1. Do get a massage

Massages stimulate blood flow and improve lymphatic drainage. They are a wonderful way to sneak in an hour of relaxation amidst your hectic schedule a week before the wedding.

Sure, it pretty hectic right now, but don’t be tempted to stay up too late. You need your beauty sleep so you can look well rested and bright on your big day. Plus with enough sleep, you’ll not need to rely too much on a concealer for your dark circles.

It is so important from a health and a beauty perspective. Avoid caffeinated drinks and make sure you drink a lot of water. Switch up the taste by adding anything from lemons to cucumbers to berries to your water bottle. It will taste better and you’ll be able to drink way more of it.

4. Do exfoliate

Your face and your body. Make sure you use a gentle scrub, preferably one containing oils for your body. You’ll end up with smooth, supple skin with a sheen of moisture. Either pick a scrub from a store or make your own using coffee, oils and sugar. Use a chemical exfoliant for your face to slough off the dead cells without any actual abrasion.
