Starting a New Routine Too Close to the Wedding
The single most common bridal skincare mistake happens around the two-month mark: a bride reads about a vitamin C serum or a retinol cream, buys it, and starts using it immediately. Skin takes four to six weeks to adjust to any active ingredient. In the first two weeks, purging is normal, small breakouts, flaking, redness. On a random Tuesday, that is manageable. A week before the wedding, it is a disaster with no exit.
