Over her 20 year reign as the Queen of Facials, Linda Meredith has worked with some of the world’s most famous women such as Gywneth Paltrow, Madonna, Stella McCartney and Sienna Miller, including helping a number of
A-listers get ready for their walk down the aisle. As a legendary skincare expert, Linda Meredith knows how to help brides look radiant on their big day and here she gives her top tips for a glowing complexion this summer to Vows & Venues.
Says Linda Meredith – perhaps unsurprisingly it begins with SPF.
SPF Is a topical product that remains on the surface to protect the skin. Rather than seeking out a face cream that includes both- I recommend keeping them separate. Apply your SPF after moisturiser allowing active ingredients to penetrate and work at their optimum level. Keeping in mind that SPF can clog pores and cause acne - Irecommend you always use a PABA free formula to prevent any breakouts.http://www.lindameredith.com/spf-45.html
HYDRATING
MIST . This is a must have for a hot summer wedding. It’s a perfect spray to have on hand during the big day to keep you looking cool and fresh. Water sprays may cool the skin but will actually de-hydrate it as the water evaporates. The Linda Meredith Hydrating Mist contains Hyaluronic Acid which attracts and holds moisture keeping the skin hydrated throughout the day.http://www.lindameredith.com/hydrating-mist.html
Invest in an EYE GEL Summer is the season of squinting - even behind those designer sunglasses so looking after the fine skin around the eyes to prevent fine lines and the skin drying out is essential. The Linda Meredith eye gel can be re-applied throughout the day directly over the top lid and around the lash line to soothe and cool tired eyes for all the outdoor photos you can handle. Contains three active ingredientsto combat fine lines, puffiness and dark circles for daily use all year round.http://www.lindameredith.com/eye-gel.html
