Wedding : how to prepare your skin for the most beautiful make-up

If taking care of one's skin is important on a daily -basis, cares become more essentials as you start to prepare yourself for your wedding day. If you didn't really take care of your skin before, here you'll find some advice on how to get a skin as soft as a baby's.  

You should start to take care of your skin four weeks before the wedding. You can use different types of cares - cleaning, purifying, scrubbing, moisturising- that are more efficient when they are used together and that, in a beauty salon, will allow you to relax. Most of all, don't hesitate to ask your aesthetician, in stead of acting as an expert, if you have skin imperfections like redness, spots, or other black spots !

It is also best to watch your food hygiene several months before the wedding. Stop eating sweet or fat food because neither your skin nor your body likes it. Favour fruits, vegetables and fish, and don't forget to drink a bottle of water on a daily-basis, because it helps to moisturise your skin in depth.

If you follow that program, the odds will be in your favour to look well and to optimize your dress with your make-up !

Regarding the make-up itself, entrust it to professionals. An aesthetician or a make-up artist.
