| A healthy looking tan on your wedding day, however, can be a finishing touch to your gown and emphasise that natural glow. These days you can get a damage free tan from a range of salons and day spas, a better option than do it yourself tan. There are a number of tanning techniques available, a good idea is to trial a few in the months leading up to your wedding. Remember DHA is what produces a long term tan, while bronzer produces an instant tan.
Top Tanning TipsBefore Tanning:
- avoid oil based products;
- exfoliate, shave and moisturise.
After tanning:
- wait four to six hours before showering or swimming;
- moisturise daily, especially after showering;
- avoid exfoliating until you are ready to tan again;
- salt water and chlorine will affect the life of your tan.
Sometime during the hectic schedule remember to take time out to rejuvenate yourself. Pampering and relaxing could and should start the night before the wedding. Get together with your bridesmaids either in your home or hotel and enjoy a night of indulgence and pampering. There are a number of beauty therapists who specialise in packages which involve them breaking out the bubbly, filling the air with the calming scent of relaxing oils and gentle music. Massages, foot spas and a warm, candlelit bubble bath complete the picture. Afterwards you should all feel totally relaxed and able to sleep the whole night through and awake totally refreshed.
Pre-wedding pampering packages lengthen the whole wedding experience and maximise the special time you spend with family and close friends. It helps calm last minute nerves, anxiety and exhaustion after a really hectic week of final preparations – this option applies to the groom an his groomsmen too!
