So, your big day has been marked on the calendar and it seems there are a million things to do before it arrives, least of which is having yourself prepared to look and feel stunning!
Here’s a countdown of the bare essentials to help you put your beauty requirements into the planning.
3-6 months beforehand:
Start thinking about your skin and nails. Having regular monthly facials will make a noticeable difference in your photographs, not to mention your confidence. Facials can not only help clear your skin but also even out skintone, hydrate and anti-age.
If you would like to use your own nails for the Big Day now is a good time to start whipping them into shape. You will need a few months to build up the length and the strength so that you’ll have a full natural set.
1 month to go:
Have your hair and makeup trial performed. While you are talking to your hairdresser get advice on starting conditioning treatments so your hair will be in perfect health. (Lots of brides will try and co-ordinate their trial to be the same day as their final dress fitting so you can really get an idea of the whole finished look)
Have all your waxing done so it will be ready to be re-done just before the wedding leaving you nice and smooth.
1 week countdown:
Have your hair cut and re-coloured.
Why not treat yourself to a massage this week? A detoxifying bodywrap or full body exfoliation? You’ll deserve the pampering after all your hard work and organising!
1-3 days beforehand:
This will be the busiest time for you in terms of all preparation. Make sure you pre-book all of your appointments so you can get the times you want to fit into your schedule.
- Spray tan
- Eyelash tint and eyebrow shape
- All your waxing re-done
- Pedicure
- Manicure or temporary tips
