Beauty Solution 2026
Your bridal beauty dilemmas solved by Anjana Gosai


I would like my teeth to look clean and stain-free for my wedding, but I’d rather avoid whitening.
I recently had a clean with the Swiss-developed Guided Biofilm technology with the brilliant hygienist Anna Middleton. Think of it as a deep clean for your teeth rather than whitening. It involves the use of a fine jet of air, warm water and powder to gently whisk away stains, plaque and bacteria. It’s surprisingly comfortable because there is no scraping involved. In just 30-minutes you’ll be left with teeth that feel unbelievably smooth and bright. It’s perfect if you just want your smile to look fresh and natural without that over-bleached look, plus it’s suitable for those with crowns and veneers. From £190, www.londonhygienist.com

I have a summer wedding – how can I stop my make-up from melting in the heat?
What goes under make-up matters just as much as the make-up itself. Start with a primer to keep everything locked in. I like the Tatcha The Liquid Silk Canvas Primer (£26). Then apply a non-greasy moisturiser like Belief True Cream Moisturizing Bomb (£32) or No7 Good Intent Dew Bank Water Cream (£14.95). Both are lightweight and super hydrating. I used the No7 one in Italy during the summer and my make-up didn’t budge. Finish with a mist of L’Oréal Fixing Spray (£9.99) to set everything in place.

I want my lips to look good for my wedding day, but I’m nervous about looking overdone. Is there a subtle treatment that can improve the condition without fillers?
For naturally plump, hydrated lips that don’t look artificial, try Dr Paris Acharya’s Nano Droplet Lips treatment. Rather than adding volume like dermal fillers, it nourishes the lips and surrounding skin with nano-doses of bio-stimulator polynucleotides and hyaluronic acid. Over a few weeks, fine lines look smoother and lips feel softer. Dr Paris recommends two to three sessions, ideally completed ten to 12 weeks before the wedding, to achieve the best results.

I’m feeling completely drained with the wedding preparations. Is there anything that can help me feel more energised?
I find that Intravenous (IV) therapy really helps. IV drips deliver vitamins, minerals and nutrients directly into the bloodstream via a small tube so they absorb into the body faster than oral supplements. Popular infusions include vitamin C for immunity and B12 for energy – they can also be combined to suit your needs. I recommend booking into IV Boost (www.ivboost.uk), where you can also have a consultation with Dr Joshua Berkowitz to tailor your drip to your requirements. If required, they can also run diagnostic tests to assess your nutrient levels, so you get a truly personalised plan.

TRY IT: Every bride deserves a signature scent. Jo Malone London Uniquely You Scent Layering Set (£94) is made for layering, so iconic colognes, like Grapefruit, English Oak & Hazelnut and Peony & Blush Suede can be combined to create a personalised fragrance. Mix and match endless combinations to suit your mood or celebration.
