Every bride-to-be wants to look her best on her big day. But all the wedding planning stress and running around can make it difficult to take care of your skin. While brides are chasing vendors and making guest lists, they can often put their beauty treatments and skincare on the backburner. This can lead to dull and tired skin by the time your big day approaches. And that’s a big no-no for any bride. The best way to make sure your skin looks and feel fresh on your wedding day is to plan a pre-bridal beauty regime. From eating well and hydrating to visiting a dermatologist, there are many beauty tips for brides that can help them avoid dull and tired skin.

Here are Some Pre-Wedding Beauty Tips for All the Brides-to-be

Beauty Tips for Brides Before Three Months of Marriage:

Watch What You Eat

Maintaining a healthy diet is the most important tip for any bride. It will not only make sure your skin looks great, but will also keep you healthy and happy. A bride goes through a lot of stress while planning her wedding, and if you’re eating a lot of junk food or missing meals, it will affect your looks and your health in the long run. Everything, from your skin and hair to your figure and your post-marital health, needs a healthy diet. Every woman tends to go through hormonal changes after she’s married and the food you eat will ultimately affect the way your body responds to all the changes.

Make sure you don’t miss any of your meals and the food groups. This is not a time to be on restrictive diets that advice you to miss out on important nutrients. It is also extremely important to increase your liquid intake. Staying hydrated will help your skin, hair and your overall health as well.

Workout or Meditate Regularly

Being a bride-to-be is not an easy feat. Too much to manage, not enough time for self-care and the whirl of emotions that come with a courtship period. All of this is a sure shot recipe for a disturbed mental health. So, you need to find a way to stay grounded and calm yourself at the end of every day. For some it could be physical exercise and for others it could simply be a form of meditation.

Make sure you take some time out for whatever it is that helps you calm your nerves. Your body and mind need to be relaxed and at peace as your big day approaches and physical exercise, Yoga, meditation or any creative hobby can help you achieve that. A relaxed mind will instantly result in a glowing and healthy looking skin and is sure to help you look and feel like a diva on and after your wedding day.

Maintain a Skincare Routine

If you don’t already have a skincare routine that you stick to religiously, stop everything and get to it now. This  is one of the most important beauty tips for brides to be. Having a skincare routine that works for your skin and targets your problem areas is the most important thing when it comes to having a healthy looking skin. Everyone has different skin types and skin problem, like pores, tanning, acne, dark circles etc. You can either visit a dermatologist or do some research and try out different products. It is absolutely essential that a few months prior to the big day you figure out the products and a skincare routine that works best for your skin.

Remember, merely having a skincare routine is not enough. You have to make sure you stick to it and don’t skip it even for a day. Whether it’s the good old CTM or a more nuanced Korean skincare, make sure you decide what’s best for you at least 2 months before the wedding. Do not try any new products closer to the wedding to avoid any unforeseen reactions or allergies. Stick to your most trusted skincare routine and it will prepare your skin well for the big day.

Beauty Tips for Brides Before One Month of Marriage:

Start Going for Your Bridal Package Sittings

If your wedding’s one month away, you surely must have already booked your bridal package and the sessions have probably even begun. If you haven’t booked one already, make sure you customize your bridal package according to your needs and your skin type. These packages come in many different combinations and you can get the salon to customize it as per your needs and even your budget. Going for these sessions is important as they work on your entire body and specifically target your problem areas. Make sure to get your bridal package from your regular salon and not a new one as they also include grooming sessions like waxing Greenwich, threading, bikini wax, body polishing etc. and you don’t need any new experiments when it comes to these procedures.

Bid Adieu to Makeup till your Pre-Wedding Functions

Now as soon as your wedding functions kick start, you will be wearing makeup all day for at least a couple of days, if not weeks. All the pre-wedding dinners and functions mean you’ll be wearing a full face of makeup almost every day. So do your skin a favor and bid adieu to makeup till your functions start. Your skin needs time to breathe and rejuvenate every once in a while and taking a break from makeup before the wedding will make sure you have glowing skin on the big day. Make sure you never go to bed with your makeup on. Going to bed with a clean face will ensure your skin breathes better and has hours to rejuvenate. Do your nighttime skincare routine religiously and always go to bed sans makeup for a healthy skin, not just for the wedding, but also in the longer run.

Stress Less and Get Your Beauty Sleep

Yes, we know you’re the bride and it’s literally impossible to not be stressed. But if there’s one thing that can definitely take a toll on your skin, it’s stress and sleep deprivation. No matter how chaotic planning a wedding can get, you have to go to bed with a peaceful mind. Disturbed sleep and tension can make your skin dull and can definitely be a cause for dark circles. And that’s the last thing we want, right? Instead of stressing over how much work is still left to be done, think about how beautiful you’ll look on the big day and how you’re so lucky to be in love. And of course, a sleeping mask and some soothing tea before hitting the bed are some tricks that can help you maintain a healthy sleep cycle.

Prep Your Tresses For The Big Day

Your hair is an important part your complete wedding look. So don’t forget to take good care of your mane. Getting new hairstyles for all the functions means using a tonne of heat on your hair, which can never be good if you don’t pamper your tresses. Don’t forget to hit the salon for regular hair spa appointments and nourishing treatments before the wedding. Even while washing your hair at home, don’t forget to oil and use hair masks. There are a lot of products available in the market, find the ones that suit your hair type the most and use them regularly for a healthier mane.

It is also a good idea to discuss your hairstyles for the all the functions with your makeup artist prior to the functions. You can even get your hair colored to suit the hairstyles you have in mind. And while you must get a good trim at least two weeks before the wedding, discuss with your makeup artist or your hairstylist about whether you should get a different haircut or not. This will make sure you don’t end up with a surprise look on your big day.

Get a Makeup Trial Prior to The Wedding

You’ve spent months working on your skin and hair and everything’s going super well on your big day. And bam! The worst nightmare of any bride: You hate what your makeup artist is done! Now you’ll spend hours trying to fix your look and ultimately end up being late for your own wedding. Or you could simply avoid all this by getting a makeup trial a few days before your wedding. This will help your makeup artist understand what you need exactly and will prevent any last minute unpleasant surprises. Getting a trial is also important so you can test out all the products beforehand and avoid any sudden allergic outbreaks. Trust us, you will thank us when everything goes smoothly on the most important day of your life.
