How to: Get Wedding Season Ready!



Are you "Wedding Season Ready”!?

Get the look you love with healthy makeup and effective skincare that leaves your skin clear, smooth and radiant, now and forever.

 

We all want to look our best at weddings, whether we are the bride, in the wedding party, or just a guest! Here are some of our favorite products, tips, and treatments to get your skin glowing, hydrated, and naturally beautiful!




 
Pay attention to your skin care regime now to see the effects by your wedding day. Skin Accumax® is a scientifically advanced nutritional supplement. It works from within for clear, flawless skin naturally. It takes up to 14 weeks to see full results, so incorporate this into your home-care early.


Getting regular facial treatments is the best way to boost your home-care regime. Getting a facial at least once a month grants you the perfect opportunity to get a break from all the planning and stress that wedding planning brings. One of our very own estheticians can testify to the effectiveness of a series of Glycolic Peels. The stress from wedding planning threw her hormones off balance and it took a toll on her skin (even while on a diligent home-care regime). She decided to do a series of 6 Glycolic peels, once a week, 6 weeks prior to her wedding day. The proof is in the pictures, her skin never looked better!


This is also the best time to find and plan the makeup look that feels like "the one.” Once you find THE dress, you pretty much get a vision of how you want your accessories and make-up to compliment it. Stop by the Make-up Studio during our boutique hours and one of our make-up experts can dialog with you and figure out how your make-up can help you feel joyful, radiant and beautiful –aka: the bride you were meant to be!

 

 Book your make-up artist. You want to book your make-up artist for your wedding date as soon as possible (we recommend 3 months before). This way you have time to do a trial run and their availability is more guaranteed. This is a great opportunity for you and your make-up artist to figure out the perfect pallet for your face.




Here are some things you can do at home to prepare your skin: from sunless tanning options, to hydration techniques, and blemish control:


-Too-tanned skin looks muddy in pictures. To achieve healthy, customized color, begin using Tantasia (our sunless tanner & bronzer) about a week before the wedding. You should see full results in about three days, and you'll still have time to adjust before the big day. We also offer a wide range of bronzing products, and there is the option of customizing to your desired shade! We recommend visiting the Make-up studio to find the perfect bronzer for your skin type.


-Love your lips through kisses, cake and champagne with the Sugar & Butter lip exfoliator/plumper. Exfoliate and nourish to prep those lips for bridal bliss.


-Quench your skin. Smooth Affair is so much more than a makeup primer. Algae extract firms the skin, and prevents moisture loss; use it for extra hydration before your daily makeup application and after you wash your face at night. 


-Zap & Hide Blemish Concealer pleasantly and effectively zaps your blemishes and hides them too! It has a double-ended blemish treatment stick that conceals while it heals. The “Blemish Balm” is a clear stick containing beneficial antiseptic botanicals that zaps the blemish, while the “Blemish Concealer” is highly pigmented, easily layered and creamy for perfect coverage. This is the answer to those annoying pimples that pop up out of nowhere the morning of your big event! It is gentle enough to be used as often as needed.


What about those of us who love that luminous glow, but struggle with oily or “shiny” looking skin throughout the day?  

Here are some hydrating, oil-controlling and pH-balancing products that help minimize the shine:

  
-The all-natural Face Blotting Papers are made from organic flax seed, which is more absorbent than rice and linen. They rid skin of excess oil for a shine-free finish, without taking off your make-up! 


-The Absense Oil-control Primer reduces sebaceous hyper secretion with Hydrated Silica and also helps to regulate the pH balance of the skin; however, it does not affect the skin’s moisture, only the oil. The interaction of oil and makeup is one of the principal causes of color change. Absense also smooths the appearance of pores and fine lines, calms and soothes the skin and reduces redness.

-Lastly, the Beyond Matte HD mattyifing powder comes in 4 different shades. It is ultra-water resistant, sensitive-skin appropriate, and HDTV approved! The proprietary technology eliminates shine, lessens transference, refines pores and gives skin a flawless, smooth appearance.
