We turned to lifestyle expert and entrepreneur Lisa Hamilton, whose recent wedding was a stunning celebration of love and beauty. As the owner of See Want Shop, Lisa has built a reputation for her effortless style and commitment to self-care. In this exclusive interview, we dug deep into her secrets for achieving that breathtaking bridal glow.
Were there any skin treatments you underwent in the lead up to your big day?
To achieve a flawless complexion on her big day, Lisa credits a dermamelan pigment peel about six weeks prior to the wedding as instrumental in evening out her skin tone and imparting a radiant glow. Furthermore, she invested in regular enzyme and needling treatments throughout the months leading up to the event to maintain healthy, breakout-free skin. Just one week before the wedding, Lisa treated herself to a rejuvenating facial, ensuring her skin was perfectly primed for the special occasion.
What results were you wanting to achieve before the wedding?
The bride revealed her experience with the depigmentation peel, stating it had a profound impact on her skin’s appearance. Not only did it help to revive her complexion’s natural radiance, but it also effectively tackled old acne scars and blemishes, leaving her pores looking refined and even-toned.
What skincare products did you use for your wedding?
Lisa collaborated with the skilled professionals at HÜD Skin + Body to develop an effective skin care regimen tailored to her specific needs. She credited her usual DMK routine, provided by her skin therapist at HÜD, for achieving optimal results. The routine consisted of a gentle yet thorough DMK Milk Cleansing Face Wash, followed by targeted applications of Pore Minimising Drops, Melanon Drops, Beta Gel, Vitamin C, and concluding with a nourishing Moisturiser application.
Any skincare advice for future brides?
To achieve optimal results, I strongly advise booking an appointment with a professional skin facialist at least six months prior to the desired outcome. This allows for the creation of a personalized plan tailored to your specific needs. Additionally, if you’re planning to undergo a significant treatment or overhaul your skincare routine, it’s essential to schedule this at least six weeks in advance, giving your skin ample time to adapt and recover.
What is the biggest skincare lesson you learned?
Lisa collaborated with Gry Tømte, founder and Skin Clinician at HÜD, in the weeks leading up to her special day. With Gry’s expertise, Lisa received valuable guidance on skincare best practices. The most important takeaway? Timing is everything! Gry emphasized the importance of gradual, consistent skincare routines, rather than making drastic changes just before the big day.
By focusing on preparation and experimentation, Lisa was able to find what worked best for her skin type, setting herself up for a radiant wedding day glow.
Any recommended products?
Lisa shares some of her go-to skincare secrets that have earned rave reviews from fans and friends alike. Her top tip is to incorporate retinol into her evening routine, which she credits with making a dramatic impact on tackling acne and leaving her complexion looking smoother than ever.
Another key player in her daily skincare arsenal is Vitamin C gel – a powerhouse ingredient that consistently delivers on its promises of brightening the skin, reducing redness and inflammation, and overall giving Lisa’s skin a radiant glow.
Any recommended treatments?
Enthusiastic endorsements like Lisa’s are not uncommon for enzyme therapy facials, which offer a unique experience that can leave skin looking and feeling incredible. When someone has never tried one before, it’s definitely worth considering, as the results can be truly remarkable.
What is your number 1 beauty secret?
Lisa generously shared her top beauty secret, highlighting the importance of essential fatty acids (EFAs). These vital nutrients are not produced by the body and must be obtained through diet. EFAs work wonders, promoting skin hydration, improving its structure and barrier function. According to Lisa, taking EFA tablets can lead to a noticeable difference in overall skin health. Additionally, she recommends consulting with the team at HÜD to ensure optimal skin preparation for any occasion.
