Tips For a Flawless Wedding Day Face

BellaSugar — Tue, 29 Apr 2008 09:00:49 -0700

The last thing that you want captured on film on your blissful wedding day are your under-eye circles, open pores and heaven forbid - pimples. It's never too early on your wedding beauty calendar to tackle the issues that keep your skin from looking and feeling its best. The typical bride aims for rosy cheeks, pink lips, lush lashes and radiant skin (although I encourage you to express yourself in your own way). To ensure that your face is as flawless as possible, here are a few tips to help prep your skin for your exciting walk down the aisle.

Acne: If you are prone to acne or cystic acne, you may want to see a dermatologist and try a round of antibiotics to keep breakouts at bay. You can also try a vitamin C or glycolic peel a few months before to see if they will help kill unwanted bacteria.
Sun spots: If you have apparent spots on your face from spending too much time in the sun, there are ways they can be lightened and removed (if necessary), but it can take up to six months. The first step is to exfoliate regularly. If that doesn't help, move onto microdermabrasion in combination with lightening creams.
Large pores: Large pores attract dirt which automatically draws more attention to them. Play around with using a pore minimizing primer or serum, to help shrink them after you have deep cleansed your skin.
Dark circles/bags: For eye bags, restrict your diet to low-salt foods and see if that helps. Apply de-puffing eye creams to help draw out moisture, and use a regular mask. Treatments for dark circles include creams and makeup to help hide them or Restylane injections and laser treatments to completely remove them. Again, this could take a few months so it's something to consider when you still have a good amount of time before the big day.

What to Pack in Your Bridal Beauty Survival Kit

BellaSugar — Fri, 06 Jun 2008 12:00:19 -0700

Even the most natural bride can encounter beauty mishaps on her wedding day - and with emotions running high, it's important to be prepared to handle whatever life may throw your way on the big day. You've spent so much time getting ready it would be a shame to let all of your hard work crumble in the face of a beauty emergency.

Something to consider is arranging a survival bridal kit to pack with you for the ceremony and the reception. It should include various health items like smelling salts, antacid, aspirin, Band-Aids, breath mints, feminine hygiene, and an array of beauty items for touch-ups or accidents. I've just been introduced to a great company called Just in Cases, which specializes in this sort of thing (and their bridal boxes can be personalized with rhinestones, which also makes for a great gift). Here a few suggestions for your wedding day beauty arsenal:

Blotting papers to battle shiny skin
Hairspray for quick pick-ups
Lip gloss to keep you looking polished
Extra hairpins for updos
No-mess makeup remover pads if you choose not to wear waterproof mascara but get misty eyed
Clear nail polish, if you're wearing stockings, to fix runs
An emery board, to prevent snags in case you get a jagged nail
Travel toothbrush and toothpaste
A sample size of your favorite fragrance

Perfecting productivity tactics and exerting extra effort are key to making yourself an indispensable team member, but it's often easier said then done. Some days the checklist is too long to make a dent. Others, it's impossible to focus on work at all. It's acceptable for employees to check personal email or have some "me time" at most jobs, so long as you make up for it with increased effort elsewhere. Check out these tips and guides to increasing your personal and professional effectiveness and output.
