On 22 June 2015

If you’re counting down to the big day and haven’t yet implemented your beauty regime, then let us take over for you. From the brand new day spa to pamper you and your bridal party, to a bespoke spray tan to get you gorgeously glowing, the HFM beauty team has handpicked the latest beauty treatments and services for your camera close-up…

Your Wedding Fragrance

Choosing a signature scent for your special day is made all the more meaningful when the bottle is at beautiful as one of the Jo Malone Lace Bottle Collection’s. Available in 3 different ‘lace’ designs, which adorn 10 of their iconic fragrances, you can book into one of the boutiques for a complementary consultation - or we recommend the Peony & Blush Suede (Peony is the quintessential bridal flower, said to be good luck) and treasure the bottle as a keepsake after.

Your Pamper Day

Book the penthouse suite – on the top floor at the new House Of Elemis Day Spa and indulge in the Beautiful Bride Package which includes a soothing facial, body and hand massage, manicure and HD Brows, whilst your bridesmaids can choose from the extensive beautifying treatment menu too. Alternatively book in by yourself and enjoy a bit of you time amidst wedding planning mayhem.

Your Hair & Makeup Artist

Finding the right beauty team for your big day is no easy task – unless you have someone to do the hard work for you. PRIV, the celebrity favourite beauty app used by Cara Delevigne, Kate Hudson and Millie Mackintosh to name a few, has now introduced a bespoke bridal package to their at-home service. At a purse-friendly price point, you can choose from a whole host of experts who will arrange hair and makeup trials before the big day for you and the bridal party.

Your Bespoke Spray Tan

Book in with tanning expert and celebrity favourite James Harknett for an initial consultation and the most thorough tanning service we have ever received. From a trial, to the custom blending of a tanning shade suitable for you, with aftercare recommendations, there is nothing this man doesn’t know about glow-giving skin. His tan tip? Take along a photo of your dress so he can see how much skin you have exposed on the big day, and after the trial tan, take photos each day to see when the colour looks it’s most natural.
