fourmonths to go
With fourmonths to go, brides need to stay on track with their bridal countdown and you should be encouraging clients tomake sure they keep coming in for regular skin treatments andmaking sure that they’re stocked up on the products they need.
It’s also time to focus upon any problem areas.Your clients have had a good couple of months now to get into a regular regime and should be beginning to notice a difference, but talk to themabout any areas thatmay be concerning themstill and try and work on these. “These treatments should be spent on problemsolving areas that need extra help,” advisesAnnet. Choose treatments that focus on fine lines or zapping breakouts.
For clients who are suffering from breakouts, try adding Dermalogica’s Overnight Clearing Gel to their regime at this stage, which is an overnight treatment that helps to clear skin, calminflammation and prevent future breakouts by reducing excess sebumand impaction plugs that contribute to congestion.
Nails should also be a consideration at this point for clients that are looking to get the natural nail in tip-top condition and have gorgeous feet in time for the honeymoon.

twomonths to go
With just twomonths to go, brides are beginning to think about (and worry about!) what they will actually look like on the day, so now is the perfect time to encourage themto come in to the salon and try out some ‘looks’ with amake-up trial.
Brett Freedman, celebritymake-up artist expects to see soft, pink lips and cheeks, emulating KateMiddleton’s RoyalWedding look. “Since wedding dresses are usually white, anything used to darken the skin will really pop,” says Brett. “Don’t be afraid to use subtler shades than usual to keep in the ‘soft’ theme.”
Emma Doherty, Jane Iredale Brand Manager, continues: “I love to use colour in bridalmake-up so that the bridesmaids, flowers and overall theme
harmonise.The choice of colour for eyemake-up, foundation, lips and cheeksmust be carefully considered to ensure that it is appropriate for the lighting, the strength of colour at a distance, and that it flatters without looking crude.”
Making the experience a perfect one is also important, even at just the trial point. “When it comes to the ‘bridalmake-over’ don’t under estimate the area where it is carried out and tools used to performit; the bride and the mother-of-the-bride really look forward to this experience, inmany cases itmay be the first time they have visited the salon so first impressions will count,” says Shirley.
“The area in the salon allocated to this can be small, but a lovely throne-like chair with good lighting, goodmirrors and lovely products will impress and create a wonderful experience. Many brides will expect the ‘royal’ treatment so playing up to this will win themover to be a regular in the future.”
Shirley recommends that brides have two trials. “The first to analyse the skin and talk through colours and styles ofmake-up and the second trial to assess the previousmake-over and put right anything the bride wasn’t actually sold
on.Themake-over on the day is then sewn up with colours and styles already listed.”
Royal Effemrecommend their Extreme Lasting Foundation, which has a 12-hour wearing guarantee with an SPF15. It also offers a good coverage with ingredients that have light reflective qualities, as well asmany ingredients that care for the skin, improving hydration and firmness.
