Glowing Skin for Brides

Every bride wants to look her best on her wedding day. However, the sheer magnitude of tasks in planning a perfect day can take its toll and the lack of sleep can quickly show the evidence of stress on your skin.

One of the best things you can do is to ensure you get plenty of rest, exercise and eat a low fat diet (cut out alcohol and as much sugar as possible). Make sure you do not over stress and always wear a sun block when stepping out into the sun.

However, if you do wake up on the morning of the wedding and you feel that your skin is just not glowing, do not despair as Bobbi Brown make-up range has a perfect solution in fixing your skin problems and giving you a glowing complexion!

Latest News from La Mer

Current scientific studies suggest that lines and wrinkles are “micro-scars” to skin’s underlying support network.  Their formation is thought to be triggered by chronic inflammation caused by a variety of internal and external stressors such as UV sunlight and free radicals.  These inflammatory stressors can lead to the destruction of collagen, which in turn provokes premature skin aging.

Inspired by these findings, The Max Huber Research Labs have created The Regenerating Serum, La Mer’s new anti-aging powerhouse.  Four years and hundreds of hours of lab work in the making, this ultra-luxe elixir with 50 patents worldwide* is the result of the combined effort of physicists, marine botanists and biologists around the world.  Not only does it contain a high concentrate of La Mer’s proprietary Miracle BrothTM, but it also includes the new Regenerating FermentTM, derived from marine plant stem cells.

Bobbi Brown’s Top 10 Wedding Day Tips

* Flash photography emphasizes pink tones, so be sure to even out skin with a yellow-toned foundation. Start around the nose and mouth where there’s redness, then blend out to the rest of the face.
* Set concealer and foundation with Sheer Finish Loose Powder to make them longer-lasting and to ensure that skin looks matte in pictures.
* If your dress has an open neckline, be sure to warm up your neck and chest with a dusting of Bronzing Powder.
