A good healthy glowing face is more vital than having the best makeup on your big day.
That’s actually true on a given day!
Makeup is the painting and your skin is like the canvas that the painting will hold on to.
Luckily kickstarting a skincare routine could be very simple, easy and fun!
6 to 12 months prior to your big day

Weekly: Mask treatment
2. Feed your body with H20
Your skin is your body’s largest organ and requires plenty of water to properly function and look its best.
Plan on drinking half your body weight in ounces of water to get the right amount for you.
A bride weighing 150 pounds should drink 75 ounces of water a day, for example.

Do not introduce any new products to your skin care regimen.
That product you thought would magically whisk away wrinkles and a rogue pimple might actually make them worse!
Within 10 days of your wedding
Call it a day with waxing.
Waxing can irritate the skin, causing breakouts, something that’s easy to understand.
But, a hidden risk to waxing is removing all of those baby fine hairs you don’t typically see, which can create an uneven look to your foundation.

Things will be fun but hectic and you may get a breakout.
RELAX! Because stress will only make it worse.
