However, I do want to use this opportunity to share few things on how to prep your skin for your BIG day!
As soon as you decided on your wedding date, you start to prep your skin.
"what? that early?"
Oh yes!
The first thing is to understand the type of your skin.
We normally see sensitive, normal, combination, dry, and oily types of skin.
If you don't know the type, then this is a easy way of knowing how to identify:
Normally it is very easy to identify sensitive skin, your face basically get really red if you use harsh facial scrub.
If you are not sensitive skin, then this is what you do. In the morning, after a good night sleep, you go to your bathroom, and observe.
- If you have a very oily face, then you have oily skin.
- If oil only appears on your T-zone, then you have combination skin.
- If your face appear alright, or just a little bit oil, then you have normal type.
- And of course, if you wake up with dry face, then that means you have dry skin.
Once you figure out the type of skin, the next thing you do is still observe.
You want to learn your skin problems. For example, my face start to show some breakouts about a week before aunt flow, so I need to pay extra attention around that part of my time. You want to learn your skin, and what "problems" you want to tackle.
The third step is to actually tackle the problems. Wether you have pore problems, blackheads, acne, fine lines, puffy under eye, etc., you make a list, and help one at a time.
Couple things I also want to say is that, first, try not to experience new products a week before your wedding, you cannot afford any accidents; second, purchase the best product that fits your budget, especially if you have a tight budget, ask for samples before purchasing; and lastly, use sheet mask everyday for the last two weeks if you can, if not, invest in a good sleeping mask to help you stay hydrated on your big day!
