The Best Beauty Products To Give You That Bridal Glow
The ultimate bridal beauty products that ensures you shine bright on your special day
To Amplify Natural Radiance
Cartier knows a thing or two about playing with light to increase the gleam factor, and its beauty collection is almost as radiant as its diamonds. The Cartier Les Bases à Parfumer Huile Pure can be used on the body, hair, and even face – it includes Peregrina oil, which is known for its ultra-moisturising properties – while the cream version will add a delicate veil of luminescence across the décolletage. Those hooked on the scent should invest in the miniature perfume too – the bride can pop the petite Cartier les Gouttes de Parfum Concentré into a chic clutch.
To Soothe Stressed-Out Skin
If preparing for the big day is written all over your face, then you need a crack team of products that will soothe and calm the skin. The Base Face Milk by Ilia reduces redness, while Sofie Pavitt Face Nice Ice toner pods are a must-pack for reducing inflammation. For any last-minute breakouts, the AHA 2 BHA Blemish Treatment by COSRX is another key product to have in your arsenal. The final flourish? Charlotte Tilbury’s Charlotte’s Magic Hydrator Mist, which will hydrate and prime the skin to perfection.
To Deep, Deep Cleanse
An excellent cleanser plays an important role in keeping your skin clear and blemish-free, especially leading up to a big event. The Tatcha Matcha cleanser is an industry insiders’ cult product, with its natural exfoliant, it helps unclog pores for picture-prefect skin. For sensitive skin, the Pineapple Refresh by Rhode will cleanse without irritation, thanks to its green tea extract and pineapple enzymes. Post the big day, we recommend the Dr. Barbara Sturm’s Make-up Remover, alongside Biologique Recherche’s Cleansing Milk.
To Hydrate Parched Skin
Glowing skin requires moisture, which means nourishing the skin at regular intervals. Humanrace’s 7D mystifying gel moisturizer has a lightweight formula that minimises fine lines and firms the skin, giving brides a flawless complexion, while Shiseido’s Vital Perfection Uplifting and Firming Advanced Cream will tighten and tone. The moisturizing soft cream by La Mer plumps and diminishes lines and wrinkles, and U Beauty’s The Super Intensive Face Oil includes ingredients like vitamin C, antioxidants, and peptides that will refresh the skin. After-dark, replenish your complexion with Dior’s Prestige le Baume de Minuit night cream – a skin saviour with a delightful whipped texture.
