Four months Before Wedding

As a professional, I want you, the bride-to-be, to create your lasting wedding memories by looking sensational on your wedding day. As we know, it is not just a matter of finding a great dress and getting a gorgeous up-do. It comes from mapping out a beauty regimen that not only makes you look the best you can, but makes you feel relaxed and confident as well. Four months is not too early to start paying serious attention to your skin. By giving yourself enough time, you can obtain that radiant appearance so many brides are looking for. I recommend having a facial once a month for the next consecutive months, which is the key if you want to have that glowing, almost air brushed look on your wedding day. Once your beauty plan is in place, maintenance at home by using a daily cleansing and toning regime is essential. Many of the effective new products include vitamins that restore the skin while helping to remove toxins and skin breakouts. Start preparing, caring and pampering your skin as early as possible for your Special Day.

Keep in mind that not all facials are created equal. Some are designed especially for those with extra-sensitive skin, and some are geared to repair damaged or acne prone skin. I will help you to determine what will work best for you. Be sure to let me know if you have any allergies or are taking any medications. For skin that may need a little more help, you may want to consider more advance treatments, a gentle and safe form of facial rejuvenation using treatments procedures that tightens jowls and neck, reduces pores, improves complexion tone and color, and reduces the appearance of puffy eyes. Also essential, yet often overlooked, is back facial treatment, for that beautiful low back cut gown, especially for anyone with blemished skin problem or dryness of the back. As with regular facials, you should schedule your back facial before the wedding as well. A good way to relieve wedding worries would be by lavishing in luxurious treatments while enjoying your wedding preparations. What a great way to feel more beautiful and relaxed on your wedding day!

Three months Before Wedding

Your wedding ring will show up in many wedding photographs, so beautifully manicured hands are essential. To get them in top form for the wedding weekend, I recommend getting a manicure every other week and a pedicure about once a month or at least every six weeks. Manicure and pedicure performed on a regular basis will give you better results. Natural looking nails or French manicures look the best and blend well with a white or off–white gown.

This is also a good time to re-evaluate your eyebrows, lips, legs, underarms and bikini areas or any unwanted hair rather than fuss with it yourself, avoid the risk of over plucking, have them professionally shaped. I suggest to start about three months before the wedding, especially if the bride has sensitive skin. If you’ve been waxing right along, have your last waxing several days before the wedding and honeymoon.

One day to two days Before the Wedding

Time for your last facial, waxing, manicure and pedicure. Relax and enjoy yourself. Drink lots of water, don't forget to have your beauty sleep (you’ll need it) and remember to celebrate your life.
