The BD team’s must-have products for all brides-to-be.
Sisley Paris
The wonderful rich and melting texture of Sisley L’Intégral Anti-Àge is only the start of this lovely new moisturiser. Formulated to be used both day and night, L’Intégral has over 17 years of research behind it to successfully target both genetic and behavioural ageing - so you can literally smooth away a misspent student youth of smoking, poor diet and partying through the night! It’s the perfect moisturiser in the lead-up to the big day, I especially love the natural fragrance of lavender and marjoram which I am convinced helps me to enjoy a good night's sleep - which is crucial for all brides! - Janet
Clarins
I’ve got something to admit, I’m a little bit addicted to my eyebrow artist. She shapes and colours my brows like nobody’s business. And when you have a pro artist working on your brows, it makes sense you only stick to the best-of-the-best when it comes to tools for enhancing their good work. The Clarins Eyebrow Pencil is one of the ultimate brow tools I’ve come across yet. On one end it has a pencil with a smooth texture that applies easily and gives a natural finish. On the other is a spiral brush that grooms and tames. What makes this one even more perfect (and why it’s ideal for the wedding season) is it also has a long-wearing formula. Any brides-to-be should definitely include this in their arsenal for the big day. - Yelena
What does a wedding signify? A photo opportunity! It doesn’t matter whether you are in the bridal party or not, we all know at a wedding there’s a huge chance you will feature in a smattering of pictures. Rescuing those with chompers that aren’t quite looking pearly white is Oral-B 3D White Advanced Seal Whitestrips. The flexible whitening strips adhere to your teeth, coating them in the enamel-safe ingredient used at the dentist, and bidding goodbye to stubborn stains for a Hollywood smile. - Sarah
Make-up will always aid in making a bride look beautiful for her big day, but I’m all about starting with the perfect base - your skin. Afterall your make-up will come off after your special night, but your skin won’t! It is so important to prepare which is why I’m so glad I came across MonoDermà’s E5 capsules. Their lightweight formula assists in soothing and hydrating dry, sensitive skin (which is something I suffer from) and in the process also prevents fine lines and wrinkles (which is probably something I’ll eventually suffer from too). The vitamin E also enhances and assists with the penetration of other topical products which is why I’ll be reaching for this baby well ahead of my big day! - Sophia
If I ever get married (if being the operative word), I want to be so tanned I resemble a Grecian goddess. That said, I don’t want my colour looking a la Jersey Shore, which is why my tan choice will always be St. Tropez for my big day. Green-based, the colour is the most natural on the market and the super-fine formulation with 360-degree spray technology is so easy to use (no streaky legs or white patches on your back with this one). The end result is a flawless, bronzed bod that you can deepen with multiple applications. - Kelly
