A bride’s big day is full of beautifying—from hair to makeup, fingers to toes. But in addition to getting all dolled up on the actual day, there’s plenty of time in advance for some beauty best bets. Here’s a look at five treatments sure to keep you pretty as you prepare to walk down the aisle:

• A Fab Facial: Put your best--and freshest--face forward with a Dermasound Plus Ultrasonic Facial. Offered exclusively at Simply Skin in Little Italy, the innovative procedure uses distilled water and microcurrent therapy to flush skin of dead cells, refresh it with anti-aging and anti-inflammatory vitamins and give it that youthful glow. www.simplyskinsd.com.


• A Wax-Free Wonder: Baring it all has never been sweeter, thanks to sugaring, a hair-removal technique that uses sugar paste to adhere to unwanted hair. Brides, grooms and their wedding parties are always welcome at The Undercarriage, “a fine waxing establishment” in Bankers Hill, where “Classy Wednesdays” sweeten the deal even further, offering discounted services, wine, champagne, snacks and treats. www.theundercarriage.com.


• Lashing Out: Brides looking for the eye-opening appearance of long eyelashes need look no further than the “lash artists” at Tranquility Lashes in Golden Hill. Their Xtreme Lashes customizable eyelash extensions range from “Tease” and “Flirt” to “Transformation” and “Couture” to allow for a personalized extension experience. www.tranquilitylashes.com.


• Highbrow Beauty: Bushy brows, begone! Brow Lounge, a boutique salon in La Jolla, offers shaping and waxing, as well as skin care and makeup sessions--and special bridal pricing. “Preferred Browsers” receive discounted brow shaping and retail purchases. www.browlounge.net.


• A Gorgeous Groom: Lest we forget the pre-marriage man-scaping, SK Sanctuary recognizes that the bride is not the only holder of beauty. The La Jolla spa’s “Groom the Groom” package includes a bath and massage of the groom’s choice, plus a men’s manicure, pedicure and haircut. www.sk-sanctuary.com.
