7 Essential Bridal Beauty Treatments

All eyes (and cameras!) will be on the bride on your big day, so you'll want to look and feel sensational.

Here are 7 easy ways to primp and preen before your wedding.

1. Facial
Why? Slough off those dead skin cells and let your pores breathe for radiant, camera-ready skin.
When?
Facials can cause irritation and red blotching, so if you're a facial virgin, book your first treatment 4-6 months in advance and see how your skin reacts. If you don't have any negative side effects, go ahead and book your bridal facial two weeks before your wedding.  

2. Teeth whitening
Why? Because you'll be doin' a whole lotta smiling on your big day!
When? If you're getting it professionally done at a dentist's office, the treatments might begin 3 months before your wedding. If you're doing an at-home procedure, you'll need to start the brightening process a couple weeks before your wedding.

3. Eyebrow Wax
Why? There's nothing worse than getting all dolled up and having unruly eyebrows. Defined eyebrows are an important part of your bridal beauty, so be sure get them waxed, plucked and trimmed into shape!
When?
3-5 days before your wedding

4. Bikini Wax
Why? We assume you'll be consummating your marriage?! 
When? 3-5 days before your wedding

5. Massage
Why? Your shoulders will be up to your ears after months of rigorous wedding planning and you want to be a relaxed bride. Nothing ruins a gorgeous photograph like poor posture. Plus, releasing the knots in your neck and shoulders will help you stand tall as you walk down the aisle.
When?
2 days before your wedding

6. Manicure

Why? Your bridal look won't be complete without perfectly polished fingernails. Whether you go for a french manicure, something bold or a barely-there pink, you want to make sure you that your hands and fingernails don't get neglected.
When? 1 day before your wedding

7. Pedicure
Why? If you're wearing sandals or peep-toe pumps, you'll want to get your toenails painted for that oh-so-essential stiletto photo opp. Bonus: Your toes will be beach-ready if you're honeymooning in the Caribbean right after the wedding.
When? 1 day before your wedding
