Vision Direct, the UK’s leading online retailer for contact lenses, has shared with us a few tips for beautiful bridal eyes on your wedding day. Follow these tips to get sparkling, beautiful eyes the morning of your wedding day.

 

Apply soothing treatments

 

Soothe your eyes with cold water and ice cubes wrapped in a muslin cloth. Cold water and ice will help reduce swelling and inflammation, and reduce puffiness around the eyes. Press an ice cube against your eyes for against 10 minutes. If it gets too cold, take a small break. Afterwards, pat your eyes dry with with a towel. You can also use a frozen spoon to help reduce puffiness.

 

Just as ice can help reduce swelling, you can also use cucumber slices on your eyes before the big day. Cucumbers have always been used as a remedy for puffy eyes and contain antioxidants that help reduce irritation. The cold helps to reduce puffiness. All you need to do is put cucumber slices in a plastic bag and chill them in the refrigerator before applying.

 

Soaked tea bags left to chill in the fridge are also a great solution for reducing puffiness the evening before.

 

Brighten your eyes

 

One way to brighten your eyes on the day is with brightening eye drops. You can use drops before applying eye makeup or inserting your contact lenses. These drops will help to restore your eye’s natural brightness and will work quickly to instantly lubricate and brighten your eyes. 

 

Enhance your eye colour

 

You can bring out the colour of your eyes with makeup or even coloured contact lenses. There are certain contacts that will help bring out your natural colour and also complement it by making your eyes appear larger. They will also add shine and definition to your eye colour.

 

Rest up before your big day

 

Try getting a solid eight hours sleep to prevent any symptoms of tired eyes. A lack of sleep will decrease the blood flow in the skin surrounding your face. With a good night's rest you will have glowing eyes and complexion on your wedding day since blood will flow to the skin while you sleep.

 

Let your eyes shine! 

 

Enjoy your special day and remember how gorgeous you are.
