Are You Wedding-Picture Ready? Getting Your Beauty Regimen Ready for the Big Day

Every bride wants to look her best in her wedding pictures. For many, that means carefully considering a new beauty regimen before the big day. Below are a few tips you can use to get your beauty regimen ready for your wedding pictures.

Skin Care

Most brides want their skin to glow before their wedding pictures are taken, but it's never a good idea to start a new routine right before the wedding. It's recommended that you begin any new skincare regimen at least two weeks before the wedding just in case you have any kind of adverse reaction to the new products. This gives you enough time to give something new a try without having to worry about having angry red blotches on your wedding day.

Laser Hair Removal

Laser hair removal can be a great way to look your best for your wedding pictures without having to worry about the adverse side effects that can come from plucking or waxing. Laser hair removal is a longer process than some think, though, so you'll want to book your first session at least six months before the big day. This will help to ensure that every stray hair is gone before you sit down for your pictures.

Hair Styling

The good news is that hair care routines don't need to be changed up too much for the big day. If you're going to do anything regarding the color of your hair, do it early enough that you can make a change. However, it’s not recommended that you make any drastic changes to length right before the wedding. That's one style change you can't undo if you decide you don’t like it. Instead, work with a stylist ahead of the big day to get some ideas of what your hair could look like and then settle on something before your pictures.

Makeup

The final step in your beauty routine is going to be makeup. It's a good idea to engage the services of a stylist here as well so that you can not only find something that's going to look great with your dress but something that's going to look great in pictures. Experienced stylists who have worked with brides before will always be your best bet, if only because they know what's going to look best on camera.

Your beauty routine before your wedding should be geared towards preserving your natural beauty. Make the big changes early enough that you can catch any problems and look for solutions that will help you to look great in pictures. This should be one of the happiest days of your life, so make sure that you have the photographic memories of your wedding to treasure.
