How to prepare your skin for the big day
An interview with Beautician and Make up artists Pina de Gabrieli
Weddings are one of the most important and memorable events in life. You want to look your
best and feel confident on your big day. But how do you achieve that flawless and radiant
skin that every bride dreams of?
To find out, we asked Pina de Gabrieli, a professional beautician and makeup artist with
more than 20 years of experience. She is also a partner of WeddingsinItaly.co.uk, a leading
wedding planner company that offers personalized and tailor-made services for couples who
want to get married in Italy. Here are some of her tips and insights on how to prepare your
skin for your wedding day.
Facial cleansing is necessary before the wedding.
Pina says that facial cleansing is essential to create an optimal base for the application and
hold of makeup. It also removes greyness and ensures a brighter complexion and better
texture. She recommends performing microdermabrasion, a gentle exfoliation technique that
removes dead skin cells and stimulates collagen production.
Do facial cleansing at least 15 days before the wedding.
Pina advises to do facial cleansing at least 15 days before the big day, to avoid any possible
irritation or redness. She also suggests to avoid sun exposure, waxing, or any other
aggressive treatments that could damage the skin.
Exfoliate and moisturize the day before the wedding.
The day before the wedding, Pina recommends to perform an exfoliation combined with a
mask specific to the skin type. She says that it is important to use a product that has been
tested before, to avoid any surprises or allergies. She also advises to use a product that
guarantees an immediate lifting effect, as well as an SPF that protects against UVA rays.
Choose a makeup that suits your style and personality.
Pina says that the makeup should enhance the natural beauty of the bride, not cover it up.
She suggests to choose a makeup that matches the style and personality of the bride, as
well as the theme and colors of the wedding. She also says that it is important to do a trial
before the wedding, to make sure that everything is perfect and harmonious.
