Holiday Beauty Helpers: Part One

Posted By Kate

Whether you'll be attending office parties, family gatherings, or schmoozing during other seasonal soirees, the Holiday Season is your time to SPARKLE, SHINE, and look SENSATIONAL! The often frenetic pace of the season can, however, present restrictions, with little time to invest into full-on glamourous after work. 

T'Was The Night Before The Party, You Ought Wear A Mask! Your Skin Needs A Pick-Up, So Accomplish This Task!
That's right, beauties: sleep while wearing a facial mask! Give your skin a boost of hydration or radiance while you slumber, and wake to refreshed, hydrated, radiant, and glowing skin! Our top picks to help you acheive this: SkinCeuticals Hydrating B5 MasqueEmbryolisse Hydrating Cream MaskPeter Thomas Roth Camu Camu Power C x 30 Sleeping MaskARCONA Wine Hydrating MaskEminence Organic Blueberry Soy Repair Masque, Dr. Renaud Elastine-Collagene Nutri Firm Mask, and Jurlique Herbal Recovery Antioxidant Gel Mask!

Applying a mask upon arriving home after a Holiday party can also help you look more rested, recovered, and refreshed the next morning, too! Remember: consuming alcohol can dehydrate the skin, beauties! (Taking a B-complex vitamin before the party, then another one, downed with a couple of glasses of water before bed, can help thwart post-party pain after your merry-making, also!)

A skin-quenching night cream or balm is also guaranteed to restore hydration and a glow while you slumber: Kahina Giving Beauty Night CreamElemis Pro-Collagen Oxygenating Night CreamDecleor Aroma Night Rose D'Orient Soothing Night Balm, Peter Thomas Roth Un-Wrinkle Night Cream, and Premiology 24H Restructuring Anti-Fatigue Balm will soothe, restore, plump, and refine while catching some beauty sleep!

Your Eyes, How They Twinkle! Your Skin, So Merry! Your Cheeks: Like Roses! Your Lips: Like Cherries!
Puffy, tired eyes and chapped, dehydrated lips: neither are festive nor fashionable! Just like masking at night, treating these delicate areas while you sleep, the night before (as well as post-party) will brighten, refresh, and soothe!

Some of our favourite eye masks and overnight eye treatments: Indie Lee Calendula Eye Balmdr. brandt dark circles awayVivierSkin Dark Circle Diminishing Eye Cream, Darphin Eye Sorbet Mask, and Eminence Organic Raspberry Eye Masque.

Dry, cracked, dehydrated lips: treat, nourish, and help prevent them by religiously slathering-on a lip treatment (or plumper) before visions of sugar plums begin dancing in your head! A good way to ensure that your lip product may do its job overnight: prepare and exfoliate your lips when brushing your teeth before bed. Apply a bit of petroleum jelly or lip salve while brushing your teeth, and then gently use your soft toothbrush or a wet, warm washcloth to remove dead, flaky skin. bliss Fabulips Sugar Lip Scrub works well, and Jane Iredale Sugar & Butter Lip Exfoliator/Plumper does double duty to exfoliate and treat lips!

To treat and plump lips overnight: Sara Happ The Lip SlipLipFusion XL- 2X Micro-Injected Collagen Advanced Lip Plumping TherapyTata Harper Be Fierce Lip Treatment, or La Roche Posay Ceralip Lip Repair Cream!
