The Bridal Skincare Guide

Congratulations on your Wedding.... It's your time to wear the title 'Bride-to-Be.'

 

Being a Makeup Artist for 8 years, I feel as though I understand the intense pressure placed on brides for everything, and I mean everything to be nothing short of perfect on that extremely special day.

 

This obligation extends beyond the traditional wedding tropes - a lot of it centres around looking your best. There's a widely adopted belief that on your Wedding Day, you are to show up as the most beautiful version of yourself. This pressure explains why so many brides panic during their search for pre-wedding skin care so their makeup sits & looks flawless on the actual big day.

 

All this to say, the first and perhaps most crucial step in preparing your skin is managing your expectations. It is, of course, completely valid to want to feel beautiful and confident on your wedding day, but your skin will always have texture and pores. Accepting that, first and foremost, will make creating an efficacious and realistic skin-care plan a whole lot easier.

 

So as opposed to binge-purchasing every product in sight, take some time to evaluate what exactly you want out of your skin care.

 

Keeping track of the timeline leading up to your wedding is also a crucial aspect of creating a pre-wedding skincare plan. You want the benefits of all your products and treatments, while making sure none of the possible negative side effects pop up on the big day.
