of. Let me share some valuable tips and must-have products to make achieving gorgeous skin a breeze.
Wedding Skincare: Key Tips
- Start early: Begin your wedding skincare routine at least six months before your big day to allow your skin time to adjust, especially if you’re making changes or incorporating new products. Consulting a skincare expert can help you find the perfect fit for your skin.
- Stay consistent: Once you’ve found a routine that works for you, stick with it and be patient as results may not be immediate.
Cleanse!
- Follow a 3-step cleansing routine in the evening to keep your skin in top condition and prevent breakouts. Cleanse once a day at night, and in the mornings, simply rinse with water and moisturize.
Exfoliate:
- Avoid over-exfoliating to prevent irritation, but a weekly exfoliation can add radiance to your complexion and is a crucial part of your wedding skincare regimen.
Stay Hydrated:
- Drink plenty of water daily (8-10 glasses) to keep your skin hydrated and healthy, especially amidst the wedding planning chaos.
Protect with Sunscreen:
- Shield your skin from UV rays by applying a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 daily, including on your wedding day.
Moisturize:
- Achieve glowing skin on your wedding day by using a pre-wedding face mask.
