Tomorrows the day. Every detail is taken care of. This is the perfect time to concentrate on peace of mind and pampering your skin.
Healthy Relaxation
"Eat lightly and healthily lots of fruits and veggies, but be careful because too much fruit will make you bloated," advises Mavis Michelle of Peter Thomas Roth Clinical Skincare. "Drink lots of water, and remember sleep is going to be your best friend."
Calm your nerves before bedtime with a special bath using Banana Republic Peony Foaming Bath Gel, bath salts and candles for purely aromatic pleasure.
Lavender has been a bridal scent since ancient times, and it is known for its soothing qualities. Try Susan Ciminellis Facial Cleansing Milk with lavender and calendula extract, orange blossom, avocado oil and sea kelp.
"Don’t use any face masks or try to do any extractions because you’ll make a mess," Mavis warns. "Instead, use an AHA/BHA clearing gel."
Last Minute Skin Care
Other last minute pimple solutions that leave no red or dry spots are the Mario Badescu Drying Gel with calamine and salicylic acid, and Ponds Overnight Blemish Reducers, clear plastic dots that apply salicylic acid to pimples through the night.
Clear Eyes & Fresh Lips
Youll want your eyes to look like youve never had a bad nights sleep in your life, so this is a good time for eye creams. Ellen Langes microThera Eye Care hydrates and conditions delicate under-eye skin. Susan Ciminellis Chamomile, Lavender and Royal Gelee Eye and Wrinkle Cream also contains those timeless calming essences.
For fresh, kissable lips tomorrow, Mavis suggests Peter Thomas Roth Glycolic Acid Three Percent Eye Complex to dissolve dead tissue (it really works!).
Soothing Foot Care. Sound Sleep.
Youll be on your feet all day. Prepare them by massaging Peter Thomas Roth AHA Exfoliating Foot Cream. Then wear white cotton socks to bed.
To aid your sleep, the Thymes Unlimited created their Sleep Well line, with AHA Hydrating Lotion, Tension Spot Relief (with lavender, geranium and clary sage), scented cedar balls and meditation candles. Caswell-Masseys Freesia Body Lotion will have you dreaming of fields of flowers while it silkens your skin.
Fall asleep with a cool eye compress, thinking wonderful, happy thoughts.
Remember, test any product you use two or three months before to determine if your skin has an adverse reaction.
