Bridal Beauty Concerns – How to FIX them!

Bridal Beauty Concerns – How to FIX them!
Bridal Beauty – Don’t forget your body!
As brides-to-be we tend to focus on beauty routines specific to our face but can tend to forget our body! At The Glowing Brides we want your entire body GLOWING and looking your very best on your SPECIAL day!
Start your daily body moisturising routine TODAY!!
As skin is our largest organ, it is vital that is receives some special attention. Hence, moisturising your body is essential to healthy looking skin.
But when is the best time to moisturise? It is recommended the best time to moisturise is right after a bath or shower. This allows the product to trap some of the water on your skin & use it to hydrate your skin.
How often? This can also depend on the seasons, as in the cooler months, our skin tend to try out quickly due to being inside with heating & usually hotter showers! So you may find you are moisturising more in Winter than Summer months.
Also, don’t forget to moisturise after exfoliating or shaving! Although must do beauty regimes, they tend to strip the protective barrier of natural oils. A moisturiser will help restore the the natural barrier.
Our TOP 3 tips:
1. Don’t forget your legs, arms, elbows & knees – these areas tend to try out quicker and need extra moisture.
2. Exfoliate before you moisturise – as this will shed away the dead skin cells & will allow your moisturiser to be absorb effectively, ensuring you have glowing smooth skin!
3. Your skin is delicate, so gently rub the moisturiser into your skin, to avoid irritation.
Do you know what skin type you are? Is it dry, oily, dehydrated, sensitive or prone to breakouts?
If you are unsure, we can provide you with the options best suited to your desired results!

Brides-to-be?! Eat your way to GLOWING skin! 10 AMAZING foods for clear skin!
The 10 BEST Food For Glowing Skin;
1. Get Glowing With Chocolate – Yes that’s correct, chocolate can be good for us! Cocoa hydrates your skin & dark chocolate contains high levels of flavonoids, a potent antioxidant.
But don’t over do it – a couple of squares a day should be enough to improve luminosity
2. Protect With Pomegranates – They are packed with poly phenols fight free radials & regulate skin’s blood flow.
How much? One pomegranate or a few glasses of juice
3. Walnuts – Soften Skin – Walnuts contain omega 3 essential fatty acids, which improve skin’s elasticity. They contain cooper, a mineral that boost collagen production.
How many? A handy each day should do the trick!
4. Prevent Wrinkles with Yogurt – The protein you get from eating dairy helps skin become firmer, so it’s more resistant to lines. Greek yogurt is more beneficial than regular yogurt.
5. Fight crows feet – It has been found that women who eat green & yellow vegetables regular tend to have fewer wrinkles, especially around the eyes. Carotenoids – an antioxidant found in yellow & orange veggies – can decrease skin’s sensitive to sun.
How much? 2 cups of peppers per day
6. Brighten Up with Sunflower Seeds! They may look tiny but these little seeds are packed with Vitamin E. These seeds keep your skin supple by protecting its top layers from the sun – therefore assisting in avoiding premature ageing & sun spots.
A bit boring just by themselves – had them to your morning cereal!
7. Zap Zits with Kidney Beans – they are high in zinc & studies indicate a correlation between blemishes & low zinc levels. Zinc has healing properities & studies have shown zinc to be as effective against acne as antibiotics are!
8. Drink Green Tea – Green tea is very high in antioxidants & have been found to reduce redness & fight inflammation
How much? At least 1 cup a day!
9. Even your Skin Tone with Soy! Soy contains minerals & proteins that have been shown to reduce hyper pigmentation. Drink a soy latte or eat some edamame & u may get a clearer complexion!
10. Look Younger with Oatmeal – oats play an important in skin healing. Incorporate oats as part our morning ritual – they take a while to breakdown – which keeps you full & don’t allow spiked blood sugar.

Who wants a GLOWING body on their WEDDING?!! After months of planning and wedding preparations, you deserve the best skin possible on your SPECIAL day. As a bride-to-be myself, I understand you don’t have much spare time or extra cash to avoid expensive professional services.
I have found a simply & effective way to have your body GLOWING is daily DRY BRUSHING, which can be done in the comfort of your bathroom!! Perfect!
WHEN?
Just before your shower or bath
WHY?
- Removes dead layers of skin
- Improves skin texture
- Rejuvenates your cells
- Increase blood circulation
- Promotes smooth & even skin for entire body
- Helps release fatty deposits under the skin
- It unclogs pores & de-congestion skin
WHAT YOU NEED?
- Natural bristled brush (plant based) (gentle on skin) & long handled brush for back & body oil
Start with a soft or medium brush
HOW?
- Always brush on dry skin
Start from your feet & work your way up - Long upward strokes from your feet
- Work on abdominal area last & brush in a clockwise direction
- Use light pressure
- Just the body, avoid face (too sensitive)
- Takes about 3-5 mins
- Then have your shower, to remove dry dead skin
WHAT TO EXPECT:
- Skin maybe a little rosy, due to increase of blood circulation to skin surface
- Also avoid areas of your skin that are sensitive, any wounds, rashes or sunburn. Don’t brush on freshly shaved legs!
- In shower: use a moisturising gentle body wash
- After shower: don’t forget to moisturise entire body
Any Q’s we would love to hear from you!
Happy brushing! Luv The Glowing Brides xx
Exfoliate – Don’t Forget Your Body!
Do you have your dress? Will your arms be exposed? Legs? Chest?
Over the Winter months we tend to hide our body but it’s one of the simple yet effective ways, to have smooth & glowing skin!
We all tend to focus on facial beauty regimes but forget the body!
BUT just have a think about your dress. Will your shoulders, arms and legs be exposed?
For your BIG DAY you want to be GLOWING from head to toe, and this starts in the shower!
I recommend from 6 months out, you need to exfoliate your WHOLE body ONCE a week. Ensure you concentrate on your neck, shoulders, arms and moisturise as soon as you get out of the shower, so that by your wedding day, your body is GLOWING too!
EXFOLIATING is ESSENTIAL if you are having a spray tan! No bride wants a patchy tan, due to lack of skin prep!!
