Makeup can enhance good skin; it can't fix skin that's been neglected in the weeks before the wedding. Here's a timeline that actually works.
3 Months Before
Start a consistent, simple routine: gentle cleanser, moisturiser, and daily sunscreen. If you want to try a new active ingredient like retinol or a brightening serum, this is the window to test it — never right before the wedding.
6 Weeks Before
Book any facials, but choose calming, hydrating treatments rather than aggressive peels or extractions this close to the date. Your skin needs time to recover between any treatment and your makeup trial.
2 Weeks Before
Stop introducing anything new. Focus on hydration, sleep, and water intake. This is also when we recommend your final trial, so your skin condition closely matches what it'll be on the wedding day.
The Night Before
A gentle cleanse and a hydrating sheet mask. Avoid heavy exfoliation — slightly plumped, calm skin holds makeup far better than freshly-exfoliated, sensitive skin.
The Morning Of
Eat something light before we arrive, drink water, and let your skin be bare and clean when we begin. We'll handle the rest, layer by layer.
