Check out our tips below!

Do start a skincare routine at least six months before your wedding day

It’s important to start a skincare routine at least six months before the big day. This gives your skin enough time to adjust to any new products and treatments you may be using. By giving yourself plenty of time, you can ensure that your skin looks radiant and flawless on your wedding day.

A good skincare routine consists of cleansing, exfoliating, and moisturizing. Cleansing helps to remove dirt, oil, and makeup from your skin, while exfoliating sloughs off dead skin cells. Moisturizing replenishes moisture levels and helps to keep your skin hydrated. If you start a skincare routine early, you’ll have plenty of time to experiment with different products and find what works best for your skin.

Exfoliating your skin regularly is an important part of any skincare routine. By removing dead skin cells and other debris, exfoliation helps to keep your skin looking healthy and radiant. In addition, exfoliation can also help to unclog pores and prevent the build-up of excess oil. As a result, regular exfoliation can help to reduce the appearance of acne and other blemishes. There are a variety of ways to exfoliate your skin, including scrubs, peels, and brushes. However, it's important to be gentle when exfoliating, as over-exfoliation can damage the delicate balance of your skin's natural oils. When used properly, exfoliation can be a powerful tool for keeping your skin looking its best.

In addition to a good skincare routine, there are other things you can do to prepare your skin for your wedding day. Drink plenty of water to keep your skin hydrated from the inside out. Eat a healthy diet that includes plenty of fruits and vegetables. And get regular exercise, which will help to improve circulation and give your skin a natural glow. By taking care of yourself in the months leading up to your wedding, you can ensure that you look and feel your best on the big day.

Do find a facialist you trust and stick with them

When it comes to choosing a facialist, it is important to find someone you trust. A good facialist will be able to assess your skin and recommend the best course of treatment. They will also be able to provide advice on how to care for your skin at home. In addition, a facialist can help to identify any underlying skin conditions that may be causing problems. If you find a facialist you trust, stick with them. They will be able to provide you with the best possible care for your skin.

Do use sunscreen every day, even when it's cloudy outside

It's common knowledge that sunscreen is important for protecting your skin from the sun's harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays. But what many people don't realize is that you need to use sunscreen every day, even when it's cloudy outside. Although clouds provide some protection from the sun, they don't block all of UV rays. In fact, up to 80% of the sun's UV rays can penetrate through clouds. This means that you're still at risk of developing skin cancer, even on cloudy days. So make sure to apply sunscreen before you leave the house, and reapply it every few hours for maximum protection. With a little bit of effort, you can help keep your skin healthy and looking its best.

Don't try any new products right before your wedding day

Your wedding day is supposed to be one of the most special days of your life. Everything from your dress to your hair and makeup should reflect how beautiful you are, inside and out. That's why it's important to not try any new products right before your wedding day. While you might be tempted to try that new face cream or bottle of shampoo that you just bought, there's always the risk that it will cause an allergic reaction or break you out in a rash. The last thing you want on your big day is a red, blotchy face! Stick to using the same products that you know work for you and save any experimentation for after the wedding. Your skin will thank you for it!

Don'ts for tanning:

Tanning beds are a big no-no for brides. Not only does it increase your risk of skin cancer, but it can also lead to premature aging and uneven pigmentation. We recommend avoiding self-tanners as well, as they can often leave your skin looking unnatural, blotchy, and orange. If you want a sun-kissed look for your wedding day, please go to a professional spray tanner. Not only is it safer than tanning beds, but they will also provide you with a more natural and even result. With the right products and preparation, you can have beautiful, glowing skin for your big day that won't damage your skin in the long run. 

Don't neglect your lips - make sure to moisturize and protect them from the sun!

Many people take great care of their faces, but neglect their lips. Your lips are just as susceptible to damage from the sun and wind as the rest of your skin, so it's important to protect them with a lip balm that contains SPF. In addition, lips can become dry and chapped, especially in the winter months. Be sure to keep them moisturized with a hydrating lip balm. Regular exfoliation will also help to keep your lips soft and smooth. By taking care of your lips, you can help to prevent premature aging and maintain a healthy, youthful appearance.

Your wedding day is one of the most important days of your life, so you want to look and feel your best. By starting a skincare routine at least six months in advance, finding a facialist you trust, and using sunscreen every day, you can help ensure that your skin looks gorgeous on your big day. Additionally, don't forget to take precautions when to comes to the glowing bridal look and take care of your lips by moisturizing them and protecting them from the sun. And finally, avoid trying any new products right before the wedding - stick with what you know works for you!
