Wedding skincare prep: achieve radiant, glowing skin with red light therapy

Your wedding day is one of the most photographed—and cherished—moments of your life. Naturally, you want to look and feel your absolute best. While dress fittings and makeup trials often top the list, skincare prep is just as important. That bridal glow everyone talks about? It’s not just makeup—it’s about healthy, radiant skin from within.

Enter: red light therapy, a bride’s best-kept secret to achieving smoother, brighter, and more youthful-looking skin without invasive treatments or downtime.

Why red-light therapy is a bridal must-have

Red light therapy uses low-level wavelengths of light to penetrate deep into the skin, stimulating collagen production, reducing inflammation, and promoting cellular repair. With consistent use leading up to your big day, it can help:

• Smooth fine lines and wrinkles
• Even out skin tone and texture
• Reduce puffiness and dark circles
• Calm redness and boost circulation
• Deliver a natural, lit-from-within glow

When should you start?

We recommend starting your red-light therapy routine at least 8–12 weeks before your wedding for best results. Think of it like training for an event—consistency is key! Most users begin to see noticeable improvements in tone, texture, and radiance within 4 weeks. In recent SmoothSkin clinical studies, 96% of users agreed their skin looked brighter and more refreshed after 4 weeks.

Incorporating red-light therapy into your skincare routine

With SmoothSkin’s LED Eye Patches and Red-Light Therapy Devices, it’s easier than ever to fit effective treatments into your busy bridal schedule.

Use your red light therapy device 3–5 times a week, for only 10 minutes per session. You can do this during your morning routine while sipping coffee, or as part of your relaxing nighttime wind-down.

The final countdown: one week before

In the final week, red light therapy becomes your calm-in-the-chaos moment. It’s great for soothing any pre-wedding stress breakouts, depuffing tired eyes after your bachelorette, and giving your complexion a fresh, glowy finish.

Many brides have added SmoothSkin red light therapy into their pre-wedding beauty prep  and were thrilled with the results. From smoother foundation application to “you’re glowing!” compliments, it’s a simple secret that makes a major difference.
