Banish dry skin this winter. Remember to drink plenty of water in the months leading up to your wedding to make sure your skin is thoroughly hydrated. Mild exfoliation once a week will get rid of any dry, dead skin cells, while a rich moisturizer will keep it soft and smooth for a perfect canvas. Apply twice or thrice if required. Take a break from SPF products to avoid skin paleness. Invest in retinol and AHA-based good moisturizers that fight aging and boost collagen in the skin.

A hot water bath is like heaven in winters. But washing your hair with hot water can turn into a disaster. Make a habit of washing your hair with cold or warm water to make it less frizzy. It would be better for your hair to use an oil-based moisturizer to lock in extra moisture. It will help to nourish your hair better and will make them healthy. Always massage your hair before washing them with oil. You can also use gel to hydrate them. This routine will make your hair stronger and shiny.

Wedding functions mean different shades of lipsticks for different days. Avoid chapped and dry lips by exfoliating them and apply lip balm regularly to get fuller lips. Look for natural balms that contain real moisturizers like vitamin E, shea butter, honey, coconut oil, propolis, and beeswax. Try body butter and bathing oils additionally to improve blood circulation.
Keep Warm

Cold weather can expose you to having red cheeks or sniffles. Make sure to keep yourself warm. Have hot cacao as often as possible. Overdress to not get caught by flu. Eat plenty of nutrient-rich fruits and vegetables to keep your immune system strong and wash your hands regularly throughout the day.
