After the engagement party is all done, and you’ve had your fun, next comes making sure you look absolutely radiant for your big wedding day. Yes, brides-to-be do need to take proper care of their skin since all eyes that day will be on you.
Not to put pressure, but the fact stands – the invitations, seating arrangement, and the wedding dress are not the only things that require your focus. Your to-do list goes further than planning the party – you need to plan your beauty regimen and stick to it through the weeks leading up to the wedding. As a bonus, you will have quality time for yourself, pampering, and de-stressing from other wedding-related tasks. This one is for you, your beauty and your self-care. Enjoy!
Regardless of the products and tips, you start going through; nothing will work if you don’t manage your stress right. Just ask beautiful south Asian brides, or European, American… it doesn’t matter. Each and every bride that has been where you are will tell you that stress is your biggest enemy. It can harm your health and your looks at the same time. Why risk it, right?
When it comes to your skin, there are various different skin-related conditions that appear as a consequence of constant stress. Inflammation, eczema, keratosis pilaris, and even psoriasis are partially influenced by stress. Your immune system will be affected, and as a result, you will have to fight health conditions the entire period prior to your big day.
The solution? Quite simple, actually – relax. Take a yoga class, meditate, or find a different hobby or activity that does the trick for you. Regardless of your choice, make sure it does you good.
Great looking and healthy skin requires time and work. That is why you need to start your beauty regimen six months before the wedding. If you can afford it, of course. If not, try to take proper care at least a few weeks, so that real results can be visible.
And once you make the time, you should find a trusted professional to help you in the process. Even if your skin is already flawless (lucky you) you still need to ensure it stays that way. That is when facials come in handy. Just state your goals and expectations clearly to the aesthetician and do speak up if you have doubts about the treatments. And lastly, don’t overdo it. Don’t risk it with the aesthetician, and don’t do more treatments than you really need. Flare-ups are an issue too, and they can appear if something goes wrong with the facial.
Many women, including brides-to-be, don’t really get that proper body skincare habits start in the shower. Get a high-quality cleansing product that is gentle on your skin. This product will make your skin feel soft, smooth, and silky only after one use.
After you are done in the bathroom, dry out your skin by patting it and apply lotion a few minutes after showering. And be mindful, this routine is great for your whole body – from head to toes. Dry skin is itchy, red, and cracked — not a great look for your wedding day, or for any day for that matter.
There are two reasons why this part of your body needs special care. First, it is a sun-magnet, making it prone to wrinkles and thin skin. You have probably already noticed that the neck and chest skin area is quite different from the rest of the body. It has less fat padding, and it is significantly more delicate. Talk to your dermatologist and follow the instructions carefully.
