Tips and Advice for looking beautiful on your wedding day
By Josie Vega, Professional Beauty Consultant

First, start from the inside out. You need to pay attention to your diet, water consumption, and stress level in the months before your wedding.

It’s also time to swear off fast food, fried foods, and anything processed. The fewer impurities we consume, the fewer impurities need to be flushed out through your pores.

Your diet should focus on vegetables, fruits, whole grains, and lean protein. Avoid fad diets.

If you want to lose a little weight, do so reasonably through smaller portions (or just cutting out dessert) and increased physical activity.

Also, drink at least 8 eight-ounce glasses of water per day, hydrated skin is healthy, luminous skin (soda, coffee, and other caffeine-laden beverages don’t count – they rob your skin of moisture instead of replacing it).

Apart from any facials you may have, it is also important to set up a routine of skin care. Cleansing, toning and moisturizing and the occasional exfoliation treatment are the key to keeping your skin in tiptop condition

If you are getting facials make sure the last one is at least two weeks before your wedding. Deep facial massage and manipulation can cause redness and bumps that may not go away in time for your wedding day.

At your initial consultation, your makeup artist should first discuss with you any skin issues you may have. He/She should also find out if you have any allergies to products or chemicals that you are aware of.

Lastly, you MUST stop visiting the tanning bed and/or getting too much natural sun during the summer. Over-exposed skin looks grainy and unevenly pigmented. Looking good requires you to feel good. Taking the time to exercise, following good eating practices, and drinking lots of water will help you and your skin look and feel great.
