3 - 6 Months before your Wedding Day

Let's talk about hair growth! Lots of brides want fuller and thicker hair before their big day. Taking a hair supplement such as Hair Gain for 3 months before your wedding day can really help the condition and growth of your hair, not to mention your complexion as well. 
Olga, Founder of Barnet and Boatrace

For longer, thicker and stronger hair

A good skincare routine will really help.  You can invest in bespoke facials (we can put you in touch with some recommended skincare specialists) or you can DIY.  We recommend a good quality cleanser, toner and most importantly daily moisturiser. If you don't know where to start BeautyLab London Essentials 3 step beauty bundle is a great starting point!

3 Days before your Wedding Day

Worried about hair on your upper lip? Any hair removal, waxing or derma planing should be done a minimum of 3 days beforehand to ensure the skin has calmed down and makeup sits better on the face.

2 Days before your Wedding Day

Lusting after a just been to St Tropez for the weekend tan? Ensure you have applied any fake tans at least 2 days beforehand to ensure your tan has settled.

The Night before your Wedding Day

A gentle exfoliation to help remove dead skin cells will really help.  A smooth canvas helps moisturiser sink in, primer sit nicely and foundation stay put.  We recommend BeautyLab London Micropolish Face Rejuvenator.

​If you have very dry skin a moisturising or sheet mask will also help.
Olga, Head Makeup Artist

For a smooth Boatrace

Wash your hair the day or night before avoiding too many styling products or even skip the conditioner for this wash only. If you feel like you have to apply conditioner, ensure it is thoroughly rinsed out!
