Weddings
Your Ultimate
beauty countdown
Amy, from Envy Beauty, tells us
what you should be doing in
preparation for your big day
6 Weeks To Go
I would highly recommend a course of six MONU skin peel facials;
one a week for six weeks, increasing intensity as you go. It’s a
natural acid peel that regenerates your skin, creates a youthful glow,
banishes any fine lines and also reduces pores. I would ensure the
last facial was one week before the big day. I would also recommend
using SPF daily.
1 Month To Go
I would suggest using MONU’s Enriched Body Cream daily and
drinking plenty of water. I would say at least two litres a day to
ensure your skin is glowing.
2 Weeks To Go
At this point, I would recommend a full body scrub. I would then
repeat this a week before too. You can either have a treatment in
the salon, or use MONU’s Body Buffer in the shower at home. It’s
great for removing any dead skin cells on the surface and revealing
a smoother complexion all over.
Last 24 Hours
I would suggest having Gelish nails for a high shine, long-lasting
finish. Most people opt for a classic French, pretty pink, or elegant
nude. They last over two weeks, making them perfect for your
honeymoon after the wedding. I’d also suggest a pedicure to keep
your toes looking fresh. Orly’s Argan Oil Cuticle Drops help to
keep your cuticles nourished and promotes the
longevity of your gel nails.

1 Week To Go
I’d recommend having a HD Brow Treatment. This is by far my
most popular treatment. Brows can completely transform your
face shape, so keeping them tidy is a must. This bespoke treatment
ensures each of my clients get a natural-looking result. (A patch
test is required for this!) I’d also suggest buying the HD BrowTec
pencil to keep that defined look. It’s an absolute must-have for me!
Another treatment I would really recommend would be LVL lash
lift or AHFrancis lash extensions. The LVL lash lift lengthens and
defines your lashes with a tint. They’re very low maintenance.
The AHFrancis are individual lash extensions and offer a more
glamorous look. After application they can be infilled every 2-3
weeks to maintain that full effect. (Again, a patch test is required
for both of these!)
