How to Prepare Your Skin for Your Wedding?
Your wedding day is one of the most photographed days of your life, and having radiant, glowing skin is the cherry on top of your dream bridal look. If you're getting married this summer, now is the perfect time to focus on your skincare prep to ensure you walk down the aisle feeling confident and camera-ready.
Here’s a bridal skincare countdown to help you prepare your skin like a pro—no stress, no guesswork!
🌞 3–6 Months Before: Build Your Skincare Routine
This is the time to invest in your skin and build a routine tailored to your needs.
✨ Book a Skin Consultation
Visit a professional skincare therapist or aesthetician to assess your skin type, concerns (acne, dullness, pigmentation, etc.), and goals.
🧴 Start a Consistent Routine
Your basic bridal skincare kit should include:
Cleanser (suitable for your skin type)
Exfoliator (gentle, 1–2x per week)
Moisturiser (hydration is key!)
SPF 30+ (every single day—even in the UK)
Serums (like Vitamin C for brightening, Hyaluronic Acid for hydration)
💉 Professional Treatments to Consider
If you have concerns like acne scarring, pigmentation, or texture:
Microneedling
Chemical Peels
Hydrafacials
LED Light Therapy
🌼 1–2 Months Before: Maintain and Refine
By now, your routine should be well established.
💆♀️ Schedule Your Final Facials
Book your final in-clinic facial at least 2 weeks before the wedding—opt for a hydrating, soothing treatment like a HydraFacial or oxygen therapy to boost your glow without risk of irritation.
🚫 Avoid Aggressive Treatments
Now is not the time for first-time peels or new active products. Keep it simple and nourishing.
🥗 Hydrate from the Inside
Drink 2–3 litres of water daily.
Add skin-loving foods to your diet: avocado, berries, nuts, green leafy veg, and oily fish.
🌸 1 Week Before: Final Touches
You’re almost there!
🧖♀️ At-Home Facial
Give yourself a gentle at-home facial with a mild exfoliator and a hydrating sheet mask.
😴 Prioritise Sleep
Aim for 7–8 hours per night. Your skin regenerates while you sleep!
🙅♀️ Avoid...
Alcohol and salty foods (can lead to puffiness and dullness)
Last-minute skincare experiments
💍 1 Day Before: Keep it Simple
Let your skin breathe. Cleanse, moisturise, and use a calming mist or mask if needed. Keep makeup minimal today to let your natural skin shine.
👰 Wedding Day: Glow Time!
Your skin is prepped and primed—now let the makeup artist do their magic. Your healthy, hydrated skin will make the perfect canvas for a flawless bridal look.
Final Thoughts
Preparing your skin for your summer wedding doesn’t need to be overwhelming. With a little consistency, professional guidance, and self-care, you can achieve a bridal glow that matches your joy on the big day.
