The big day you have been waiting for all your life is finally going to be here. Special days like these call for special arrangements. Despite having the perfect venue, food menu, and outfit, it is every woman’s desire to look flawless and radiant!
While make-up can work wonders, it is the real glow of the bride that makes her shine bright. Of course, the big day makes your face glow, but add to it a special skincare regimen.
Diet and Workout

It is funny that the first tip to this bridal skincare regimen is not related to skincare products but to the habits that most definitely impact skin. Eat a balanced diet because the skin health is proportional to what you eat. When we say diet, it doesn’t mean in terms of weight loss. Reduce the intake of sugars, carbs, trans oil food like chips, aerated drinks and replace them with high fiber foods like vegetables, green smoothies, fruits and the right amount of proteins. This would help feed not just your belly but the skin too.
Adopt a form of workout that you love. You can opt for non-traditional options like pilates, beach cleaning, hooping, play fit circuits etc. This would help to keep you enthused, at the same time work on improving your blood circulation and make you sweat, thereby, detoxing the skin off impurities.

Trust us when we say ‘sleep is everything’! The importance of a good eight-hour sleep has never been undermined by skin scientists. The skin repairs, regenerates and revives itself when you sleep. A good night care routine helps lock in skin moisture and builds collagen.

Stick to the Basics

It may sound intimidating but refrain from indulging into complex skincare routines. A lot of ‘brides-to-be’ experiment with their skin in this crucial time which may be a hit or miss. New products can surprise your skin and may cause skin-purging (a sudden & violent rejection of new products by your skin in the form of acne/ rashes etc.).
Stick to the traditional CTM routine - something that always gets on well with every skin. Also include exfoliation and masking in your weekly skincare routine, depending on your skin type.

Moisturisation Is The Key

One of the most underrated skincare steps is moisturisation, especially among those with oily skin. Most of us try to skip moisturisers thinking it’s not required. On the contrary, moisturisers help create a barrier and help to delay all sorts of skin problems. The catch is to find the right product according to the skin type.

Take a break with a spa or body massage session, a book with a cup of hot chocolate or something as simple as good music! You are better at identifying what helps you the best to unwind.
