Marrying the right person is one of lifes most blissful and cherished moments that you will ever live; especially if you have waited all your life to find your better half and you just cannot wait to be with them for the remaining years! And, we cannot wait any longer to help you make your big day even more memorable and simply perfect for you by sharing some of the best skincare tips and secrets that will come in handy during your wedding celebrations.

So, miss beautiful bride-to-be, this guide has everything you need to know to look your absolute best and stunning throughout the wedding celebration that makes everyone around you and your better half go awestruck by simply looking at you.

Why Is Pre-Wedding Skincare Important?

We often come across the question 'Why pre-wedding skincare routine is important? or 'Why do I need to start my skincare months before the wedding day?

The answer to all such questions is that you dont get naturally flawless, radiant, and beautiful-looking skin overnight. You have spent years not taking care of your skin the right way, and repairing and reversing the same takes time. Hence, pre-wedding skincare is extremely important for allowing your skin to heal, transform, and enhance your natural beauty.

Your wedding skincare routine does not have to be extravagant. Basic skincare essentials that suit your skin type and needs, such as a gentle face wash, a nourishing face serum, a lightweight and hydrating moisturiser, and a broad-spectrum sunscreen like PONDS Sun Miracle SPF 50 PA+++ Creme Gel Sunscreen With Niacinamide are all you need to get your skin picture perfect for all your wedding celebrations.

Essential Steps for Pre-Wedding Skincare

1. Cleansing:

When it comes to choosing the right face cleanser, always opt for a gentle yet effective face wash that helps remove impurities without being harsh on your skin. For a natural bridal glow-up, opt for a face wash with Vitamin B3 like PONDS Bright Beauty Anti-Dullness Face Wash which offers a glass-like-shine after every wash. For better results, use this face wash twice a day as the 1st step in your skincare routine.

2. Gentle exfoliation:

Skin exfoliation can take you a long way in your skincare journey. But, over-exfoliation can make your skin too sensitive and prone to skin problems. So, stick to exfoliating your skin only once or twice a week depending on your skin type and needs. If you have sensitive skin or existing skin conditions, consult a skin specialist before using exfoliating face washes.

3. Nourish with face serum:

All the brides-to-be, hear us out, a face serum is a game-changing skincare essential that you cannot miss out on! For your skin to glow naturally, it should be healed from within. That is exactly what a face serum does; it goes deep into your skin, targeting various skin concerns from the root. If you are looking for a face serum to combat dullness, dark spots, and pigmentation, look for face serums rich in Niacinamide and Glutathione Precursors like PONDS Anti-Pigmentation Serum with 12% Gluta-Niacinamide Complex that works like magic and is suitable for all skin types.

Alternatively, if you are looking for a face serum which is rich in vitamins and can help brighten your skin, PONDS Bright Beaut 12% VIT C+E+A is the only face serum you will need to level up your skin glow and achieve a flawless bridal look.

4. Moisturisation and sun protection:

Your skincare routine will always be incomplete without moisturisation and optimum sun protection. Lightweight and quick-absorbing moisturisers with Hyaluronic Acid and Vitamin E like PONDS Super Light Gel-Oil Free Moisturiser help lock in moisture into your skin for long hours to give your skin a soft, supple, and perfectly plumped look.

Applying a broad-spectrum sunscreen every day before walking out in the sun gives your skin optimum protection from harmful UVA and UVB rays. For optimum protection, you should apply a minimum of SPF 30 sunscreen with a PA+++ rating at least 15 to 20 minutes before you step outdoors.

Quick Fixes for Last-Minute Glow

1. Face scrubs:

Face scrubs infused with active ingredients like Vitamin B3 and Vitamin E offer an instant glow to your skin, making them a perfect last-minute rescue for brides. Massage the scrub on your face for a minute and rinse it off to get an instant glow right before wedding rituals.

2. Face mask:

This goes without saying face masks can help get you that last-minute glow, pampering your skin just the right way. Look for a face mask with hydrating ingredients that are gentle yet effective on your skin. Dont forget to layer your skin with PONDS Bright Beauty Gel Creme With Glutaboost Niacinamide to keep your skin hydrated and radiant throughout the day.

3. Moisturisation:

Amongst all the wedding preparations, dont forget to take equal care of your body. After all, rough, dry, and parched skin can make your skin feel comfortable and irritated all the time you perform different wedding rituals. After taking a bath, take a few pumps of PONDS Hydra Miracle Hyaluronic Gel Body Lotion, and apply it all over your body to plump, soft, and hydrated skin.

4. Stay hydrated:

This might not seem like a last-minute hack, but a reminder to keep yourself hydrated as it allows your body to flush out harmful toxins and help you glow from within. Ensure you drink enough water before and the day of your wedding so that you dont feel dehydrated while walking down the aisle.

Foods and Hydration for Radiant Skin

To maintain the appearance of skin and overall health, include the following food options in your diet:

Seasonal fruits are easily available and help increase nutritional levels in your body.

Incorporating antioxidant-rich food items such as nuts, seeds, and green vegetables can help keep your skin and body healthy from within.

Avoid processed and high-sugar food as they can lead to sudden breakouts and other skin and health issues.

Try to eat more home-cooked food over junk or instant foods as they do more harm than good to your skin and health.
