While wedding day skincare is often associated with the bride, it’s equally important for the groom to take care of his skin leading up to the big day. After all, both of you must look stunning when you’re standing at the altar, surrounded by family and friends!
Grace & Glamour brings you some tips for wedding day skincare for the groom today!
1. Begin and begin early. And we mean EARLY!
Good skincare habits take time to develop, so start early to give your skin the best chance to look its best on the big day. Aim to start your wedding day skincare routine at least six months in advance, if possible, for healthy and glowing skin. Cleanse your face two times daily with a gentle cleanser to remove dirt, oil, and impurities. Follow up with a toner to balance your skin’s pH and a moisturizer to hydrate and nourish your skin.
2. Get a facial
Believe it or not, facials will pave the way to your shining day! Deep-cleanse your skin and remove impurities by booking a facial appointment at least a month before the wedding day to give your skin time to recover and take on its best suit and as will you.
3. Rub away the dead!
Grace & Glamour beauticians strongly recommend exfoliating for men. It helps to remove dead skin cells and unclog pores, leaving your skin looking smoother and brighter. Use a gentle exfoliator once or twice a week to avoid irritating your skin.
4. Get a professional shave
A professional shave is the most failproof method to ensure a smooth and close shave without the risk of nicks or razor burns. Schedule a barber appointment with Grace & Glamour a few days before the wedding day to avoid any redness or irritation.
5. Moisturise
Although, we mentioned it already but just to press on its need. Moisturize GUYS! Use a moisturizer with SPF in the morning to protect your skin from harmful UV rays and a moisturizer without SPF at night to hydrate your skin while you sleep.
6. Stay hydrated
Drinking plenty of water is essential for good skin health. Aim to drink at least 8 glasses of water a day to keep your skin looking fresh and glowing.
7. Use eye cream
Boys! You DON’T want puffy eyes or dark Vader caves residing under your eyes during the hectic wedding week! An eye cream can help to reduce puffiness and dark circles around the eyes, making you look more awake and refreshed. Apply a small amount of eye cream under your eyes before bed and in the morning.
8. Sun protection
Just to be sure you don’t end up with different shaded skin all over, make sure to wear sunscreen or a moisturizer with SPF to protect your skin from the sun’s harmful UV rays. Apply it at least 30 minutes before going outside and reapply every two hours if you’re going to be outside for an extended period.
9. Avoid excessive alcohol and smoking
Yup! We know it’s a celebration, but YOU don’t get to drink away or zoom in with a smoke albeit your skin takes on the consequences. Alcohol and smoking can take a toll on your skin, causing it to look dull and dehydrated. Avoid excessive alcohol and smoking leading up to the wedding day for the stunner groom must take the hacks to stun the guests!
10. Get enough sleep
Getting enough sleep is crucial for your skin’s health and appearance. Although it’s difficult but do try to aim for at least 7-8 hours of sleep every night during the wedding week to help reduce dark circles and puffiness around your eyes.
Wedding skincare is not just for brides. Grooms should also take care of their skin and follow a skincare routine to achieve healthy, glowing skin for your special wedding week.
