The holiday season is filled with parties, dinners, and photos you'll want to look your absolute best for. With all the hustle and bustle, it can be hard to keep up your regular skincare routine. Don't worry - with a few simple tips and products, you can get your skin holiday party-ready.
1. First up is exfoliation. Dead skin cells and dullness can really show up in photos and under bright party lighting. Use a gentle scrub or mask like our Exfoliate Mate once a week to slough away dry skin and reveal fresh, glowing skin underneath. The lactic acid and extracts in this mask work to brighten while natural extracts like pineapple and papaya draw out impurities.
2. Next, boost radiance with Vitamin C. Illuminating Eye Gels and Sheet Masks are packed with nourishing ingredients that help reduce dullness and uneven tone. Use weekly to brighten up lackluster skin. Vitamin C's antioxidant properties also help protect against holiday stressors like travel and sleepless nights.
3. Don't forget hydration! Dehydrated skin looks flat. Quench your skin with a hydrating serum followed by a rich moisturizer. Hyaluronic acid, antioxidants, and ceramides are ultra-moisturizing ingredients to look for. All The Feels moodmask trio has these nourishing ingredients, antioxidants, and niacinamide to hydrate your skin.
4. Facial massage is an easy at-home brightening technique. Use fingers to gently massage face in circular motions for 5-10 minutes. This stimulates blood flow and lymphatic drainage to eliminate puffiness. Do this a few times a week or whenever your face needs a pick-me-up. Be sure to apply facial oil prior to massaging your face.
5. Protect your glowing skin with SPF, even in winter. UV rays cause pigmentation, which can ruin a flawless holiday look. Choose a moisturizer with broad spectrum SPF 30 or higher and remember to reapply.
With these tips and products, you'll be ready to walk into every holiday gathering looking radiant, refreshed, and photo-ready. Let your natural glow shine through this season!

Here are some tips for improving your skin while traveling during the holidays:
Stay hydrated! Drink plenty of water before and during your flight to counteract the dry airplane air. Avoid alcohol and caffeine which can dehydrate skin.
Apply a rich moisturizer or hydrating face mask while flying to replenish moisture that gets zapped at high altitudes. Look for ingredients like hyaluronic acid, ceramides, and glycerin.
Mist your face with a hydrating facial spray throughout your journey to give skin a refreshing boost. Keep a travel-size spray in your bag for on-the-go refreshment.
Pack oil-absorbing blotting papers. Dab these on oily zones mid-flight to blot away shine. This prevents clogged pores and breakouts.
Wipe skin down before bedtime to remove makeup, oil, and impurities from traveling. This prevents congestion and next-day breakouts. Clean AF is a nourishing wipe made for travel. Vitamin B5 delivers maximum moisture, biotin gives off a lit-from-within glow, and folic acid that detoxifies and purifies pores.
Use gentle, non-irritating skincare products to avoid sensitivity and inflammation. Steer clear of abrasive scrubs or intense acids that may over-dry.
