The holidays are upon us which means lots of fabulous party-perfect makeup looks and late nights. Both, of course, do not make the ideal recipe for complexion perfection.
Late nights often result in puffy dark circles. Throw in the typical tell-tale signs of tiredness, dehydration, and sensitivity, and that can result in very unhappy skin.
Failure to remove those additional layers of makeup for those picture-perfect memories can lead to blocked pores, resulting in breakouts and redness. My number one tip for complexion perfection? Double cleanse!
Why double cleanse?
The first cleanse removes the dust, dirt, and pollutants of the day. The second gets deep down, removing any excess oil and debris in the pores to prevent blockages.
Complexion perfection party prep.
From today, implement the evening double cleanse into your daily skin routine every evening. Be sure to use a high quality cleanser for your skin type. Start gently polishing your skin 3-4 times per week with a gentle exfoliator to remove dead skin cells, stimulate cells and reveal new glowing skin.
Hydration, hydration, hydration!
The number one cause of puffy eyes and more defined wrinkles is dehydration. We should be drinking a minimum of 2 liters water per day, but this should increase during party season, especially if you’re enjoying a few festive drinks.
Hydrate your skin on the outside too by applying a rich moisturizer at night, and a skin nourishing face mask twice a week.
Pack smarter, not harder (or heavier!)
