Get that bridal glow!
It's wedding season — experts suggest a crash course in skin care for brides-to-be a few weeks/months prior to the wedding
Here's something for the to-be brides… Look your best on your big day by keeping in mind the following...
Pimple free: Skin treatments must be initiated well in advance, suggests dermatologist Uma Singh.
Combat dark circles: These could be due to physical stress and mental fatigue. "Use under eye creams containing cucumber and green tea extract," says Uma.
Rejuvenate: Exfoliation removes dead skin cell built-up, improves circulation, allays dullness and lightens your skin tone further. Massages effectively dispel tension and anxiety as well.
Gharelu nuske (Home remedies): Ubtan with besan, chandan (sandalwood) and haldi (turmeric) is superbly beautifying.
Manicures: Regular manicures are equally important for those smooth, moisturised hands. Nail area must be moisturised regularly to add strength to the well-polished and shaped nails. If you wish to go in for 'nail-art' to add sparkle to your hands, make sure that your nails are in perfect health.
Pedicures: A fortnightly pedicure not only cleanses and softens the feet, but also helps relieve stress.
Hair care: Strengthen and condition your tresses with suitable hair spas, so that you can flaunt them gracefully.
Bleaching and waxing: Discuss the appropriate type of bleaching and waxing with your beautician, which suits your skin type and requirements.
Light meals: Frequent, small servings of meals, comprising of seasonal fruits, vegetables and fish, is recommended.
Decrease smoking and caffeine consumption: "It'll address the damage caused to the facial skin by the harmful effects of nicotine and caffeine," says cosmetologist Dr Mohan Thomas.
Detoxify: Drink plenty of warm water as it detoxifies the system, clears your skin and helps in shedding excess weight as well.
Beauty sleep: Pamper yourself with 7-8 hours of peaceful, relaxing 'beauty' sleep to be at your glowing best on your most special occasion.
Sun safe: "Use a sunscreen with SPF25 or more," says dermatologist Manjari Bhusari.
Dress test: Go in for a 'test dress up' so you can assess your comfort level and improve it further. Even test wear the make-up. Steer away from products that promise immediate glow and instant radiance as they may cause blemishes.
Remove make-up: Do not go to bed without removing the make-up.
