Stepping Into Skincare<\/h5>\n

Jumping into retinoids and heavy products as a first-timer can seem daunting, so we asked Houston makeup artists for advice and tips to share with brides. Planning a wedding takes up a lot of time, and brides often find themselves searching for relaxation. Luckily, professional makeup artists like Samantha from Polished Makeup & Hair<\/a> recommend “getting facials for your specific skin type in the months or weeks leading up to your wedding day.” Who wouldn’t want endless facials?<\/p>\n

When prepping your skin for wedding day, Lauren from PURE Makeup & Hair<\/a> suggests, “brides should ideally start prepping their skin about 6 to 12 months before their wedding day. This time frame allows for a comprehensive skincare routine to effectively achieve the skin of your bridal dreams.” Brides need all the preparation in advance to ensure the big day is a breeze. “At least 6 months before the wedding day allows enough time to address any skin concerns, establish a consistent routine, and achieve optimal results,” Jessica from Bridal Beauty Tribe<\/a>\u00a0says.<\/p>\n

Leading up to the big day, your prep should ideally include an exfoliator, moisturizer, and sunscreen. Lauren from PURE Makeup & Hair suggests, “See a great esthetician to choose a treatment that targets your problem areas.”<\/p>\n

Long Lasting Skincare For The Big Day<\/h5>\n

Preparing for a look to last all night through all the smiling, dancing, and emotional speeches is needed, which is why prepping the skin and working with your makeup artist is key. First, “find a gentle exfoliator that helps to gently remove skin cells, promoting a smooth texture for flawless makeup application,” Lauren from PURE Makeup & Hair says. Always use a primer before makeup and a setting spray after makeup application, ensuring your look stays intact all night! Products to consider for a long-lasting wedding day look are “Embryolisse Lait Creme, Sonia Roselli Water Balm, and Charlotte Tilbury Magic Cream,” Samantha from Polished Makeup & Hair shares.<\/p>\n

Creating a Standout Makeup Look<\/h5>\n

Your entire day will inevitably be photographed, so looking fabulous is a top priority. Of course, makeup trials and finding products that fit you are great, but there are a couple of to-do’s before the magic happens. “Ensuring the bride’s skin looks radiant and the makeup stays flawless all day starts with light exfoliation and lots of hydration,” Lauren PURE Makeup & Hair says. Based on which season your wedding falls under, taking into consideration the types of lighting and where you’ll be taking your photos is important. Polished Makeup & Hair specializes in “radiant airbrush makeup looks incorporated with skincare products to keep makeup lasting all day and night through humidity and sweat,” Samantha says.<\/p>\n

Jessica from Bridal Beauty Tribe shares, “For a bride just getting into skincare, I would recommend starting with a gentle cleanser like CeraVe, a hydrating moisturizer, and a broad-spectrum SPF. Adding a serum with hyaluronic acid for extra hydration and a gentle exfoliator will help keep the skin glowing.” Waterproof products, a perfect match foundation, and keeping your wedding day lippie on hand are a few more tips to ensure a long-lasting makeup look. “Lastly, don’t forget to take care of your lips! Regular exfoliation and hydration will ensure your lipstick looks flawless and stays put on the big day,” Jessica from Bridal Beauty Tribe says. “A must-have is a good lip exfoliator; my favorite is The Lip Polish by La Mer,” she shares.<\/p>\n

Advice From The Experts<\/h5>\n

Whatever you do, always take care of your skin. “Don’t neglect your neck and hands. Also, icing your face can help reduce puffiness, shrink pores, and improve circulation, giving your skin a fresh and rejuvenated appearance,” Lauren from PURE Makeup & Hair says. When it comes to sunscreen, Samantha from Polished Makeup & Hair abides by a “no sunscreen on your wedding day” rule to avoid any flashbacks in photographs.<\/p>\n

Consider A Spray Tan<\/h5>\n

Consider balancing your look with a glowing spray tan, which will make you look extra radiant in a wedding gown. Houston tanning experts\u00a0recommend getting a spray tan two days before the big day, giving the tan just enough time to develop and last through all the exciting chaos. “Make sure to get all your other beauty services like nails, waxing, shaving, and facials done at least a day before your spray tan appointment,” Jacque from Honey Hue Tans<\/a>\u00a0says.<\/p>\n

Nothing says beautiful bride<\/em> like a glistening queen walking down the aisle. To ensure you have an even tan, Jessica from goGLOW<\/a>\u00a0recommends “using an exfoliating glove or mitt (not a scrub product<\/em><\/strong>) and exfoliating your entire body head to toe. Pay special attention to dry areas like feet, knees, elbows, neck, underarms, and back of arms.”<\/p>\n

As you prepare for your wedding day, remember that every detail of your beauty regime is a step towards creating that show-stopping look you’ve always dreamed of. From beginning your skincare routine to that final makeup look, every step helps set the stage for your big day. Remember, glowing skin doesn’t happen overnight. “Sometimes, people expect quick results, but consistency is key to seeing real improvements,” Jessica from Bridal Beauty Tribe says. So, enjoy the process, and get ready to dazzle as you walk down the aisle because it’s your moment to shine!<\/p>\n
