Happy wedding season! Praise the lord for Rent the Runway, recycled prom gowns (pictured above), and my sister’s closet full of sorority mixer frocks.
Whether you’re a bride, part of the party, guest, crasher – whatever – a lot of prep and planning is needed. Lucky for you, I’ve partnered with Influenster to bring you my “unofficial” guide to being your #BestBeautiful come wedding day (or any day for that matter).
With custom, luxury, limited-edition wedding websites offered, RILEY & GREY is the perfect source for couples to take time, be still and #DoYou. Let’s be honest, any site willing to organize guests’ addresses and collect RSVPs sounds good to me.
When it comes to the chore of shaving my legs and washing my hair (okay, showering too), my procrastination skills kick into high. PURE SILK moisturizing Shaving Cream gets the job done better than ever. The deliciously scented fragrances and added aloe really help give you the smoothest most touchable legs. How corny do I sound right now?
ECOTOOLS Pure Complexion Facial Sponge is the Asian secret that beauty editors are raving about. This is a new, unique way (for me at least) to achieve smooth, refreshed skin. I’ve been using this both morning and night (mixed in with my regular facial cleanser) to wash away dirt, oil and my makeup. My skin can be quite sensitive at times, but I have yet to see any redness or irritation from the sponge – just a gorgeous glow (had to add to the corn factor you guys)! I typically follow this up with OLAY Regenerist Luminous Tone Perfecting Cream to hydrate my skin. This fast-absorbing, lightly-scented moisturizer can be used for brightening and skin tone improvement as well. Some moisturizers can be greasy, and this one is not, which is why I love it.
A few necessary items to shove into your Charlotte Olympia clutch for the big day.. I’ve been such a sucker for pastels recently, and SALLY HANSEN’s Barracuda nail polish is my latest end all, be all shade. Literally haven’t switched colors in two weeks – no lie. Another item tiny and paramount enough to toss into that clutch is a TIDE TO GO stick. If you’ve ever used one, you’ll agree it’s a miracle worker. If you’ve yet to take a crack, do so stat – it’s life changing – and the bride will love you for it if there’s any red wine splashes or spray tans gone wrong.
