No Small Brides, Only Small Details

There are so many big things to think about when you are planning your wedding. Venues, dresses, cakes, and colors all come to the forefront when you begin to make your list. Because of the many decisions that must be made, many brides-to-be look to a wedding planner to help keep things in order and on a timely roll toward the big day. While everyone is worried about the result of the ceremony and reception, the bride needs to look toward some more personal preparations that only she can do for herself.

In ancient times, the bride-to-be would spend months soaking in milk baths and coating herself in tightening clays and natural beauty treatments. Things haven’t changed all that much. Focusing on personal beauty in the months that lead up to the wedding day is an important value to soon-to-be brides. Many brides pay special attention to their skin with options like lotions and tanning, eating healthy and working out, and brightening their smile with quality products like Colgate toothpaste and dental visits before their big day.

Flawless Skin

While the bride’s focus can be on finding the perfect dress and shoes, the bride-to-be will want her skin to match. Using a quality firming lotion in conjunction with a color-enhancing tanning lotion can give your skin the glow and confidence everyone wants for these once-in-a-lifetime events. For your wedding makeup to go on flawless, ensure you focus on your face during your daily routine. Use exfoliating cleansers and quality skin care products to reduce lines, discolorations, and blemishes. Keeping your skin supple and smooth will make you feel beautiful in both your wedding gown and your honeymoon bikini.

Healthy Body

Eating healthy will improve your skin and body image before your big day. Avoid high consumption of fast food, sugars, breads, and even those expensive coffee drinks, which may not digest efficiently throughout the day. Commit to eating the foods you know are good for you:

·         Fruits and vegetables will give your body the vitamins and nutrients it needs to stay healthy and glowing.

·         The right proteins will help you build muscle and burn fat.

·         Healthy carbs will give you the energy needed to complete your to-do list.

If you have time, begin a good exercise regime to tone your whole body while you practice some healthy eating habits to carry with you into your new life. If your dress will be sleeveless, tone your arms by incorporating strength training.

Picture-Perfect Smile

There’s nothing more radiant than the bride’s smile on her big day. If you don’t already have one, now’s the time to begin a healthy and strict daily dental routine. Use quality brushing products like one of Colgate’s toothpastes so you can have healthy teeth and a white, dazzling smile. Additionally, see your dentist and fix any problem teeth or issues you have with your smile that can be corrected before the big day. You want to be proud of your smile when you are face-to-face with your fiancé and saying, “I do.”

There are many things to be done before the big day. Some tasks you can dole out to family or place safely in the hands of a professional wedding planner. However, some very small but very important tasks lie squarely with you. Pay attention to your personal beauty by caring for your skin, your body, and your smile. Taking time for these little extras helps to make your special day the very best it can be.
