Tips for perfect wedding day skin:

Should I do anything special with my skin before my wedding?

Your skin should definitely look healthy for your wedding day. This is a time to look radiant, not made-up. Start one week prior to the wedding with a daily routine of cleanse, scrub, tone, and moisturize. Use a cleanser that is not drying so you won't create any excessive lines or patchiness. Use a scrub with micro action to exfoliate dead skin layers and reveal new healthy skin. Nonalcoholic toners are best during this routine so you don't over strip the already exfoliated skin. A moisturizer that is light should be applied morning and night. When the day arrives, you will notice that your make up glides on easily and promotes a healthy glow.

Is it safe to use acids on my face?

 

There are several types of acids, glycolic, salicylic, fruits, aha, etc. Acids while in a high percentage, say 35%, will cause the top most layers of the skin to "burn" away within minutes. This process needs to be administered my a licensed professional. Acids with a lower percentage around 5% are intended for home use and can be already included in some skincare products such as moisturizers or serums. These products are a good source of continual gentle exfoliation and reveal beautiful new skin within days.

Is there any help for over dry skin?

Yes, most skincare products containing hyaluronic acid will give immediate smoothness and moisture to rough dry skin surfaces and significantly improve skin appearance. Hyaluronic acid actually absorbs moisture from the atmosphere and binds it together on your skin. Essentially greaseless, the natural acid will also plump up lines and wrinkles.
