The best skin prep for wedding makeup is a simple routine that focuses on deep hydration and on creating a smooth canvas for makeup and adhesives without leaving skin exposed to irritation and reaction to cosmetic ingredients.
The Wedding-Day Prep Steps
- Cleanse: Start with a gentle, hydrating cleanser to remove impurities without stripping the skin barrier.
- Hydrate with Serum: Apply a lightweight, hyaluronic acid-based serum to plump the skin and lock in moisture.
- Nourish the Eyes: Use a lightweight, fast-absorbing eye cream to help keep skin hydrated during long ceremonies and photos.
- Moisturize: Choose a water-based or balancing moisturizer
- Prime, Seal & Protect: Apply Barrier Lotion from Skin Saver Labs to lock in skincare benefits, to protect skin from irritation and exposure, and to form a smooth, stable base for makeup and adhesives.
