5 Ways To Promote Glowing Skin For Your Wedding Day
By Lesley Chivers.
Adopting a regular skincare routine is a great way to pamper your skin amidst the wedding planning chaos. Every bride dreams of glowing skin on her big day and a regular at-home facial is the perfect way to promote a radiant and flawless complexion. Follow these five steps to give your bridal skincare routine a boost morning and night.
1. Use a Hydrating Cleanser
A good cleanser removes daily grime and makeup build up and in the cooler months you will need to ensure natural oils are not completely stripped from the skin. If your skin feels a little on the tight and dry side, it is time to switch to a hydrating cream. Look for cleansers with skincare benefits like Enhance-my-Skin Multi-acid Miracle Cleanser, 50ml £15.99, which is formulated with glycolic, salicylic acids and antioxidant rich botanicals to gently clean the skin.
2. Adopt daily facial massage
Encourage blood flow and circulation to the face by adopting simple massage techniques. Using firm upward strokes all over the face and jawline will encourage blood flow and lymphatic drainage, helping to remove toxins and dead skin cells too. A quick and effective way to boost the skin’s glow is to use a Gua Sha crystal tool to gently help blood and oxygen circulation.
3. Give Lips some love
Cooler temperatures and windy weather is the number one cause of dry and chapped lips. Time to give your lips some TLC by using a hydrating lip balm. Lotil Lip Care Balm with SPF30, £2.49, is super nourishing and with a non-greasy texture. Slather on daily to keep lips hydrated and protected against the elements.
4. Don’t Forget to use an SPF
Lighter lotions may not be enough to protect your skin from the elements. Switch to richer, thicker daily face creams with ingredients like Hyaluronic acid which helps to lock in moisture and an SPF to protect against UVA and UVB rays, even during cloudy days. Try Elf’s Holy Hydration Face Cream with SPF30, a protective face cream that nourishes the skin.

5. Say Yes to Facial Oils
Colder, harsher conditions can strip the skin of moisture, leaving your complexion looking dull and dehydrated. Using a facial oil rich in fatty acids and antioxidants can help support your skin’s natural moisture barrier and promote natural radiance. Look for botanical blends of essential oils including Grape seed, argan, rose and avocado oils. Apply generously at night time before sleep to allow for the oil to penetrate the skin and lock in hydration. Saira Skin Hydrating Facial Oil, £60 for 30ml, offers a super nourishing blend of fruit and plant oils for plumper looking skin come morning time.
