The Wedding Collective’s The Glow Bar is your ultimate bridal beauty survival kit

The global beauty and wellness market is in overdrive, and India is keeping pace. Salon menus have evolved beyond basic blow-dries to include advanced hair-bonding treatments, keratin-infused glossing services, and scalp health diagnostics. Make-up now doubles as skincare, with serums in your foundation and SPF in your setting sprays. Skincare devices—once reserved for dermatology clinics—are now finding space on bathroom counters, from LED masks to ultrasonic cleansers. Even wellness rituals have gone high-tech, with red light therapy, personalised IV drips, and performance-focused supplements becoming part of bridal prep.

It’s a wealth of choice—but that’s the problem. There’s too much to choose from, and not all of it is worth your time or budget. Trends can be fleeting, but the right products and treatments deliver results that last well beyond the honeymoon.

At The Wedding Collective Season Two, The Glow Bar exists to simplify that search. We’ve hand-picked brands that combine clinical credibility with proven results—whether backed by decades of expertise or disrupting the industry with fresh innovation. This is not a line-up of passing fads; it’s a selection of high-performance essentials tested to meet the demands of modern wedding celebrations. From achieving peak glow for your sangeet to recovering fast after the reception, these are the names you’ll want in your corner.

Dhun Wellness

Dhun is a new kind of wellness destination—rooted in the city, not removed from it. Founded by Mira Kapoor, it blends the wisdom of Ayurveda and Eastern medicine with modern therapeutic practices to create personalised wellness pathways. The focus is on balance rather than extremes, with treatments and programmes tailored to individual needs instead of one-size-fits-all regimens. At its Bandra flagship, you’ll find everything from targeted body therapies and nutritional guidance to mindfulness sessions, each designed to restore rhythm amid urban chaos. For the wedding season, Dhun’s holistic programmes help brides, grooms, and families stay energised, manage stress, and support skin health from the inside out. It’s wellness that fits into real life: calm, credible, and deeply effective.

Indē Wild

Launched by Diipa Büller-Khosla in 2021, Indē Wild bridges ancient Indian beauty wisdom with modern, dermatologist-backed science. Inspired by her mother, an Ayurvedic doctor, Büller-Khosla reimagines rituals like scalp champi and actives such as turmeric and ashwagandha into clinically tested formulations. The line speaks directly to South Asians looking for skincare that reflects both their identity and performance expectations. Cult favourites include the deeply nourishing lip balm, 1% Bakuchiol Night Repair Serum, and AM Sunscreen Glow Drops—each merging traditional actives with proven efficacy. For wedding prep, the lip balm earns its place as a handbag essential, delivering long-lasting hydration and comfort to keep lips smooth through back-to-back events.

Standouts include ultra-comfortable and pigmented lip oils, which deliver sheer colour with deep hydration, and high-impact kajals that glide on without tugging and stay put for hours. For wedding season, Simply Nam’s edited range works just as well for camera-ready bridal looks as it does for subtle, off-duty days. This is beauty built for Indian skin, designed by one of the industry’s most trusted names.

Yves Saint Laurent Beauty

YSL Beauty brings peak glamour to the wedding vanity, backed by innovative formulations and unmistakable branding. The line spans Rouge Pur Couture lipsticks, Touche Éclat complexion enhancers, and Libre fragrances—products that have earned their place in professional kits and personal bags alike. For the wedding season, they offer dependable colour, refined textures, and a modern take on classic luxury. Its make-up and fragrance are designed to keep pace with long celebrations without losing their edge.

Reviv

Reviv operates at the intersection of advanced medical science and luxury wellness. With a global presence in over 47 countries, it offers personalised IV therapies and micronutrient infusions designed to optimise health and recovery. In India, co-founders Krysh Bajaj and Anjali Tripathi have brought treatments like the Vitaglow Glutathione Drip for skin radiance, Hydromax for deep hydration, and NAD+ for cellular repair to the wedding circuit. At The Wedding Collective, Reviv offers pre-event energy boosts, bridal glow protocols, and post-celebration recovery drips, making wellness part of the hospitality experience. It’s a discreet yet impactful way to ensure you and your guests look and feel your best throughout the festivities.
