Is your skin ready for the end-of-the-year festivities?
This cold winter season can be harsh on your skin by taking away all the moisture which will make your skin dry etc.
Then what should you do?
You need a special Christmas skin care routine that could give your skin a fresh healthy look this holiday season. For this, you need to pep your skin two weeks before Christmas.

Seven simple skincare tips

  1. Sugary treats are not sweet to your skin

Does sugar affect your skin or it’s not only a myth?

Everyone knows that excessive sugar intake is not good for one's health because of diabetes and weight gain. The question is does sugar affect our skin?

Sugary treats are not sweet to your skin

Excessive sugar in the bloodstream can cause glycation, which is a natural chemical reaction that happens in the body when sugar levels in the bloodstream just spike beyond that only insulin can handle. Now, this glycation affects the collagen and the part of the skin which is responsible for maintaining our skin elasticity. When these two essential skin building blocks become weaker the signs of aging will be visible and your skin will start becoming dry, saggy, and dull. The more the glycation will occur in your body the more you will look older.

How can you reduce the effects of sugar on the skin?

  •         Before you eat anything, read the food labels first and see how much sugar it contains. This way you can make healthier choices for yourself

  •         Replace fizzy drinks, energy drinks, and juices with water.

  •         You should know your body's sugar level so you can intake fruit and honey according to that because they also contain high amounts of sugar.

  1. Avoid drinking too much

Alcohol is one of the worst and most aggressive compounds that can destroy your skin. When you drink alcohol which is also known as a diuretic it makes your body release more urine which means your body will start losing more water and salt than usual which causes dehydration.

Avoid drinking too much
It can lead to several skin issues like sagging, enlarged pores, discoloration, dry lips, wrinkles, sunken eyes, dark circles, acne and excessive redness.
  1. Try to get enough sleep

Beauty sleep is a real thing!

When you sleep your whole body will be in a resting position. At that time your body will eliminate dead skin cells. Proper sleep will also lower the level of stress from the skin. You might have noticed when you wake up in the morning after a good sleep you look fresh and glowy.

Try to get enough sleep

Consistent sleep deprivation can cause wrinkles, aging, acne, blemishes, and discoloration. When you get less sleep it will disturb your skin pH level which further lowers your skin moisture level and depletes your natural glow. So, if you are following any skin care routine it is important that you also maintain a healthy diet and try to get enough sleep which is 8 hours.
  1. Avoid too much contact with snow

You might have heard for the first time that snow can damage your skin but let me explain this to you.
It’s a season of snow, lights, and celebration. With all these good things one thing that we forget is “Winter dryness” which leads to dryness, itchiness, irritation, and redness are some of the skin problems of the winter season.

Avoid too much contact with snow


People think that it’s only the sun that can damage our skin which is not true. UVB rays can burn and damage your skin even at high altitudes which mostly reflect from surfaces like snow and ice.
According to research, snow reflects up to 80% of the sun’s UV light so you can say the rays can hit you twice which increases the risk of cancer and premature ageing. That’s the reason we always recommend wearing sunscreen regardless of the weather.

  1. Hydrate and drink water

You always have heard one thing from your elders  drink water it helps you clear your skin, which is 100% right. That is why we keep on insisting to stop drinking alcohol and fizzy drinks and instead increase your water intake. It’s the best and simple way to keep your skin healthier, glowing, and fresh.

Hydrate and drink water
Water not only keeps your body hydrated and refreshed but also maintains your skin elasticity. People who drink large amounts of water have less chance to have scars, acne, wrinkles, and aging. It is recommended to drink at least 8 glasses of water a day.
  1. Take makeup off before sleep

It’s very very important to remove makeup before going to bed. You cannot even think how much damage makeup can cause to your skin during the night no matter how expensive it is. As I mentioned earlier, when you sleep your skin will renew itself, in that case when you leave your makeup on you are preventing your skin from this and you are stopping your skin from breathing.

Take makeup off before sleep

Most makeup products are made of oily substances that can clog your pores and lead to acne, whiteheads, and blackheads.  The recommended way to remove makeup is to use cleaning wipes that can clean all dirt and oil from the skin deeply. After cleaning the makeup wash your face with a good face wash or they can follow a skincare routine.
  1. Make your lips kissable

How to get kissable lips?
