Best Bridal Skincare

Bioderma

Game Changer: One of the essential steps to look flawless on your big day is skincare and its first step – cleansing. Bioderma H2O is an absolute must-have to prepare your skin before make-up, to cleanse it post-wedding and to take on your honeymoon! Sensibio H2O removes make-up, gently cleanses the skin from pollution, heavy metals and pollen, all while respecting the skin’s balance.

Created in 1995, Sensibio H2O is the original micellar water, and a favourite among dermatologists, make-up artists and celebrities worldwide, from Victoria Beckham to Margot Robbie.

Best Bridal Dental

Smile Hub

Judge’s Pick – Kayla Walsh

Every bride wants to feel confident about her smile on her wedding day, and Smile Hub can help you get the pearly whites of your dreams! Teeth whitening can be done one month before the big day, while Invisalign Clear Aligners take at least 12 months to complete, so it pays to plan ahead rather than resorting to last-minute solutions which may damage the enamel on your teeth.

A happy newlywed couple

Smile Hub’s exclusive world leading Teeth Whitening will have you ready for your close-up – you won’t regret it!
