Healthy & Glowing Skin during Holiday Season
The Holiday Season is here and we all want our skin to be healthy and glowing for this special time of the year.
A few too many late nights and festive season indulgences can start to show on our skin complexions.
Our Skin Expert Vanessa, recommends all the tips and tricks you need to know for caring for your skin over the holiday season. As celebrations continue, here are some simple easy tips that will help nourish the skin and add to that festive glow.
Exfoliate
Although all of us understand the importance of keeping our skin clean, for some of us as well, the concept of facial exfoliation is a foreign one. While cleansing your skin on a daily basis may rid the skin of dirt and oil, it doesn’t necessarily act as a facial rejuvenator or help unclog pores the way exfoliation does.
The process of skin exfoliation creates a radiant, glowing complexion. Daily cleansing can help rid the skin of dirt and oil, but skin exfoliation is what makes the skin really healthy. The process of removing dead skin cells helps keep our skin hydrated. Face moisturiser on skin that isn’t exfoliated really just sits on the surface.
If you want the skin moisturiser to be absorbed, exfoliating the skin is the best way to do it.
Let’s not forget that exfoliation prepares the skin for make-up. By helping to even out skin texture, exfoliation helps make-up go on as smoothly as possible. And as we all know, the Holiday Season is the time when we put heavy makeup on more often.
The skin exfoliation provides an instant glow. If you’ve never exfoliated your skin before, you’ll be surprised at how quickly it improves the look of your skin. By unclogging pores, exfoliation provides an instant glow.

Swap sweets to superfoods
Our skin is one of our largest organs. The vital nutrients we obtain from a fresh and healthy diet nourish our bodies (including the skin from the inside out), while a varied skincare regime will help nourish our skin topically.
Superfoods are packed with antioxidants and will give your skin and body that rejuvenating top up, perfect for the holiday season.
Avoid sweets that will cause acne and dullness. So, fill your skincare game with eating a diet rich in essential nutrients like proteins, fibre, minerals, vitamins, and more.
Clean skin during Holiday Season
Our skin needs deep cleansing and toning during Holiday Season. Evening and morning face cleansing are essential for nutrients to absorb and nourish the skin. If you don’t cleanse your face before bedtime, not only do you leave on the makeup from the day, your pores will be clogged and you encouraging unwanted breakouts.
