Meghan Markle's facialist reveals how she'll get her pre-wedding glow
"She really looks after herself, and I think it shows"
Monday 8 January 2018
Meghan Markle already has an envy-inducing complexion, but she'll still be enlisting the help of her friend and beauty expert, London-based facialist Nichola Joss, before she ties the knot.
The former Suits star will marry Prince Harry at Windsor Castle on May 19, and all eyes will most definitely be on her.
Meghan has previously said Nichola's facials are "the best in the world" and attributes her "sculpted" cheek bones and jawline to her facial massage routines.
Speaking to Marie Claire about her skincare advice for brides-to-be, Nichola said: "If you have troublesome skin, and you need some corrective work, like if you have acne or scarring, you need to start working on a routine at least four or five months before the big day, seeing your facialist every two weeks to get your skin in the best condition you can.

The secrets behind that glow.
"You want to start getting regular massages from the beginning of your skincare journey. Since it not only helps remove the tension in the face, but it also really helps improve the texture of when you massage with a good, clean facial oil."

"Anything corrective, like acid peels, intense microdermabrasion, or laser treatments, should be done between three-to-five months before the wedding, but not closer," explained Nichola.
Speaking of the weeks leading up to the wedding, she said: "The last two months before your wedding should be focused on getting calmer, more hydrated skin, rather than getting more aggressive with your face, since corrective treatments can require a ton of downtime and healing."
"Meghan has the most amazing skin," she added. "She really looks after herself, and I think it shows."
We can't wait to see her full beauty look on the big day.
