TIPS FOR RADIANT ON YOUR WEDDING DAY H2Ohhhh! Drink plenty of water to keep impurities away and keep the area around your eyes from becoming too puffy. As a bonus, it will make your skin glow and speed up your metabolism! It’s the easiest way to get ready for any big event.

Sweat It Out When you sweat, your body flushes out all the impurities that are embedded in the dermal layer—from makeup remnants to chemical residues and dirt. By sweating you can improve the tone, clarity, and texture of your skin.

You Are What You Eat The no-brainer side effect of not eating healthily in the weeks before the wedding is the chance that you may not fit into your dress. But that’s only one of the negative consequences. Fried foods, junk food, and sweets will leave you with clogged pores and lessthan-glowing skin.

Professional Facials You’ll want your face to be a perfect canvas for flawless makeup application and picture-perfect smiles. Microdermabrasion, glycolic acid, and other chemical peels exfoliate layers of bad skin and minimize pore surface.

Other Ways to Hydrate Whether your skin type is oily, dry, normal, or some combination, it craves water; so (in addition to drinking enough water) you can snack on naturally hydrating foods such as watermelon, grapefruit, cucumbers, and tomatoes. Also, use cool or lukewarm water to wash your face as hot water can dry your skin. A humidifier and quality skin products are also beneficial. Au Naturel to Detox Your Skin One week (two if you can) before your wedding, don’t wear any makeup (you can use a little blush and eye makeup but keep it minimal) … it may feel uncomfortable but 1) YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL THE WAY YOU ARE! And 2) It is highly beneficial for your skin. Cleanse and moisturize your face nightly. w
