Kaya Skin Clinic offers bridesof 2017 expert tips, which they should start with NOW forbeautiful skin on their big day

The Big Day is approaching and we see future brides dashing around organizing the special event. However, their top priority is to look beautiful because all eyes and cameras will be on them. Fortunately they can count on the professional advice of expert dermatologists from Kaya Skin Care.

Looking gorgeous on your special day should not start on the wedding eve at the beauticians. Kaya recommends that you give your skin some tender loving care at least 3 months in advance.

Staying stress-free is where it all begins.Hectic planning activities can release hormones that are known to produce that oily substance sebum which cause  break-outs and blemishes. The best solution is to chill out, take long walks, dive into hobbies and find some sort of entertainment that brings on the smiles.

The run up to the wedding is packed with parties, dinners, shopping etc. which can be demanding. So make sure you getat least 8 hoursof that beauty sleep. The last thing you want is those dark rings around your eyes. Even grab a few cat naps during the day.

Now that you’re all loved up,those romantic messages and calls with Prince Charming can go on well into the night. This can reduce the production of melatonin, the sleep inducing hormone. Did you know that phones carry bacteria which in turn can cause acne or spots on your face? Yes they do so be sensible and use your phone sparingly and clean them with antiseptic wipes from time to time.

And watch that sun. Research suggests that overexposure to sunlight can cause dryness, sunburn, hyperpigmentation and premature ageing of the skin. So the best defence against the sun is to use a sunblock. Speak to a Kaya skincare advisor who will recommend the right sunblock for you.

The wonderful thing about skin is that it can renew itself. The answer lies in exfoliation or scrubbing to get ridof all the dry cells. Regular exfoliation provides radiant, youthful skin free of dirt and pollutants.

Lunches, dinners and parties are all part of pre-wedding celebrations so watch out for what you eat and drink. Take time to eat smart; make sure you get enough of carbohydrates, proteins, vitamins, fats and sugars. Also milk, fruit and sugars. Speak with a dietician who will suggest a well-balanced diet including anti-oxidants.

Nothing can be better for appealing complexion than water so make sure you get your 8 glasses a day. Water helps to flush out toxins, making skin look smooth, firm and radiant. Replace sugary carbonated drinks with green tea, vegetables and fruits. Watermelon is great too. But please stay clear of alcohol – it will only serve to dehydrate you.

And please, please don’t try to be your own beauty expert and experiment with creams and skin treatments. This often ends in disaster. The safe option is to consult with a dermatologist who will recommend a course that best suited to individual needs.

They say real beauty comes from within so it advisable to make quality time for yourself and spend some quiet hours with close family. The other option is meditation, stress management sessions and perhaps yoga.

The thing to bear in mind is that proper skincare should not stop after your wedding day. Make sure it continues through the honeymoon period as well. Kaya Skin Clinic has vast experience with preparing brides for their special day and beyond and is running special offers to make the brides look naturally beautiful on their wedding day.
