Skin recovery tips for the New Year

If the festive season took a toll on your usual skin glow, you’re certainly not alone! The late nights, indulgent eating, parties, extra sun exposure and not to mention stress all add up and can result in your skin appearing dull, congested and uneven. Now is the time to implement a few easy steps to get your skincare routine back on track and regain your glow! 

Rest and recover.

It is called beauty sleep for a reason! Your skin pays the price when you get less than the required 8 hours. You may be experiencing breakouts, dark circles and a general dull appearance. Get back into a solid sleep schedule by going to bed and waking up at the same time every day. 

It is also important to implement some steps to reduce your cortisol levels that will most likely be at an all time high. We recommend kick starting the new year with some mindfulness, slow walks in nature and gentle exercise to get those feel good hormones pumping. The more consistent you are with good quality sleep and relaxation techniques, the more well-rested and bright your skin will look

Let your skin breathe.

Extra makeup from all of the social events can leave your skin congested. Now’s the time to let your skin breathe and avoid using heavy makeup if possible. If you are needing to wear makeup, reach for a mineral option to avoid further skin congestion. You may also benefit from a deep cleansing skin treatment in clinic to rejuvenate your skin. 

Repair from within.

After all of the indulging through the festive season, our gut health can take a hit. It’s important to get your digestive health repaired in order to feel well and of course, experience clear, glowing skin. If you have never invested in some inner health supplements then now is the time, we have a wide range of probiotics and ingestible powders to repair your gut and as a result get your skin glowing.

Boost your homecare with antioxidants.

If you have noticed the extra sun exposure over Summer has left your skin uneven and with more pigmentation visible then we recommend implementing antioxidants into your skin care routine to fight against the free radical damage that has occurred. What are antioxidants? They are vitamins and minerals that protect the skin’s surface from oxidative damage caused by free radicals and environmental stress such as UV rays and pollution. Oxidative stress presents in many different ways on our skin but you may be noticing changes like- loss of skin plumpness, fine lines, dehydration, uneven skin tone and pigmentation.

Antioxidant ingredients such as Vitamin B, D,  E and niacinamide are super hero skin care ingredients to instantly repair your skin. 

We have a range of products in the clinic that are jam packed with these amazing ingredients, ask our team via the contact us link below for more information. 

Set new skin care habits.

If you have become a little slack on your skin care routine over the holidays now is the time to pull out the products from your bathroom cupboard and get back into healthy skin habits. It would also be a great time to book in for a professional skin treatment. With all of our skin treatments our therapists perform a thorough skin consultation to ensure you are getting the best results for your skin both in clinic and at home.
