Number Two. Teeth whitening is one of those beauty rituals we all realize needs to be tended to when a picture of coffee and wine stained teeth shows up on Facebook.

Number Three. Longer lashes are another concern for brides with fine hair. Products like Latisse fill shopping baskets everywhere. However, if you are a blue eyed bride, do you really want to take a chance on losing your gorgeous eye pigment? No way!
3 Day Beauty Fix: Fake Lashes
Here’s the skinny on fake lashes. They are so much more amazing than the $0.99 ones you purchased when you were ten. These lashes are individually placed on your lash line. They look completely natural and are comfortable. Individual lashes achieve the same affect in ten minutes, as six months of expensive products. And, you don’t have to risk your signature eye color to have them.

Number Four. Breakouts are bound to happen. The amount of stress you are putting on your body is enormous. She may fight back with a big fat zit. Resist the urge to pop it. There is not much you can do about it except fight the red. Get a good acne gel at the drugstore and apply as often as it allows you too. Don’t over apply. Worse than a huge zit, is a dry spot.

Number Five. Nails are one item that brides-to-be start worrying over early in the engagement. Let’s be honest – as soon as the ring is locked and loaded on the designated finger we are hitting the nail salon! You can splurge on weekly cuticle trimmings and polish, however, for budget brides this might get cut from the beauty budget.
3 Day Beauty Fix: Acrylic Nails
Up to a week before the wedding, head to your nail salon and get a fake pair of nails applied. The key to making them look real is to keep the length realistic and the edges rounded. Remember to pack hand lotion to keep your cuticles fresh and soft all day.
There you have it ladies – sure you can prep for the entire 12 months of your engagement, but just remember…it’s never too late to call in the professionals.
