DelectablyChic! is back with its highly anticipated Bridal Gift Guide Series. We begin with Part I: Bride Prep. So many products have been invented that can really make a bride’s glow on her wedding day, especially if she starts using them weeks or months in advance.
Face Masks:
We cannot highlight enough the glow benefits of some of the best face masks. We are big fans of Rodial’s Pink Diamond Lifting Face Mask (ab0ve) which is a skin tightening bio-cellulose face mask for intense hydration and a visible lift with diamond powder. Rodial is well-known for its alchemic and innovative products and the diamond powder used here reflects favourable light for instant, naturally radiant skin. We recommend using it every 2 weeks starting one month before the wedding day.
After use, pair with Rodial Stem Cell Magic Gel Nourish and Restore to build on the result. The Stem Cell Magic Gel is a multi-use skin hydrator and repairer which can be used in a magnitude of ways, from an intensive moisturiser to a night mask or a makeup primer.
Skin Care:
We recommend daily use of Fresh Peony Brightening Foam Face Cleanser (ab0ve) for at least a month before your big day. The product uses a brightening complex derived from peony and licorice root extracts and vitamin C glucoside to even skin tone. Pair with For Beloved One Hyaluronic Acid Moisturizing Surge Cream and For Beloved One Melasleep Brightening Daily Defense Cream (in Rose, Lavender or Orange) for almost magical results to your pores.
Alternatively, Estée Lauder Advanced Night Repair Intensive Recovery Ampoules is also effective, and we especially love Estée Lauder New Dimension Firm & Fill Eye System (ab0ve)which actually fills in the lines around the eye. It’s like magic!
Body Care:
We at DelectablyChic! are absolutely in love with the The Body Shop Spa of the World Dead Sea Salt Scrub Resurfacing Body Scrub and The Body Shop Spa of the World Himalayan Charcoal Body Clay for making your skin smooth. The former is resurfacing body scrub that exfoliates skin, while revitalizing the body and mind while the latter consists of charcoal powder which is an ancient Asian beauty secret proven to draw out impurities from the skin, up to thousands of times its own mass. It has traditionally been used to draw out tensions from the mind too, de-stressing and calming. It is ideal for calming bridal nerves. Soothe on some Estée Lauder Bronze Goddess Whipped Body Crème or MoroccanOil Body Buff after for a truly silky feel with a sexy scent.
Tan:
Summer brides often like a hint of colour to give a fresh look. St. Tropez Gradual Tan in Shower In Shower Tanning Lotion Golden Glow Medium and Everyday Tinted Body Lotion are a fantastic and quick way to get that glow without going to a tanning salon.
