Wedding Skincare 101: Your Guide to That Bridal Glow
You've picked the date. You're searching for the perfect dress, finalizing flowers, choosing your bridal party, planning the shower, organizing the bachelorette weekend, figuring out seating charts…and somehow your wedding to-do list keeps getting longer. 🤍
But while you're planning every little detail of your big day, there's one very important thing that deserves a spot on that list:
YOU. ✨
Whether you're the bride, bridesmaid, maid of honor, mother of the bride, or mother of the groom, wedding season is the perfect excuse to give your skin a little extra love.
Because beautiful bridal skin shouldn't start the morning of the wedding: it starts weeks before you walk down the aisle.
🧖♀️ Your Simple Bridal Skincare Routine
You don't need a 15-step routine to achieve beautiful skin.
STEP 1: CLEANSE
Start with clean skin to remove makeup, oil and everyday buildup. Gentle exfoliation can also help keep your complexion smooth, but avoid suddenly introducing aggressive exfoliants right before your wedding.
STEP 2: TREAT
This is where treatments such as LED light therapy, professional facials and targeted skincare can come into your bridal beauty plan.
If you're building your bridal glow routine at home too, this is also where an Omnilux LED mask can fit in beautifully as a complement to your in-studio LED treatments.
Consistency matters more than trying every trending treatment you see on TikTok two weeks before your wedding!
STEP 3: HYDRATE
Follow with your favorite hydrating serum and moisturizer to support your skin barrier and keep your complexion looking plump, smooth and luminous.
And don't forget the most important daytime skincare step:
SPF. Every. Single. Day. ☀️
✨ And Then Comes the Bridal Spray Tan...
Once we've gotten that skin looking beautiful, it's time for our favorite part.
THE GLOW. 🤎
For our Let's Glow Girls PSU brides, we recommend scheduling a Bridal Trial Spray Tan before the wedding so we can customize your perfect depth and undertone.
Then, your final Wedding Glow Spray Tan is typically scheduled 2–3 days before the wedding, giving your color time to fully develop and settle beautifully before the big day.
Your wedding is not the day to experiment with a brand-new shade. That's what your trial glow is for!
💎 Your Bridal Beauty Timeline
6–8+ Weeks Before:
Begin consistent skincare, facials and LED treatments. If you want extra support between visits, this is a great time to add an at-home option like the Omnilux LED mask into your routine for that bridal glow.
3–6 Weeks Before:
Schedule your Bridal Trial Spray Tan and finalize your wedding glow.
1–2 Weeks Before:
Complete appropriate waxing, brow and other beauty appointments according to your personalized schedule.
Wedding Week:
Final beauty appointments, lashes, brows, teeth whitening and all the finishing touches.
2–3 Days Before:
✨ Wedding Spray Tan Day! ✨
Then all that's left to do is put on that dress, grab your bouquet and have the absolute BEST day. 💍
