5 Tips To Help Your Skin Survive The Festive Season

1. Cleanse Cleanse Cleanse 

Unfortunately, chances are pretty high that you passed out without cleansing your party makeup off the night before. Even if you were skin-responsible enough to half-heartedly use a makeup wipe, you probably didn’t properly nourish your skin. So, as soon as you wake up, lather up and cleanse! 

Our top pick? Dragon’s Blood 3-In-1 Advanced Treatment Cleanser $19.95. This 3-in-1 solution thoroughly cleanses without stripping the skin of its natural oils, gently exfoliates with a natural blend of AHA fruit extracts, and lightly moisturises to leave the skin feeling soft, smooth and hydrated after every wash. So your skin is instantly fresher, cleaner and brighter (and you can avoid those pesky break-outs)! 

2. Tone Your Face

Give your face a daily refresh with a hydrating toner and keep your skin fresh and vibrant all day and night long. Try our Oxygen-C Hydrating Vitamin C Toner for soft and supple skin as well as long-lasting moisturisation. This quick spritz will do wonders for your tired and dull skin all season long.  

3. Stay Hydrated

That means your body and your skin! Make sure you are consuming your recommended water intake daily to reduce the risks of dehydrated skin. 

Drinking alcohol causes your complexion to become severely dehydrated, so reach for deeply hydrating products that help to restore the moisture loss in the skin. 

Our top picks? Advance SUPERLIFT 3D Deep Hydration Lifting Masks $29.95. Infused with replenishing natural and active ingredients including Hyaluronic Acid, these unique masks use 3D contour technology to mould to the shape of the face & neck and restore lost moisture while lifting, firming and recovering elasticity in the skin.

Follow it up with Nature’s SUPEROIL $39.95, a unique blend of ancient oils containing the richest natural sources of omega 3-6-9 and super antioxidants. This non-greasy and fast-absorbing oil is a match made in heaven for dehydrated skin and works quickly to protect against dryness, nourish and calm the skin.

4. Cut Back On Sugar

A large amount of alcohol is full of sugar and preservatives that impact the youthfulness of your skin and its complexion. This time of year also brings added snacks and desserts which are also a big no-no when it comes to glowing, beautiful skin. However saying this, we want you to make the most of the holiday season so just remember everything in moderation. 

5. Have Fun! 

Take time during the holidays to let your hair down and have fun with your friends and family. It is important to have fun and relax during this time as it relieves the stress on your skin. You can tell when you are tired through your skin showing undereye bags, puffiness and dry skin is a sign of dehydration. Stress can be seen in your skin too, this can be breakouts or simply looking dull. By having fun and reducing your stress you will help your skin to look fresh and glowing throughout the holiday period.
