Just because there are a million things to plan for your big day doesn't mean
you can ignore your beauty routine or put off starting one. Dealing with bad
skin, broken nails and brittle hair the day of your wedding can be a nightmare.
Bridal beauty tips from the professionals
Professional salons recommend beginning your beauty program 6 months
in advance. Here are their 10 ways to be sure you look your best.
Set your
beauty budget. Look for special bridal packages offered by salons and
spas.
Book necessary appointments well in advance.
A
good hairstylist is worth
his/her weight in gold.
Discuss the type of cut and color that will best suit your face and hair,
and keep it in mind when you buy your wedding
veil or wedding
tiara.
If you're considering a chemical process like a perm or color, have it
done now so you can see if you like it.
Start using a nail strengthening treatment now. It's also a good time
to lose nasty nail habits like biting and polish-peeling!
Begin a skin-care regimen. Consider consulting
a dermatologist or aesthetician to help you clear up any persistent problems
and get a recommended program for your skin type.
Start waxing legs. Repeated waxing actually thins hair growth.
Begin a fitness routine emphasizing a low-fat diet and plenty of exercise.
Remember that extreme weight changes can wreak havoc on your looks and
health, so this probably isn't the time for drastic dieting.
The Last Word
Your beauty routine should also focus on your "inner glow". Take
time to deal with stress and anxiety with massage, yoga, or a soak in the
tub. When you relax and recharge, you will shine inside and out on
your wedding day!
