Getting Your Skin Ready for Wedding Season
The best way to prep your skin for wedding season is to give yourself plenty of time and by starting as early as possible. Whether you’re the one walking down the aisle in white, the honorary maid of honor, or if you’re simply a guest, now is the time to start considering your skincare routine to ensure your complexion is picture perfect and ready for the big day.
For Brides – Looking Your Most Gorgeous on Your Big Day
Any bride will tell you that looking completely flawless on their wedding day is top priority. After all, your wedding day is where all eyes and all camera lenses are on you. Ideally, the best time to start prepping your skin is at least 6 months out, and the first step is scheduling a consultation with our Medspa.
Keep your skin free of brown spots, wrinkles, large pores and redness with the help of these top bridal treatments to tame and target these issues and reveal nothing but youthful, perfect skin on your wedding day:
Microdermabrasion
Gently removes outer layers of dead skin cells to stimulate new growth and refresh your skin. A series of treatments will yield best results, and can also be performed on your chest, shoulders, or back if you have a strapless wedding gown.
IPL Treatments
A series of IPL treatments will clear up sun damage and brown spots on your skin, leaving behind an overall natural glow.
Laser Hair Removal
Feeling completely confident on your wedding day is a must, and laser hair removal treatments can eliminate dark unsightly body hair leaving behind a smooth surface that’s silky to the touch. Laser treatments will get rid of treated hair for good in treatment areas, making a perfect transition from wedding, to honeymoon!
For Bridesmaids – Putting Your Best Complexion Forward
When you think about being photographed (at least 500 times) on the wedding day, is there anything about your skin that you’re dreading having captured on film? The clearer and healthier your skin is on your besties big day, the more comfortable you’ll be – and the happier you’ll look in all those photos.
You’ll be spending a lot of time before the wedding helping out the bride, but don’t forget to tend to give yourself some TLC, too. Planning ahead is always a good idea – consider a facial or a peel, but never get one immediately before the big day in case you’re still healing or have a reaction. Consult with a member of our team before trying out a new skin regimen!
Planning the perfect makeup look
Don’t expect to achieve a flawless makeup look the morning of the wedding without a little practice. Nobody knows what types of makeup looks work best for your face quite like you do, which is why DIY wedding makeup is becoming increasingly more popular.
When it comes to creating your own makeup look for a special event:
- Keep your look natural, while bringing out your best features without looking too obvious. You want the makeup to show up in wedding pictures and on any video, but keep it natural enough so you’re not upstaging the bride.
- The internet is your friend when it comes to tips and tricks on DIY makeup looks. One quick search of YouTube will have your screen flooding with DIY bloggers who share their secrets on achieving a great look yourself.
- Head to a department store for a trial run. Makeup counters have hired employees who can help you find the perfect products for your complexion and can help you pick out the correct shade of foundation and lipstick for your skin.
For Guests – Feeling Confident and Clear-Skinned
Just because you’re not the one walking down the aisle – or even in the bridal party – doesn’t mean you can’t use a wedding as a perfect excuse for a little extra self-care. Weddings can often be a time of reunion where you see old classmates or friends, and leaving a good impression is a must.
Spring for a facial, but schedule early enough that there’s zero chance of triggering a breakout right before the big event.
No matter if you’re the bride, in the wedding party, or simply your name to the guest book, a little prepping for wedding season is always a must and Radiance Skincare & Laser Medspa will have you feeling your absolute best for the big day!
