Your top 5 holiday skin & body tips |
|
The party has started! Are you ready for the champagne toasts, the cheesy dips, the decadent candies, and a few dances to "celebration" by Kool and The Gang? While we're all for celebrating the holidays, we're all really just looking out for two things: Our waistline and my skin. As we navigate our way through the parties, the goodies and the late nights, here's your survival guide to emerge in the New Year with skin that's radiant and healthy (and without a single extra pound to work off).
- ADD HYDRATION: Saying "cheers" with a couple flutes of champagne this season? Alcohol can rob skin of moisture, so make sure you re-hydrate. All it takes is ten minutes of a supercharged mask to rapidly remedy dehydration. Try applying it before you get into the shower-by the time you're ready to get out, ten minutes have passed and you can rinse it right off.
- KEEP THE CHAP IN-CHECK: Promise me you won't ring in the New Year with a midnight kiss that's chapped and peeling. Keep your lips smooth and soft with a lip exfoliant. In fact, why not just keep a tube with you all day, too? Then follow up with a swipe of emollient lip balm and your lip stick will go on much smoother.
- PURGE!: After weeks of excess-abandoning your regular diet, staying up late, and falling asleep a few times without washing your face-you're going to need this. Our intensive treatment plan that "purges" skin of it's impurities, sweeping away dulling cells, and uncovering fresh, revitalized skin.
- HIT REFRESH: No time to head home, wash your face and reapply your makeup before you're off to your holiday event? Boost moisture and revitalize your complexion to awaken your entire face. Unlike a heavy concealer, it's a lightweight tinted treatment that glides over skin to neutralize dark circles and blur fine lines.
- PROCEED WITH CAUTION: If you're wearing a bit more makeup than usual as you celebrate, try a creme-based makeup remover that's not too harsh on skin.
**Oh, and for that waistline, here's one great hint: Don't eat anything that is a holiday treat. Stick to veggies and actually lose weight this season!
