BRIDAL BEAUTY BLACK BOOK

THREE MONTHS BEFORE

Forget diets and deprivation. Eat green stuff, move more and invest in a course of Remodelage. This manual slimming and toning technique isn’t the most comfortable of treatments, but it’s one of the most efficient in terms of refining and toning. Available at Grace Belgravia (£180 per session, gracebelgravia.com).

A gentler inch-loss treatment is EF Medispa’s Vibrosculpt. It breaks down cellulite and kick-starts sluggish lymphatic systems, providing results in as few as three treatments (from £120, efmedispa.com).

Meghan’s facialist Nichola Joss tells me that educating yourself in the art of facial massage using Lumity Facial Oil or Decléor’s range of natural oils is one of the most significant things you can do – alongside investing in Glopro Facial Tool (£199, currentbody.com).

ONE MONTH BEFORE

You can ramp up any non-panicky slimming you want to achieve with a vitamin-b-rich Digestion Injection at Nosh Detox (£89, noshdetox.com), which helps you break through a weightloss plateau, and follow that with up to four weeks’ worth of Nosh’s Sugar Detox delivery plan (£317.46). With protein-rich meals, snacks and smoothies, you don’t feel lethargic.

A WEEK BEFORE

Have your facial – preferably with Joss, whose 60-minute Bespoke Sculpting Inner Facial left me with definition I didn’t know I had, even 10 days later (£250, nicholajoss.com).

THE DAY BEFORE

Have a Le Salon therapist come to your home for a Bridal Polish mani-pedi and jitter-reducing hand and foot massage (£85, lesalon.com).

ON THE DAY

Anne Semonin’s Precious Pearl Ice Cubes are like collagen-infused cryotherapy for your face. Freeze them and run over your face in the morning. Ten minutes later your face is luminous and tight (£70 for six, annesemonin.com).

I swear by Klorane’s cornflower-infused Eye Patches. Soothing and refreshing, they will banish pre-wedding insomni-eye in 20 minutes (£11.50 for a pack of seven, amazon.co.uk).

If you’re going to invest in a professional hair and make-up artist (which I don’t advise – you want to look like you), insist they use Chantecaille’s Cheek Gelée in Happy (£36, spacenk.com) – the only blush I’ve found that works in natural light – Byterry’s Hyaluronic Hydra Powder (£42, feelunique.com) applied with fingertips at the very last minute to blur any lines, rosacea or enlarged pores, and Kérastase’s new Serum Extentioniste (from £49.50, kerastase.co.uk), to make sure flyaways don’t ruin the wedding pictures.

Lastly: vodka – 5cl only of Grey Goose Original (£4.49, justminiatures.co.uk). It’s the only Dutch courage the priest won’t smell on your breath.
