We don’t need to tell you how long you’ve been dreaming about your wedding day. You know how special it is, and it’s no wonder you want to look your absolute best from dawn until the honeymoon. To get the flawless skin you deserve, here are some easy steps to follow up until the big day.
Daily Routine
Before we get into the fun stuff, it’s important to establish a daily skincare routine. To achieve a perfect complexion, start as early as possible. Your basic skincare necessities are a gentle cleanser, an exfoliator, and a moisturizer. You can add extra products as you like, but experiment early with anything new and do skin tests on your arm instead of your face in case of unexpected reactions.
Hydrate
Unless it’s already a habit, you could probably benefit from drinking more water. One of the most obvious secrets to a great complexion is what you consume. This means drinking at least eight glasses of water a day to keep your skin hydrated. While you’re at it, cut down on coffee and alcohol in the months leading up to your wedding. They can dehydrate you and leave your skin looking duller and uneven.
Professional Facial
Make an appointment with a professional you trust about a week beforehand. Getting your usual facial and extraction will help give your skin that last boost it needs just before the wedding. It’s important to only go through a process to which your skin is already accustomed, though—anything experimental should happen months beforehand to avoid last-minute surprises. If you have time before the wedding, think about attending a makeup class or consultation to review how you want your wedding day face to look.
Shape Your Brows
Brows frame the face and the right brows can really complement your complexion, so take care of them! If you have brows that could make Cara Delevingne jealous, getting them shaped and trimmed a few days beforehand should be enough maintenance. However, if you would like to fill in some uneven patches or make them thicker, think about getting a more semi-permanent solution like microblading. Microblading can be done as early as possible to make sure you like the results and leave room for any adjustments.
Your big day is a special one, and we want to make sure it’s everything you wanted. These are our sure-fire ways to achieve the perfect complexion for your perfect day.
