At Christmas we all induge in too many rich foods, too much alochol and we do not take enough exercise. This all takes its toll on your skin, leaving it de-hydrated, dry and dull. So here are 12 useful tips to get your skin through the festive season:
• Get a good night’s sleep. Turn off all the gadgets and have a few early nights which = a fresh face in the morning!
• Pace yourself at parties. Drink water in between alcoholic drinks for brighter skin and a clearer head.
• Go on a good long walk on Boxing Day and draw in some deep breaths of fresh air for a quick mood fix and a healthy glow.
• Eat foods rich in antioxidents (berries, spinach) help nourish skin from the inside out.
• Start your day with a cup of hot water and lemon to boost your body and flush out toxins.
• Drink at least 1.5 litres a day to re-hydrate your skin.
• Try and limit caffeine & alcohol for clear skin and a clear head!
• Make sure you’re getting plenty of EFA’s (essential fatty acids) to plump your skin from the inside out.
• Don’t leave your make up on at night however late you go to bed.
• Ensure you still cleanse your skin daily and if you have time treat it to a nourishing mask to wake up fresh-faced.
• Try and relax – try meditation or a walk in the woods for a mood boost that shows in your skin.
• Don’t forget yourself this Christmas! Help those special people in your lives choose a lovely gift by giving them your wish list. All you have to do is fill in the wish list, make your choice by ticking the boxes and let Santa – Oops! – your partner, friend or relative know what you would like for Christmas!
