Heavy foundation, intense makeup, all-night revelry... all these accentuate the deep joy of the holiday season. But the ones that suffer the most are women's skin: wrinkles, eye bags, dryness, fatigue. Celebrating the New Year seems to become a major disaster for the skin. To help your skin escape this calamity, why not learn some methods early on to combat holiday-induced skin fatigue?

NO.1 Basic Skincare

Stay Hydrated at All Times

During the holidays, women often neglect their skin hydration just as people tend to forget to drink water. In reality, as long as moisture and oil levels remain balanced, the skin can stay in good condition. The water content in the skin decreases every year, compounded by environmental changes and the widespread use of air conditioning, which makes the surroundings increasingly dry. Therefore, it is essential to pay attention to morning and evening moisturizing routines.

Stress Relief Tip: Regardless of skin type, the skin tends to be dehydrated during the winter. Those with oily skin should minimize the use of oil-control products and instead opt for more hydrating, water-based skincare products. Don't forget to keep your skin hydrated even while indoors.
