Whether you’re a bride preparing for her wedding, or someone seeking great skin all around, you would do well to heed the beauty advice of the Lady Galadriel herself.

The SK-II ambassador shares her top tips, which we feel brides can stick to, too.

1. Get refreshed all day

You can do the same – for your day and evening events, as well as in-between wardrobe changes and breaks. Cate also said the essence helps if you feel you’ve got too much powder on.

2. Masks are important.
“During flights, especially long-haul flights, I’d pop a facial treatment mask over my face to give it an extra boost and hydration.”

Apply one a day or one every two days for about three months before your big day to get a great complexion.

Cate credits her fabulous porcelain complexion also to using an eye mask when she’s got an event, and finds SK-II’s whitening masks great before, as they “kick in radiance very quickly”.
