Sleep with a silk pillowcase as early as possible to keep that hair healthy and undamaged.

Use a filtered shower head as early as possible! This helps to prevent hard water damage and build-up.

Start using mouth tape as early as possible! Not only does it improve sleep but this brand also includes a lip mask for some lip plumping
Queen Mouth Tape - Amazon.com
I also love this mouth tape if you're a beginner because it didn't make me feel as suffocated as a full mouth strip. I was able to get used to sleeping with mouth tape with these!

Hair mask with this 4-5 days before the wedding

Now that you've prepped your skin for the perfect self-tan base the day before, apply 1-2 layers of this mousse with a tanning mitt and let develop for 1-3 hours. I prefer to leave it on for 3 hours for the darkest tan!
3.3 oz Self Tan Express Bronzing Mousse - St. Tropez | Ulta Beauty
This is the glove I use for the tanning mousse. I love that it has a smaller area around the wrist to keep the mitt on while applying product.
