Beauty Wedding Countdown part 2 - The Final Month

Hello Brides to be and thank you for coming back to part two of my beauty bridal countdown!!

For part one of the beauty bridal count down click here

1 Month Recap

A quick recap on 1 month from the 1st part of the blog.
-Try out your fake tan and see how it sits on your skin and how long it lasts for you so you can trial it for the big day
- Keep up your in salon beauty treatments e.g. manicures, pedicures and facials and continue with your home care like CTM every day and using hand cream
-Keep body brushing and slathering yourself in body lotion



Hair Treatments
Im adding in a new one for the month countdown also! Its a great idea to start getting a weekly hair treatment, whether its a nourishing mask or an Indian head massage. Very relaxing and works wonders for your hair!!

3 Weeks Till The Big Day

This is the time that you need to be 100% sure about your hair and make-up looks for the day. Look over the pictures you took at the trial just to be safe. If you decide to have a re-trial to try out new looks, or even just the same look so you can put on your dress and see it all together now is the time to do it!




2 Weeks Till The Big Day

Skin
Be so careful with your skin, dont try any new skin care products at all in this time to avoid reactions. Just stick to your faves that you know and have used plenty of times before. Dont over exfoliate and remember to use your moisturiser every day.
Pay particular attention to removing your make up at night, or even try going for a few days without make up so your skin is in tip top condition for walking down the isle. Also keep drinking plenty of water to hydrate your skin!!

Hair
With two weeks to go you should go and get your last cut and colour before the big day. This leaves you time to change your mind before the wedding and lets you wear in your cut and get used to it. this should be at your regular hairdresser as they know you and what you suit and like, and 100% ensure they know exactly what you want!

1 Week till the big day

By now everything should be in place, your hair and skin should be silky smooth and you should be looking like a goddess! It is within this week that you should fill your time with all of the last minute beauty treatments!

Waxing
Legs, arms, under arms, lady gardens and basically wherever you want waxed should be done now. Waxing is not necessary however it is practical if you are going on honeymoon as it lasts between 2 - 6 weeks depending on your personal hair growth. It can be painful so be prepared but in my oppinion its 100% worth it!!

Eye Treatments
Any lash and brow tinting and brow waxing should also be done within this week. Tinting is the perfect way to define your brows and lashes and the waxing just finishes it off, perfected brows help to define your face and will ensure you are looking your best. Also tinting means you wont need to wear mascara on honeymoon...
Dont forget you should have a skin test at least 24 hours before your tinting to avoid a reaction!!!
This client went  for a very natural tint and wax to define her lashed and brows.



DIY Beauty Kit
Put together a little DIY beauty  kit for your big day. Add things like the lipstick, or gloss you will be wearing, some concealer and  tissues just incase you cry, a small can of hair spray for any flyaway hairs, a small compact powder with a puff to powder your face after dancing and some safety pins, because lets face it you will  probably need them at some point.

1 Day Till The Big day

Today you should relax with your final manicure, Go for a natural french or perhaps  a bit of bridal nail art!! But what ever it is ensure to finish it off with a nice glass of bubly!!!


The Big Day

Well gorgeous ladies everything falls into place today, have the best day of your life and Ill bet you look beautiful :)
