Your beauty routine should begin at least three months before your wedding.  Careful planning with your beautician, hairdresser and health professional will ensure that you have clear radiant skin, perfect makeup and hair and optimum health for the important event.

HAIR

As soon as possible decide on the length, shape and style of your wedding hairstyle.  This will allow you to have an early trial with your hairdresser to determine whether the style is right for you.  Remember to take your headpiece and veil to complete your look. 
 Many brides decide to colour or highlight their hair, we suggest al least four months before your wedding day you work with your hairdresser to determine the exact colour you desire.  This will ensure you are happy with the look of your hair and have no unwanted colour surprises.

MAKEUP

Schedule a trial session to ensure you and your makeup artist are happy with the result.  It is a good idea to purchase the same lipstick and powder used by the makeup artist to allow you to touch up your makeup perfectly on the day.
 It is advisable to stick to the makeup brands that suit you and your skin type best.  If you have problem areas such as blemishes, scars or under eye circles, green based concealers work best.

FACE

Consult a skincare professional and work out a routine which best suits your skin.  It is important to cleanse tone and moisturise your skin night and morning.
 A facial is always a must before such a special event.  You should schedule an appointment at least two weeks before the day, allowing any post facial breakouts or redness to disappear.
 Make an appointment to have your brows professionally shaped.  This will add one of the final touches to your wedding day look.

BODY

Once to twice a week you should exfoliate your skin, concentrating on such areas as elbows, knees and feet. Follow up with a deep moisturizer.  Many brides choose to tan before their wedding day.  If you are using a self tanner, remember to experiment well before the event to determine the correct amount required to gain your desired look.  If you are attending a professional tanner.  It is still a good idea to have an application well before the event.  If you do not, you risk the look of unnatural colour or even an allergic reaction.

HANDS & FEET

Schedule a weekly manicure and pedicure either at home or at your beauty salon.  This will not only allow you to have beautiful hands and feet on your wedding day, but will also help you relax during this busy time.
