Wedding Beauty Tips for Bride to Be
Today we will share with you the best secret tips for a per-wedding beauty preparation for bride to be, remember that every bride is a star of her wedding.
Months are spent on deciding the wedding date, the invitation lists, and the decorations. The thoughts of her clothing and accessories consume the bride’s every waking moment. In the midst of all the planning and organizing, the bride forgets the most important thing to take care of – herself.
Facial & Hair Spa
1. CTM
Cleansing, toning, and moisturizing should regularly be done without fail. This will keep your skin glowing and youthful. A clean and dirt-free face will help keep your pores open. This will help your skin to breathe better. Follow up with toning that will help tighten the pores. Toning also reduces fine lines to some extent. Lastly, moisturizing the face helps lock in the moisture into the pores, keeping your skin soft and supple. Also, make sure that you apply sunscreen diligently.
2. Exfoliation
Exfoliation is one of the best ways of getting skin that is free from dead cells and black heads. Make sure that you exfoliate your skin before using a face wash two or three times a week. Use a mild face wash. A harsh one can irritate the skin and give you rashes. You can also use a homemade scrub made of rice flour or whole wheat flour, or a mixture of both to exfoliate the skin.
3. Facial And Hair Spa
Start getting monthly facials from at least six months before the wedding. If you have less time left in hand, opt for a bi-weekly gold facial. Always ask for a patch test before applying any new products on your skin. For healthy and shiny looking hair, start getting a hair spa done once a month and like the facials, start this treatment at least six months before the wedding. If you do not prefer chemical hair spas, there are many homemade masks that you can use to get some shine in your hair.
4. Clinical Sittings And Homemade Treatments
If you have too many marks or spots on the skin, then clinical sittings will be your gateway to getting a fairer and spot-free skin quickly. Opt for professional treatments for patchy skin, sunburns, and pigmentation. Microdermabrasion treatments from professional aestheticians is also a good fix for scars and blemishes. Start your treatments at least six months before the wedding for fine lines, wrinkles, or even acne. After the required number of sittings, try out homemade facial packs to maintain the spot-free look. Maintain the glow by preparing some fruit facial packs with mashed strawberries, mashed apples, or mashed papaya. Home beauty tips for brides are the best way to make sure that the effect of the clinical treatment stays.
5. Beautiful Hands And Feet
Keep your hands and feet soft by massaging olive oil on them before going to sleep at night. This will get rid of the dry skin on your hands and feet. During bathing, make sure that you use a pumice stone on your feet. Polished nails of both hands and feet give an added appeal to your look. You must certainly maintain clean and polished nails through bi-weekly or monthly manicures and pedicures.
6. Hair Removal
Keep yourself well groomed. This applies to your legs and hands from which you usually remove hair. Keep your eyebrows in shape. Sudden hair removal of any part of the body can give you small cuts or rashes. Whichever process you use for hair removal, maintain that bi-weekly or monthly, as per the requirement.

Long ago, in the 15th century, a masquerade function was known as a carnival, and this kind of event or celebration took place at weddings and social affairs within medieval societies. The costume extravaganza consisted of parades and pageants for the elite of the medieval era, including the participation of members of the medieval court, who also dressed up in disguise as they partied.
Masquerades include lots of music and dancing. They are used for entertainment purposes as well as in celebrating rituals, such as the rites of passage and speaking to the dead as in the African tradition and cultural heritage. These big lavish parties always took place in the evening and the environment was that of gaiety, and the other things that made it so gay were the eating, drinking and gambling.

Beyonce Knowles for nearly two decades,has been an indomitable force at the Grammy Awards. From commanding the red carpet with her chameleonic beauty to her mic-drop moments onstage, the 20-time golden gramophone winner has left her mark on every ceremony she’s attended. And with Queen Bey up for Best/Rap Collaboration for “Family Feud” alongside husband Jay Z, who leads the nominees with eight nods, 2018 is bound to be no different. So what better time to revisit the megastar’s most unforgettable looks? Though very much in sync with her Destiny’s Child bandmates as she made her Grammys debut in 2000, Bey was a standout from the start with her fresh glow and cascade of honey-streaked waves. But it’s when she struck out as a solo artist that she really came into her own.
During her 2007 performance of “Listen,” the stunning ballad she sang in her film Dreamgirls, she looked every bit the screen siren with taupe smoky eyes and an ivory floral hair ornament affixed in her long, glossy waves. In 2008, she went blonde and chopped a few inches off her signature mane for a cool, shoulder-grazing length that showed of her décolleté and sculpted arms to powerful effect. And in 2014, Bey really made jaws drop when she, with her drenched curly chop and rock solid post-baby figure, and Jay Z opened the show performing their smash single “Drunk in Love.”

Apply Shampoo To Dry Hair To Remove Wax
The best way to deal with wax is to apply shampoo to dry hair and rinse, then follow this with another application of shampoo.

You must always invest in an afro comb or else grooming will be very painful, an afro comb’s teeth are specifically designed to detangle large clumps of curly hair that no other brush or comb can. We also suggest using a conditioner at least once a week to lock in moisture.
Carry A Comb
Here is a cheeky hair tip for fellas always carry a comb with you, in the event of a hair crisis, most styling products can be reactivated by wetting a comb and running it through your barnet to re-style.
Protect Hair When In The Pool
Chlorine chemically bonds with the proteins in the hair and causes the cuticle to lift, which makes hair dry, brittle and dull, to minimise chlorine’s effects, we recommend wetting hair thoroughly with clean water before swimming, as this dilutes the chemical. Or try applying a small amount of conditioner before diving in.
