A very simple and effective home remedy would be to put fresh Aloe Vera gel on the face and do icing post that. This would help you keep your open pores & acne in check, and as a result get a glowing and smooth skin!

Shradha Luthra from Doll You Up By S says

I always ask my brides to gently rub ice on their face before I begin their makeup. This tighten the pores and improves blood circulation which helps in adding that natural glow! It’s simple and very effective. Another thing that makes a world of a difference is making sure your water intake is 3 litres. It does wonders to the skin! Besides that really small changes like switching up your regular pillow case to a silk helps your skin stay healthy and reduce the appearance of lines

A great and easy diy to help rid of those under eye bags & puffiness is coffee + egg white! It works wonders.

Taking care of her skin & hair should be a bride's priority before the wedding. And one of the easiest ways to do that is by following the  “Triple cleanse” technique, which means using:

• Makeup Remover first
• Followed by an Exfoliating Scrub
• & then a Mild Face Wash

Bianca Louzado from Bianca Louzado Creative Make-up and Hair Design★ 5 says

I believe that a bride should follow the K-beauty regimen to be able to achieve a GLASS SKIN. Read out these simple steps and try out at home:

• ‘Layering’ the skin with hydrating products such as toners, serums (highly recommend the pixie beauty glow tonic ), Beauty oils, moisturisers and hydrating mists is the key.
• Using a Vitamin C serum during the day. 
  My recommendations: Olehenriksen Truth serum
• Add a Glass serum to your bed time skincare treatment
  My recoommendations: Peach & Lily or L’occitane immortele reset serum
• Use a beauty elixir
  My Recommendations: Tatcha Gold Camellia Oil, Tarte Maracuja Oil
• Get your hands on a gel moisturiser or an oil-free moisturiser depending upon your skin type.
• Include a lot of high-protein legumes and fruits in your diet because what goes inside your body has a lot to do with what appears on your face. So, in order to get that natural glow, eat healthy. You can even consult a nutritionist and and get a diet plan in place. 

Phew! Those were some really helpful tips, and while we suggest you to save them for yourself, we're taking them down too!
