Are you getting married? Congratulations. And we are in a hurry to tell you how to put your skin in order before the solemn ceremony.
A month before the wedding: a visit to the beautician
Don’t go to the first salon you come across. A trusted professional is needed, especially if there are skin problems that need to be addressed urgently. At the first consultation, the specialist:
conduct an initial inspection;
determine your skin type;
draw conclusions about existing problems;
suggest a solution.
With a high degree of probability, the beautician will recommend peeling course, since this procedure is suitable for solving a variety of problems, such as:

It is possible that before the wedding you will want to inject Botox or fillers. The feasibility of these procedures can only be determined by a cosmetologist. And we remind you: plan absolutely all invasive procedures in advance, do not postpone until the last pre-wedding days. Firstly, the effect of injections will manifest itself in full force only after 10-14 days. Secondly, after “beauty injections”, small hematomas may appear on the skin.
During the peeling course, it is strictly necessary to use products with SPF, even if the weather does not indulge in the sun.
Now check if you cleanse your skin correctly by answering the test questions.
A visit to the salon is not included in your pre-wedding plans? In this case, it is recommended to strengthen and diversify home skin care. Choose from the most suitable options.
Night peeling: contains acids, is applied after washing about an hour and a half before going to bed. Refreshes the skin, refreshes the complexion.
Scrub: applied 1-2 times a week, helps to exfoliate dead epidermal cells, fights skin dullness.
Purifying mask: draws out impurities from the pores, prevents the appearance of black spots and pimples.
Mask with a specific effect (moisturizing, nourishing, tightening) – choose depending on the desired result, apply in strict accordance with the instructions.
In 3 weeks: intense hydration
To achieve the effect of well-groomed, radiant and smooth skin of the face and body in the shortest possible time, focus on moisturizing care.
Sheet masks are useful for the face. They can be used at least every day – due to the high concentration of active components-hydrofixators (hyaluronic acid, aloe extract), they act quickly and effectively.
Having endured the exposure time of the mask, do not rush to remove the remnants from the skin: do a light facial massage, paying special attention to the area around the eyes.
Moisturizing cream, milk or oil are suitable for body care. Apply the product after a shower (it would be good to use a scrub first) on slightly damp skin, moving from the ankles to the knees, hips, waist and above.
For the week: relaxation
Schedule a manicure and pedicure for the last week before your wedding.
It’s time to get a manicure and pedicure, sign up for a beauty salon for facial massage (for example, buccal) and body. Remember: relaxation is now necessary, because unpleasant things happen to the skin on a nervous basis. Such unwanted redness, itching, pimples may appear.
“Don’t panic,” reassures Ekaterina Turubara, medical expert at Vichy. – The situation will be saved by a clay-based mask and SOS acne remedy for local use. Choose a product with a transparent texture: it can be worn throughout the day, even over makeup.
Per day: day spa
The day before the wedding, it would be nice to completely relax.
On the eve of the wedding, you can arrange a home spa program for yourself: relax in a bath with fragrant foam, make a nourishing hair mask, “polish” the skin of the body with a scrub. You can and should make a face mask – moisturizing or tightening.
