Whether bride or wedding guest – we want to feel comfortable in any case. We tested four beauty innovations to see how perfectly they fit into a wedding.

????? (5/5)
Product: Honey Infused Leave-In Conditioner by Gisou
Price: 30 euro
Optics: A dream of pink and white: the packaging is simple, delicate and a visual highlight in every bathroom cabinet.
Application: Spray into towel-dried hair after showering, then comb. Allow to dry briefly before blow-drying or straightening the hair.
Perfect for the wedding because: In addition to the outfit and make-up, the hair at a wedding must also be perfect – regardless of whether you are a bride or a guest. For me, the conditioner is a super secret weapon. Because it not only detangles, provides moisture and reduces frizz. Misraheli honey and argan oil additionally seal the hair and reduce hair breakage.

???? (4/5)
Product: Laura Mercier Roseglow Highlighting Powder
Price: about 32 euros
Optics: The limited highlighter in rose gold packaging is super handy and the packaging looks very high quality. Definitely something to look at!
Application: With a narrow highlighter brush, I prefer to apply the highlighter to the cheekbones, the arch of the eyebrows and the inner corner of the eye. If you want, you can also apply it as an eye shadow. Simply put your finger on the eyelid – and you’re done. The glow becomes more intense if you apply setting spray to the face beforehand and apply the highlighter to the “wet” base.
Perfect for the wedding because: The highlighter has a soft shimmer and a soft pink undertone. It doesn’t look overdone or too natural. The texture melts really nicely into the skin, so the glow goes perfectly with a wedding make-up or the look of the guests. However: If you don’t like pink, you’ll have to use another product, since the undertone of the highlighter can be seen discreetly on the face. Still a top product for me!

???? (4/5)
Product: James Read Sleep Mask Tan for the body
Price: about 36 euros
Optics: This self-tanner does without color explosion and tropical images. Simple, as I like it, it comes in white and gold. The pink applicator fits perfectly.
Application: Apply the serum to the applicator and work the product into the skin, preferably in the evening before going to bed, but also after the shower. Wait a moment for the self-tanning body mask to dry and your beauty sleep can begin.
Perfect for the wedding because: If the weather doesn’t play along, our summer tan won’t work either. Since my skin is naturally very light, I help with the complexion a bit. To protect the skin, I use self-tanners – not the strong ultra-tanners, but the delicate products that conjure up a complexion that looks like it has been kissed by the sun. If you prefer a strong tanning effect, you are at the wrong address with this product.
Like a warm hug For fashion and beauty editor Ann, the right scent is the be-all and end-all. ©PR
???? (4/5)
Product: Vanilla Diorama Eau de Parfum by Christian Dior
Price: 40 ml for 98 euros to 250 ml for 315 euros
Optics: The Maison Christian Dior perfumes all come in the iconic bottle. The simple glass bottle with a black lid and white label is pure elegance and so timelessly beautiful that it is a pleasure to show it off.
Application: The opulent Vanilla Diorama fragrance pays homage to Diorama Gourmand, one of Christian Dior’s favorite desserts. It smells like vanilla with accents of rum, patchouli and orange.
Perfect for the wedding because: Spraying once is enough and the scent envelops you like a warm hug – you feel good immediately. In addition, the fragrance lasts for several hours, which makes it the perfect wedding essential. The only downer: the price is tough. But with Vanilla Diorama you treat yourself to a very special piece of luxury.
