Most brides want to have flawless skin on their wedding day. But if you don’t know what products work best for your skin and how to apply them as part of your skincare regimen, this can be a challenge. Here are five skincare tips for brides.
Eat A Balanced Diet
No products needed for this one! This is not the time to use a crash or fad diet. Instead, just add more fruit, vegetables, and healthy fats into your diet. Wedding planning can be stressful, so be sure to include protein, carbs, healthy fat, and vegetables. Also keep some healthy snacks around for that between meal breaks. Super foods such as avocado, berries, leafy greens, salmon, beans, and even dark chocolate can be added to your diet to help you achieve your wedding day glow.
Treat Yourself to a Professional Facial
A professional facial is an excellent way to keep your skin looking healthy and get recommendations on compatible skincare products. An esthetician can help keep your skin looking fresh while massaging your skin, scalp, neck, and chest, the latter which can get overlooked when doing your home skincare routine. They will also select skin care products that you can add to your home routine.
About six months before your wedding, set-up an appointment schedule for routine skin care, and book your final appointment for one week before your wedding day.
Keep Hydrated
Drinking water will help keep your skin looking smooth and soft for your wedding day. In addition, drinking plenty of water is also good for your overall digestive health. Six to eight glasses of water a day is the recommended amount of water daily.
Use Good Products
Working with your esthetician or other skin care professional, they will recommend quality products that are compatible with your skin type. With so many skincare products on the market, it can be a challenge to know which products are good to use, so use their advice when shopping for your home skin care products.
All natural products are a good way to go so consider them when shopping. However, if your current skin care products are working well then no need to look for alternatives, keep using them. Using quality products will keep your skin looking healthy and hopefully avoid any outbreaks.
Don’t Forget to Exfoliate
Exfoliation is another method to improve the appearance of your skin. According to the American Academy of Dermatology, exfoliation can leave your skin looking brighter and improve the absorption of topical skin care products. Regular exfoliation can also help prevent clogged pores, resulting in fewer breakouts. One note, exfoliation if done wrong can do more harm than good. Be sure to select an exfoliation method that is compatible with your skin type.
