Pre Wedding Skin Care

Pre Wedding Skin Care

You have carefully planned all the details of your wedding from just the right gown to the perfect photographer. But what about skin care? Problem skin can be devastating for anyone especially a bride-to-be. There are solutions from good at-home care to seeking the advice of professionals.
For mild to moderate skin problems, a good home treatment regimen may be the answer. Products should include a cleanser/make-up remover, a gentle facial scrub, toner, and a moisturizer suited to your skin type.
Home treatment may not be enough for moderate to severe skin problems and you may want to consult with a licensed Esthetician or Dermatologist (preferably a referral from a friend). You may even find a Dermatologist who has an Esthetician on staff.
If you opt for professional treatment, I would suggest a consultation before beginning any kind of treatment.

At Home Tips
Blend or process dry oatmeal to a fine powder. Mix with honey to make a paste. Massage into skin. Leave on for 20 minutes. Rinse, tone, moisturize.
Witch hazel is an excellent, inexpensive toner.
Aloe Vera gel is a great mask for dry skin. Apply to skin. Leave on for 20 minutes. Tissue off bulk of gel and massage the rest into skin.

One to Two Weeks Before the Wedding Try To Avoid
Tanning, both natural sunlight and tanning beds.
Aggressive facials or skin care treatments.
Facial waxing including eyebrows.
