Preparing for your wedding day can be an
incredibly stressful time for many ‘brides to be’. To help you out, we have created a series called ‘Bridal Beauty’. ‘Bridal Beauty’ is a series of beauty tips that will help you
to alleviate some of the pressure.
We want you to sit back, relax and enjoy the process of prepping for
your walk down the aisle.
The team at SoCo Events has held the hands of
many brides through the process of creating their bridal beauty regiment and appointments. We are here to share with you
some of our wisdom and best wedding day beauty practices.
We started our series with ‘Bridal Beauty: Hair Tips’. Today, we are going into
the second part of our series with ‘Bridal Beauty: Pre-Wedding Skin Care’. It’s never too soon to start a
healthy skincare regimen.

SKIN CARE TIPS:
·
You definitely want your skin to glow on
your wedding day! The happiness
you are feeling on the inside will shine through and help you out in this
regard, somewhat. ;) You want to make sure to eat “clean” in the months leading
up to you wedding day. What you
put in your body has more of an affect on your skin than any product or
treatment will ever have. By “clean”,
eat plenty of vegetables, fruits and remember drink plenty of water. We like to follow the “8x8 rule”, which
is 8 glasses of 8 oz. of water each day. Adding lemon to your water is a tip I always give my
brides…it works wonders for your skin.

Schedule all tweezing/waxing/threading
appointments for at least 7 days out from your wedding day. Be careful to stay consistent with what
has worked well with your skin type in the past – if soy wax leaves your
sensitive skin with zero redness or irritation, make sure to stick with this
proven method of hair removal. The
last thing you want to do is have a reaction to a new product right before your
wedding.

Six months out from your wedding is a
great time to try a new treatment – microderm, oxygen facials, and collagen
treatments. You have enough time to recover if your skin reacts poorly to a new
or more extensive treatment. If
you love your microderm, you can continue with treatments in the months and
weeks leading to your big day. If you are thinking of trying something a little
more serious, like botox/other fillers – do so around this 6-month out mark as
well. You cannot predict how you will react to new treatments, so do not risk
having to deal with bumps and bruising weeks before your wedding. Keep in mind that most fillers take
around 10 days to work their magic.

One of the most important things you can
do to achieve a beautiful glow on your wedding day, is to get a professional
airbrush tan – for your fiancé (unless he and Ricky Martin are similar skin
tone ;). You don’t want to be
beautifully bronzed standing next to your pasty groom! Spread the color and book a package with
BronzedBerry that covers you both. Make sure to keep a natural color, which
should be easy with BronzedBerry – they have amazing organic formulas – think
no orange and no smell! Your color
should also correlate with the season in which you are tying the knot. It will look much more natural to have
deeper color if your wedding is in July, rather than January. A little color
will work wonders for your confidence on your wedding day. It will ensure you and your soon to be
hubby look fabulous in all the days pictures!
