6-12 Months Before: Start Your Bridal Skincare Journey

Trending Treatment: Skin Peels & Dermaplaning
Brides in 2025 are choosing monthly skin peels to brighten dull skin and fix uneven tones, combined with dermaplaning every 2-3 months for a smooth, makeup-ready finish.

Why?
Skin peels resurface, renew, and revive tired skin, while dermaplaning removes peach fuzz and dead skin for an instant glow.

Pro Tip: Start early so your therapist can create a personalized treatment plan to address pigmentation, acne scarring, or dryness before the big day.

3-4 Months Before: Focus on Brows & Lashes

Brows frame your face, and lashes enhance your look.

Trending Treatment: Brow Lamination & Lash Lift
– Book: Brow lamination for fuller, structured brows that stay in place all day.
– Book: Lash lift and tint for a natural yet defined look without extensions (perfect for your honeymoon too).

Pro Tip: Book your first lamination or lash lift 3 months prior to check the results, then again 1-2 weeks before the wedding.

2-3 Months Before: Trial Your Bridal Nails

You’ll be showing off your ring, so ensure your nails are ready for close-ups.

Trending Treatment: BIAB Bridal Nude Nails
BIAB (Builder in a Bottle) overlays are perfect for brides wanting elegant, strong, natural nails that last from pre-wedding events through the honeymoon.

Pro Tip: Try BIAB nails 2-3 months before to check shape, strength, and durability, then get infills and final polish just before the wedding.

 

4-6 Weeks Before: Hair Removal Trials

Trending Treatment: Lycon Bikini & Full Body Waxing
Lycon Wax removes hair as short as 1mm with minimal discomfort, making it ideal for sensitive skin brides.

Why trial waxing early?
To ensure your skin reacts well and to align hair growth cycles for your final pre-wedding wax.

Pro Tip: Avoid last-minute first-time waxing to prevent irritation close to your wedding or honeymoon.

1-2 Weeks Before: Final Wax & Brows

– Book your final bikini, leg, and underarm waxing 5-7 days before to allow redness to settle.
– Book brow shaping and tinting for a defined look that enhances your face in photos.

3-5 Days Before: Hydration & Glow Treatments

Trending Treatment: Fire & Ice Resurfacing Facial
Known as the “red carpet facial,” this treatment resurfaces, smooths, and hydrates for plumper, glowing skin without downtime.

Pro Tip: Avoid harsh peels or extractions right before the wedding to minimize irritation risks.

1-2 Days Before: Nails & Relaxation

– Book your final bridal manicure and pedicure. BIAB or gel polish ensures chip-free nails throughout your wedding and honeymoon.
– Optional: Treat yourself to a relaxing massage to calm your nerves and promote restful sleep before your big day.

Pro Tips from Beauty Box Pangbourne Bridal Specialists

– Avoid new skincare products the week before your wedding to prevent reactions.
– Hydrate! Glowing skin comes from within—drink plenty of water daily.
– Sleep well the night before. Lack of sleep shows up instantly on your skin and under your eyes.
– Don’t skip sunscreen in the days leading up to your wedding to avoid redness or peeling.
