The Ultimate Big-Day Countdown

Glowing, beautiful skin in time for that special day

You’ve snagged Mr Right, bought the dress and everything is falling into place!

Now you just need to make sure your skin is glowing for your big day.  At The Beauty Emporium, we know you have enough to think about without having to make more lists, so we’ve prepared a pre-wedding countdown especially for you!

 

For flawless skin we suggest that you start introducing a good homecare routine at least 6 months in advance. To make sure you’re getting off to a great start, book a skin consultation with one of our experts to discuss your main concerns. They’ll help you to develop a skin-health program that includes advising you on in-salon treatments, and a simple, twice-a-day homecare routine to keep your skin looking fabulous.

 

6 months before your big day

During a thorough skin consultation with our highly-skilled therapist we’ll suggest a personalised program for you. For example, this might include a series of facial peels, targeted facials such as a oxygen treatments or perhaps laser treatments to help get any unwanted pigmentation, acne or rosacea under control.

We know that planning a big event or wedding can potentially be a stressful, busy time. So, it’s important to take a little time out to relax and pamper yourself, or let us at The Beauty Emporium do that for you. Keep up with your in-salon facial treatments, and try that spray tan.

Your wedding is the perfect excuse for some extra pampering; so let our wonderful therapists spoil you on the lead-up to your special day.

Perhaps your brows could do with a pick-me-up? If you’ve been thinking about re-shaping, it’s better to start now as it can take more than one visit to achieve the look you’re after.

Not long to go! Now is the perfect time to book in for a manicure and pedicure, to make sure your nails are in tip-top condition for your big day. Then we’ll perfect them a few days before the big ‘do’. We recommend you have your last laser treatment around now and it’s also a great time to re-look at your eyebrow shape & colour.

 

Then, of course we’ll help you with your make-up trial, finding the perfect look for you, whether it’s high-glam or fresh and natural. Last, but not least, we’ll share a few tips to keep body looking amazing, number one being to exfoliate, exfoliate, exfoliate!

 

 

1 week before

With just one week to go, it’s time for your manicure and pedicure. We’ll always suggest a calming oxygen facial too, to maintain that dewy skin. (It’s not the time to try anything too stimulating or deep-cleansing). And most brides-to-be will need a relaxing massage to help them de-stress and prepare for their big day.

 

 

a few days before

Bet you won’t be able to believe how quickly this time will have flown! Now the fun really begins! We’ll take care of the details with a final eyebrow shaping, eyelash tint and it wouldn’t be fair to keep you all to ourselves, so why not book in your bridal party for a natural spray tan?

 

Then, try and get some rest, (eight hours sleep each night if possible) to prevent dark circles under your eyes and make sure you are ready to enjoy the best day of your life!
