Glowy skin secrets<\/h3>\n

In episode four, Tayla and Megan chat with Rachael Riley, a dermal therapist at Melbourne skin clinic James Vivian, about how to prep your skin for the big day.<\/p>\n

The most common question couples want to know is \u2014 how far out from the wedding should I start preparing my skin? That all depends, of course, on the current condition of your skin and your current routine. If you\u2019ve got problem areas like acne, scarring, or sensitivity, then the answer is straight away! Addressing skin concerns with a professional dermal therapist as soon as you\u2019re engaged means you can progress to maintenance mode quicker and not have to stress about it for the rest of your journey to the aisle.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re someone who\u2019s never really had a skincare routine and wondering whether you should start one now; in the least, moving from soap and water to a cleanser, moisturiser, and exfoliator is a great first step. You can also experiment with different moisturiser finishes well before the day to decide if you want a matte or dewy look.<\/p>\n

Your makeup artist is a crucial part of your wedding prep dream team, but they are not necessarily skin experts. When you\u2019re investigating makeup artists, you can question whether they also have skin expertise, and if not, seek the advice of a professional dermal therapist, especially for problem areas.<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t

Skin treatment dos and don’ts<\/h3>\n

What about the treatments that should be avoided? This isn\u2019t so much about the what as the when. Never try a new product or treatment the night before or the day of the wedding. This means no fancy skin peels or masks the night before in case of an allergic reaction. Always seek the advice of a professional dermal therapist before trying something new \u2014 they\u2019ll guide you through product selection for your skin and the safe zone for experimenting with new regimes.<\/p>\n

What if you wake up with a giant pimple on the morning of the wedding?! Rachael\u2019s advice is clear. If it doesn\u2019t yet have a head and is red, shiny and sore, do not touch it! Leave it as it is. Apply ice to reduce the redness and swelling. Your makeup artist will work their magic to cover it up.<\/p>\n

If the pimple has a head, use a warm compress (like a face washer), but never a hot one. Apply on and off until the white head is released. Never squeeze or apply abrasive ointments like salicylic acid. Again, ice the pimple to reduce redness and swelling and leave it to your makeup artist to get you aisle-ready.<\/p>\n

Finally, when you get to the ceremony before you walk down the aisle, drink some water \u2014 a bottle with a straw is preferable so your lipstick stays put. The water will hydrate your lips and mouth, you\u2019ll get your words out easier, and you\u2019ll be right for the kiss.<\/p>\n

Perfecting your bridal makeup look<\/h3>\n

In this episode, Tayla and Megan are joined by professional makeup artist and educator Tahlia Liapis about how to ensure you choose the right makeup artist, skin prep necessities ahead of \u2014 and on \u2014 the day, things to avoid at all costs, and so much more!<\/p>\n

When it comes to finding your perfect makeup artist, Tahlia recommends doing a full deep dive on their Instagram, checking out their past work, and making sure they’re skilled with your unique look \u2014 skin tone, eye colour, hair vibes, etc.<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t

Beauty trial dos and don’ts<\/h3>\n

Tahlia’s golden ticket to the trial is bringing a selection of inspo pics. Grab snaps from your Pinterest as well as from the MUA’s own posts to highlight two to three looks you adore. This makes it easier for them to recreate the vibe you want because they know the process and products that went into creating those looks. Don’t forget to come to your trial exactly the way you would the morning of your wedding \u2014 lash extensions, fake tan, and all \u2014 to avoid surprises, like mismatched foundation or unsuitable falsies, on the day.<\/p>\n

Emergency touch-up tips<\/h3>\n

A wedding being a long-haul event, Tahlia strongly suggests every bride keep an “emergency touch-up kit” \u2014 just in case you’ve received a million kisses on the cheek from your guests, have been sweating up a storm on the dancefloor, or just want to make sure your glam looks 100% all night long. In your touch-up kit, add your lipstick, lip liner, blotting papers, and powder foundation. You can also keep some lash glue and tweezers in there, just in case!<\/p>\n

Nailing your wedding day hairstyle<\/h3>\n

Episode six is all about nailing your wedding day hairstyle, and after hearing about Tayla\u2019s bridal hair mishap, the girls learn some insightful tips from Brittany Galea, Creative Director of Hair by Brittany in Melbourne.<\/p>\n

According to Brittany, it\u2019s important to consider your entire look and how your hair will work with your dress and accessories so nothing clashes. Think simple and classic for your hairstyle if you\u2019ve got a busy d\u00e9colletage or go all out with a flowy hair look if your dress is more simple and strapless.<\/p>\n

Consult your stylist during your trial to make sure the vision you have in mind will suit your hair type and that you\u2019re on the same page so that you look and feel your absolute best on the day. Trust their expertise as a hair expert to create the perfect style for your hair.<\/p>\n

In need of some inspo for your hair look? Brittany’s top wedding hair trends for 2023 and beyond are soft 90s blowouts, fluffy waves, and sleek, snatched styles. Think less polished and structured and more fun, natural, and personal.<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t

Colouring your hair before the wedding<\/h3>\n

Wondering how far out from the wedding day you should schedule your hair colour appointment? Follow Brittany\u2019s \u201ctwo-wash rule\u201d and book your colouring appointment around ten days to two weeks out from the wedding to make sure your hair colour has settled and toned properly before the big day.<\/p>\n

Nails, tanning & hair removal<\/h3>\n

In episode seven, beauty therapist extraordinaire and owner of The Beauty Room Melbourne, Holly Hudson, shares the lowdown on pre-wedding beauty appointments. If you\u2019re wondering how to prep for a spray tan appointment or when to get your nails done, this is the ep for you!<\/p>\n

Exfoliate your body a week before your spray tan using a mitt or dry body brush, and keep your skin moisturised, especially around the elbows, ankles, and knees. Do any hair removal two days before, and make sure you book a mani and pedi first to avoid products at the nail salon affecting your spray tan. Right before your tanning appointment, avoid wearing moisturiser, perfume or deodorant after you shower. Wear loose, dark clothing and slip-on shoes.<\/p>\n

When to book your tanning appointment? According to Holly, one to two days before the event is ideal, especially if you\u2019re wearing a lighter-coloured dress. To maintain the tan at home before the wedding day, keep your showers as short as possible and moisturise, moisturise, moisturise! Preferably with a moisturiser that doesn\u2019t contain much oil or fragrance.<\/p>\n\n
