6 months before...
...Make a trip to your spa, and get a good facial to address any
problem areas that you would want cleared up 6 months from now.
Continue to get facials every 2-3 months. The last facial you have
should be about 1 week before your big day.
...If you are not already on a good skincare regiment that works for
you, I recommend starting one for day and night. Your esthetician
will recommend the proper products for your skin type.
The week before...
...Get your brows professionally shaped. This is a very important
details that should not be overlooked. Your brows are the frames of
your face and they can make or break your desired look. A nicely
shaped brow will give you an instant face lift!
...Get your upper lip waxed. Although it may not be noticeable in
person, upper lip hair can become very apparent in professional
photos, and no amount of makeup will cover it.
The day before...
...Exfoliate your face with a gentle scrub to loosen any dull, flakey
cells that may clutter the surface of your skin.
...Apply a facial mask the caters to your skin's needs (for example, a
hydrating mask if you have dry skin or a clay mask for oily skin).
These 2 steps will ensure that you have a great base for a flawless
makeup application on your special day.
...Also, tweeze any stray brow hairs the day before so any
redness/swelling will have time to go down.
The day of...
...Before your appointment, cleanse your skin and apply your usual
daytime moisturizer.
...Relax and enjoy being pampered!

Do's and Don't's
- Don't go tanning within a week
of your wedding. A fresh tan
will show up as redness in
your photos. - Don't start using new skincare
products a few days before
your wedding. You never
would want to risk breaking
out or having an allergic
reaction. - Don't neglect your skincare
routine preceding the
wedding. If your skin hasn't
been exfoliated or moisturized,
your makeup may not look as
nice as it could.
- Do book a consultation/trial
ahead of time to make sure
you don't react to any products
that will be used on your
wedding day. - Do get all recommended
waxing done (brows/upper
lip). Trust me, it will make the
world of a difference in your
photos.
