10 months before the wedding<\/h1>\nCraft an easy-going wedding schedule<\/strong><\/h2>\nCongrats on the new ring on your finger, and the new ten mile to-do list. At 10 months, stress becomes visible in your eyes, in your skin, and your messy hair. This is the time more than ever to prioritize, with sleep and relaxation at the top of your list. You\u2019ll be tempted to cram in wedding planning sessions during your every free moment, but if you don\u2019t take time to breathe, it\u2019ll show.<\/p>\n

Promise to stick to your bridal prep plan together<\/strong><\/h2>\nThe buddy system works, and a little perk of marriage is that you get a buddy for life. Put your pal to work by making them hold you accountable to taking your makeup off every night, grabbing water instead of juice, taking the stairs\u2026 it\u2019s the little things that add up, and you\u2019ll return the favor by supporting their wedding prep efforts as well.<\/p>\n

Adopt a wedding diet that adds\u00a0<\/strong>and<\/em>\u00a0subtracts<\/strong><\/h2>\nDiets all too often focus on what to cut and avoid, and an\u00a0extreme change<\/a>\u00a0could actually be harmful to your health. Make sure to adopt a wedding diet that supplies you with a healthy dose of leafy greens and\u00a0antioxidant rich superfoods<\/a>\u00a0daily. While it is important to cut back on sugar and refined carbohydrates, focusing on what to eat over what to avoid will give you a little extra willpower to help you forge through the next 10 months.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n

Tackle the bathroom cabinet<\/strong><\/h2>\nYou\u2019re probably considering moving out so you\u2019ll have to clean the thing anyway\u2026 you might as well start now! Throw out expired skincare products (you\u2019re probably holding on to more than you realize) and commit to starting a refreshed wedding skin care routine. However, make sure to replenish your bag slowly, and carefully. Ask for samples at beauty stores, purchase travel size versions of the products you\u2019re considering, and try each item one at a time before any full size purchases.<\/p>\n

Work up a sweat and get the party involved<\/strong><\/h2>\nWhen every conversation takes a hard turn to wedding planning, it\u2019s important to get your bridal party together in a way that\u2019s both productive and fun. You\u2019ll also be far more motivated to\u00a0stick to your workout plan<\/a>\u00a0when #teambride and #teamgroom are holding you to it. Get the group together for a Zumba class or video chat\u00a0a DIY HIIT class<\/a>\u00a0together. We promise that this is all way more fun than it sounds.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
Brow down<\/strong><\/h2>\nEven\u00a0Katy Perry will attest\u00a0that it\u2019s the brows that set the face. Whether you\u2019ve mastered your pluck and fill technique or are considering a first time wax appointment, secure and settle into a brow plan now<\/a>. Take a visit to the waxing or threading technician you plan to use before your wedding, or stock up on the products you\u2019ll be using on your big day and take a night to refresh and write down the drill.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n

Craft your wedding specific exfoliation and moisturization plan<\/strong><\/h2>\nThe key to a dewy, natural glow that lasts is a sustainable, gentle exfoliation and moisturization routine. Transforming your skin takes time, and a promise of anything quicker will often create damage underneath the appearance of results. This goes for both you and your spouse-to-be. Adding a\u00a0LUNA 2<\/a>™ to the routine goes beyond exfoliation to nudge out impurities that lie under the skin, and when you\u2019re ready to moisturize, the device will help the products sink in deeper. Here\u2019s a sample routine catered specifically to handle stress related fluctuations and the pre-wedding tears that are bound to happen, and wreak havoc on your skin:<\/p>\n\n- Remove your makeup. Adopt a makeup remover that breaks down the makeup for you. The more you tug at your skin, dark circles and fine lines are bound to take shape. Take care of as much as you can with gentle strokes and don\u2019t worry too much beyond that – your LUNA 2 will take care of the rest.<\/li>\n
- Moisten your face and spread a gentle cleanser.\u00a0<\/strong>Make sure to avoid beads, oatmeal, any texture in your facial cleanser when using a facial device. For best results, use a foam cleanser or the\u00a0Day Cleanser<\/a>™ \u00a0crafted specifically to support your devices efforts.<\/li>\n
- Moisten your device, activate its Cleansing Mode, and cleanse. Glide the cleansing surface over your face in a circular motion for 1 minute. Keep a gentle touch as to allow the T-sonic pulsations™ \u00a0to shimmy the dirt and grime from below the skin.<\/li>\n
- Rinse\u00a0<\/strong>and make sure to pat dry, pressing your face into a soft towel.<\/li>\n
- Spread a facial oil or moisturizer. When applying either, use a soft, patting motion to apply the serum over your skin. This is a crucial step for all skin types – your body becomes encouraged to produce sebum in excess when it detects dry skin.<\/li>\n
- Flip the device over and turn on the Anti-Aging Mode. Press the Anti-Aging side onto wrinkle prone areas for a total of 1 minute. For optimal after-cry rehab, bring on an\u00a0IRIS<\/a>™ \u00a0to settle down any puffiness and redness.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

Consult with wedding day hair & makeup professionals<\/strong><\/h2>\nThis is the time to start your research on bridal hair and makeup professionals. Meet with them in person and ask that they provide references. Beyond chatting with their past wedding clients, take a look at their clients wedding photos to see how the looks photographed through the day and to detect any patterns in their work to consider how they may look on you. Make sure to also get an idea of how many people within the bridal party the stylist handled to gauge their attention to detail under stress. Don\u2019t forget to sign a commitment and make the deposit, even if you won\u2019t be having the trial for some time. Trust us, it\u2019s happened, and they\u2019re the last people you want going MIA.<\/p>\n

Add silk sheets to the bridal shower list<\/strong><\/h2>\nThis probably sounds like the\u00a0weirdest<\/em>\u00a0item for a bridal beauty checklist, but trust us on this. Your pillowcase has a bigger impact on your appearance than you realize. Cotton materials tug at our skin while we sleep, leaving creases and lines that stick on our skin through the day. Even if you flip your noggin over while you snooze, the rough cotton fibers are bound to ruffle up your hair follicles, leaving you with a matted or frizzy at best look in the morning. The solution is simply a set of silk pillowcases that you can switch through often. The silk will\u00a0smooth out your hair and skin<\/a>\u00a0and will even help with the absorption of your nighttime skincare products.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
Date night, every night<\/strong><\/h2>\nYou\u2019re in the heat of wedding planning and we know where your stress is aimed: at your fiance and your face. Fall back in love again, with them and your skin, by prioritizing relaxing, at-home spa date nights. We have the perfect equation:\u00a0LUNA 2<\/a>™ + wine + candles. We\u2019re not suggesting you go\u00a0Queen Mary and bathe in the wine<\/a>, but a glass of red and a DIY spa facial every night? A treat for the mind and body.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n

Break in the wedding shoes<\/strong><\/h2>\nIf you have high hopes for wearing your new wedding heels through the night, it\u2019s best to work at it now. The last thing you want is to be walking down the beach at your honeymoon with bandaids and blisters galore.<\/p>\n

Experiment with bridal makeup looks, professionally<\/strong><\/h2>\nIf you\u2019re going to try out a new color, set of eyelash extensions, or beauty technician, this is the time to do it, and try it against white clothes. If you like what you see and the look transitions well through different lighting, book another appointment for two weeks before your wedding date.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Experiment with bridal makeup looks, personally<\/strong><\/h2>\nIf you\u2019re not using a wedding day makeup artist or hair stylist, trial your bridal beauty products and put your skills to the ultimate test. Book a day to night outing with the girls and wake up extra early to practice your routine. Remember that you\u2019re bound to be under a blanket of stress and emotions on top of the normal pressures of a schedule, so consider also having a bridesmaid test out and handle your look for the day. Take pictures and print out notes of every action performed to ensure not a beat is missed on the big day.<\/p>\n

Touch up<\/strong><\/h2>\nNow\u2019s the time for the second brow appointment, hair trim or color touch up. Make sure to stick to your routine and stay away from drastic changes.

<\/p>\n
Whiten up<\/strong><\/h2>\nAn upkick of coffee and alcohol that\u2019s bound to happen during the crunch before the wedding will dust a new shade of color onto your grin. Adopt a wedding teeth whitening plan now so that, even if you do have sensitive teeth, you can abort the process soon after your wedding. If you\u2019re looking for a more sustainable whitening plan, switch to the\u00a0ISSA™ Hybrid<\/a>\u00a0brush head for a deeper clean to deal with heavier buildup.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
The final wedding hair and makeup trial<\/strong><\/h2>\nMake sure to schedule your final bridal hair and makeup trials for after your spray tan. Remind your makeup artist that you\u2019ve been bronzed so that she can bring along shades lighter and darker than your natural to ensure a proper fit the day of. Since your hair should be the same length as it is right now for your big day, you can ensure that it\u2019ll look just as good on the date.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n

Scrub and wax\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\nA fully body scrub doubles as a massage and exfoliation treatment. Make sure to moisturize often and leave a week for your skin to settle. There\u2019s a chance for your body wax or scrub to leave a tint of redness to the skin which your white dress will only work to bring out.<\/p>\n

Pack for the honeymoon<\/strong><\/h2>\nAfter the wedding madness, your skin is going to beg you for some time off. Don\u2019t forget to pack a strong moisturizer for the plane ride and your\u00a0LUNA 2<\/a>™ to cut through the wedding weekend\u2019s grime. If you\u2019re thinking of a beachy getaway, stick to nothing but a heavy dose of sunscreen and a touch of waterproof mascara for a dewy yet sultry vibe through the week. If you\u2019re busting through the city, a killer shade of lipstick is all you\u2019ll need to match the energy. Take the time to enjoy one another and remember that, when it comes to your beauty routine for the week, simplicity is key.<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n

The last thing you want is to be walking down the beach at your honeymoon with bandaids and blisters galore.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n If you\u2019re going to try out a new color, set of eyelash extensions, or beauty technician, this is the time to do it, and try it against white clothes. If you like what you see and the look transitions well through different lighting, book another appointment for two weeks before your wedding date.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n If you\u2019re not using a wedding day makeup artist or hair stylist, trial your bridal beauty products and put your skills to the ultimate test. Book a day to night outing with the girls and wake up extra early to practice your routine. Remember that you\u2019re bound to be under a blanket of stress and emotions on top of the normal pressures of a schedule, so consider also having a bridesmaid test out and handle your look for the day. Take pictures and print out notes of every action performed to ensure not a beat is missed on the big day.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Now\u2019s the time for the second brow appointment, hair trim or color touch up. Make sure to stick to your routine and stay away from drastic changes. Keep the technicians you\u2019re comfortable with and record any changes to update with your wedding hair and makeup artists. Remind your spouse-to-be to get their hair touched up now as well!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n An upkick of coffee and alcohol that\u2019s bound to happen during the crunch before the wedding will dust a new shade of color onto your grin. Adopt a wedding teeth whitening plan now so that, even if you do have sensitive teeth, you can abort the process soon after your wedding. If you\u2019re looking for a more sustainable whitening plan, switch to the\u00a0ISSA™ Hybrid<\/a>\u00a0brush head for a deeper clean to deal with heavier buildup.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Make sure to schedule your final bridal hair and makeup trials for after your spray tan. Remind your makeup artist that you\u2019ve been bronzed so that she can bring along shades lighter and darker than your natural to ensure a proper fit the day of. Since your hair should be the same length as it is right now for your big day, you can ensure that it\u2019ll look just as good on the date.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n A fully body scrub doubles as a massage and exfoliation treatment. Make sure to moisturize often and leave a week for your skin to settle. There\u2019s a chance for your body wax or scrub to leave a tint of redness to the skin which your white dress will only work to bring out.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n After the wedding madness, your skin is going to beg you for some time off. Don\u2019t forget to pack a strong moisturizer for the plane ride and your\u00a0LUNA 2<\/a>™ to cut through the wedding weekend\u2019s grime. If you\u2019re thinking of a beachy getaway, stick to nothing but a heavy dose of sunscreen and a touch of waterproof mascara for a dewy yet sultry vibe through the week. If you\u2019re busting through the city, a killer shade of lipstick is all you\u2019ll need to match the energy. Take the time to enjoy one another and remember that, when it comes to your beauty routine for the week, simplicity is key.<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n8 months before the wedding<\/strong><\/h1>\n
