Four Beauty Treatments I Want To Splurge On For My Wedding

*This is a collaborative post on beauty treatments I want to splurge on for my wedding

I’m pretty low maintenance when it comes to beauty treatments. There’s nothing I do with any form of regularity, and even when I do it’s pretty low key and cheap. My hair is cut when it needs a cut which is around 3-4 times a year tops. And I go to my hairdresser’s house to get it done so I don’t pay very much. I’d love to get my nails done every month but I just can’t justify the price. I only get my shellac done when it’s a special occasion like a holiday or someone’s wedding. And while I should get my eyebrows threaded regularly I haven’t found anywhere local to me that does it.

Next May is when me and Luke get married which feels so exciting to say. And ahead of our wedding, I want to get a few beauty treatments as both a treat, but also to make me feel as amazing on the day as possible. Here are some that I am considering having done.

Laser hair removal

I’ve had some laser hair removal before but I didn’t have a lot of treatments and I didn’t keep up with the top-ups, but I would love to go for more laser hair removal in the lead up to the wedding. I’d love to get my underarms and legs done primarily, but also my bikini. It would save having to go and get waxed when I’m going on holiday!

For something like laser hair removal you want to go to somewhere good so I’d probably head into London to get mine. NYLC is London’s leading provider of advanced, medical-grade laser hair removal treatment. Their gold standard lasers provide long-lasting, effective and pain-free hair removal suitable for every skin type.

They say you need around 6 seasons to see the most impact and then a top-up session once or twice a year. So I’d probably need t start getting any laser done towards the end of the summer 2022 to be ready for my wedding.

Beauty treatments I want – LVL lashes / Lash lift

Fake eyelashes just aren’t for me as I can’t put them on properly and I find them quite heavy on my lashes. But I would absolutely love to have some form of treatment to make my natural lashes look better. And to help my eye makeup to sit better.

LVL lashes are the same as a lash lift just using a specific brand products. But having the treatment gives you length, volume and lift. The lashes are covered in a serum that straightens them from the root, but rather than straightening gives them a curled look. Then the lashes are tinted, and if they need it some individual lash extensions can be added too.

As you can’t get your lashes wet for a few days after or wear mascara I would probably get this done around a week before my wedding.

Or I may look at doing my lashes myself with this lash serum.

Dermaplaning treatment

Now I do my own dermaplaning at home, but before my wedding, I’d love to get it done properly. What it is a deep exfoliation on the skin using a scalpel that scrapes away the top layer of the skin, removing dirt and peach fuzz hair. Afterwards, the skin is super soft and it glows. Afterwards skincare products sink into the skin better and makeup sits better on the face. This is why I want it done before my wedding.

I’d probably get this done around a week before the wedding as well to give my skin loads of time to breathe after the treatment.

Beauty treatments- shellac nails

And of course, I’ll be going to get my nails and toes done before my wedding. There’s nothing better than beautiful and neat nails. I know that I won’t be getting my nails to match our main two colours as they’re quite dark/ bright. And it won’t look right if I’m wearing a white wedding dress. But potentially a lighter version of one of them or just a super simple french polish/ glitter sweep on my fingernails.

To make sure my nails stay looking perfect I’ll probably get these done 1-2 days before the wedding. Hopefully, then there’s no chance of me ruining or damaging them.
