Beauty Checklist – Part 3
We’re almost there! I hope you’ve been loving our beauty tip series over the last few weeks (refresh yourself with Part 1 and Part 2). Below are the final steps to getting yourself all fabulous for your big day!
2 Weeks To Go
No more deep-cleansing facials or big beauty treatments for you. Your skin should be in tip-top shape at this point thanks to months of pampering. Now is not the time to test out any new cosmetics or cleansers either.
If you color your hair regularly, go for a touch-up two weeks before your wedding day. Remember, this is not the time to try a new hair color!
Hit the gym or running track for a half-hour of cardio, a known tension-buster. For an extra calorie burn, do intervals. (Translation: Speed up, slow down, speed up.)
1 Week
Stay calm. As the days until your wedding count down, remember to go easy on the caffeine, sodium and alcohol. Your body is in top shape, just one boozy all-nighter or fast food binge could undo all of your hard work.
Confirm your pre-wedding appointments for both you and your bridal party – hair, makeup, manicure and pedicure.
Wedding stress getting to you? Practice deep breathing, pop in a yoga DVD, or slip on a set of headphones and zone-out to a meditation CD or ocean waves soundtrack. Ahhh, insta-bliss.
1 Day
Time for mani/pedis with your bridal party! Indulge in one (small!) glass of Champagne and enjoy being pampered.
Slip into a relaxing, lavender-laced bath and soak. Now channel that mindset on your big day. Beautiful!
