Your wedding day is one of the most special and photographed days of your life, and naturally, you want to look and feel your best. To ensure everything goes smoothly, it’s important to plan ahead and be mindful of the beauty choices you make leading up to the big day. Here are some key wedding beauty preparation tips to keep you glowing, confident, and stress-free.
Avoid Trying New Wedding Beauty Products & Looks Too Close to Your Wedding
It’s tempting to experiment with new skincare products, hair treatments, or even a bold new makeup look when prepping for your wedding beauty look. But, it’s best to stick with what you know works for you. Your skin may react unpredictably to new products, or your hair might not hold up as expected with a fresh cut or color. If you do want to make changes, allow plenty of time beforehand to adjust and consult with your beauty professionals for guidance.
Opt for a Hair and Makeup Trial
A trial session with your hair and makeup artists is an absolute must. Many beauty vendors offer trials to experiment with different hairstyles and makeup looks, helping you finalize your vision. What you originally envisioned might not suit your hair type, face shape, or overall wedding aesthetic. Having a trial will save you time, reduce stress, and ensure that your wedding day look is exactly as you imagined.
Schedule a Practice Spray Tan
Just as you would schedule a hair and makeup trial, a spray tan test run is a smart move. A trial will allow you to gauge the right shade for your skin tone and avoid any last-minute surprises. Consider using a pre-wedding event, such as your bridal shower or bachelorette party, as the perfect occasion to test your tan before committing to it for your wedding day.
Prioritize Hydration, Nutrition, and Rest
With all the wedding excitement, it’s easy to neglect basic self-care as part of your wedding beauty prep. Staying hydrated, eating well, and getting enough rest are crucial. Drinking plenty of water and nourishing your body with healthy foods will help your skin glow naturally. Also, ensure you get a good night’s sleep before your wedding. Rest in your own comfy bed rather than staying up late celebrating. You’ll thank yourself when you wake up refreshed and radiant! We share more tips on what to eat leading up to your wedding here.
Have Touchup Essentials Handy
Even with the best preparations, touchups will likely be needed throughout the day. Keep essential products like lipstick, blotting papers, powder, and bobby pins within reach. Assign a bridesmaid or close friend to be in charge of your touchups. That way, you can focus on enjoying every moment.
