For all the beautiful girls who are going to be brides soon, Vinnie Kapoor has three important things to share and they are. ” Hydrate, Hydrate and Hydrate”. Have liquids in good quantities for a glowing bridal skin. Another important aspect is to use oils for skin unless you have very oily skin. And lastly, do apply moisturisers and lotions at night. it is the best time when your skin gets to rest and time to heal.

For daily use, she suggests using a Gulabari. Just sprinkle on your skin and see it freshen up. Another therapy could be rubbing ice on your face. If you have applied makeup on your face, then don’t wipe but just dab with tissues for keeping makeup intact.
