f you’re a bride-to-be, you don’t have time to waste on skin products that may not work. You want a fool-proof routine that guarantees clear skin in time for your wedding photos. Here it is! Good news: There is a plan for your specific skin to prevent breakouts before and on your big day. Much like planning your wedding, it will be a time commitment that requires consistency and a little professional help. And the sooner you start planning, the better the outcome. Here’s what you should consider when planning for beautiful skin on your wedding day. CONSULT AN ESTHETICIAN EARLY IN YOUR WEDDING PLANNING. Don’t go at it alone, especially if you have a history of skin challenges like acne or eczema. The stress of planning a wedding can make things worse, and some factors that trigger skin blemishes are beyond the control of most skincare products. An esthetician can quickly isolate the root cause of your skin challenges and create a plan specific to your skin’s needs — saving you the guesswork.
