It's Party Season! Get Glowing From Head To Toe

How To Glow Up For The Christmas Holidays

The festive season is around the corner and approaching fast. With that, our calendars start to get busy with events and social activities that can ultimately take a toll on our regular routines. As a result, we tend to neglect our daily practices of self-care. There’s no doubt that the holiday season is an exciting time for all of us as we get to spend time with our loved ones and indulge in delicious food, and there’s no better way to party the holidays away than feeling amazing in your own skin. 

Follow our guide to see how you can get glowing from head to toe and feel confident all season long this summer. 

Glow From The Inside Out

It is becoming well-recognised that beauty is more than skin deep. Your inner well-being is the secret to achieving that glow you have always longed for, which is why it is crucial to include self-care products and practices in your journey to feeling amazing for the party season. Supporting the balance of your physical, emotional and mental wellbeing is made easy with the right hacks to help you feel like your healthiest and most radiant self.

Hydrate Your Skin & Body

First of all, the non-negotiable for glowing skin is drinking water, and I mean lots of it! If your body is well hydrated, your skin will follow which means you’ll notice a more supple and glowing complexion. If drinking water is something you forget to do, or you find it boring, there are many ways that you can spice up your hydration routine to make easy, cost effective and more exciting. Drinking herbal teas such as chamomile or green tea is a great way to increase your water intake while also benefiting from the protective antioxidant properties that these herbs provide. You can also create flavoured water at home by infusing your emotional support water bottle with slices of cucumber, lemon, mint or berries for a refreshing burst of flavour. This simple hack will save you money spent on bottles of flavoured water whilst making drinking water more enjoyable. 

Beauty Begins From Within

To support your skin’s natural glow, incorporate clean beauty supplements to your self-care routine to replenish essential minerals and nourish your inner well-being. Your health begins in the gut, and for healthy and glowing skin, you need to have the right balance of bacteria and nutrients. By adding a supplemental formula to your morning routine, such as The Beauty Chef Glow Inner Beauty Essential Supercharged Formula, you're prioritising radiant skin and improved gut health for the ultimate transformation. Including Biotin, Vitamin C, Zinc, essential vitamins, prebiotics and probiotics, this glow powder will truly make you glow for the festive season. Another supplement to try in your morning routine is collagen powder. With its anti-ageing effects, this powerful protein helps to strengthen hair and nails, while also improving skin elasticity and reducing inflammation. The Vida Glow Original Marine Collagen 30g x 3g Sachets offer a pre-served product to make taking this supplement as convenient as possible. Simply add a sachet to your bag for an on-the-go health kick that you can add to your water and mindlessly achieve more youthful looking skin. Lastly, to replenish your body with the vitamins and minerals that may not be received through food intake, the WelleCo Super Elixir Original powder is a daily nourishing formula to help your body feel clear and vibrant. A clean superfood supplement containing nutritious wholefoods, herbal extracts, vitamins, minerals, prebiotics and probiotics to not only support gut health, but enhance energy to make you look and feel glowing from the inside out. A versatile supplement that can be mixed with water, added to your breakfast smoothies, or bliss ball snacks for a delicious and nutritious boost. 

How To Get Glowing Skin

Revive your dull or devitalised skin by incorporating skincare products into your daily routine that enhance your skin’s natural radiance. The first step into achieving glowing skin for the party season, is to ensure you have a smooth base canvas to work with. As the summer season approaches, you will spend more days at the beach, wear more makeup than usual, and indulge in all things festive. Unfortunately, this can make your skin unhappy and cause a lot of debris build-up. By incorporating regular exfoliation into your skincare routine, you can enjoy all that the festive season has to offer, while maintaining your skin’s glow. The Alpha-H Liquid Gold With 5% Glycolic Acid is a best-selling exfoliating treatment that not only gently exfoliates to reveal a more even skin-tone, but also promotes the skin's own production of collagen for more naturally plump skin. Exfoliation should not stop at your face, your body is just as important if you want that all-over glow. For an indulgent experience, the award-winning Pure Fiji Coconut Sugar Scrub - Coconut gently buffs away dead skins cells to unveil luminous skin. With the hydrating skin care agent, coconut oil, this body exfoliant leaves your skin feeling softer and smoother, which is key to achieving glowing skin.

Home Facial Care

Combine skincare with self-care by incorporating sheet mask skin care to take your beauty routine to the next level. A practice to not only deeply nourish and hydrate your skin, but also acts as a form of relaxation. The Omnilux Hydrogel Facial Mask is packed with Hyaluronic Acid and other beneficial ingredients such as Niacinamide & Vitamin B to treat signs of ageing, cool, hydrate and soothe the skin to reduce inflammation. So next time you have a night to yourself, kick up your feet, play your favourite movie and enjoy a sheet mask for the ultimate self-care and skincare combination. 

Give Your Skin An Instant Glow

For a daily skin enhancement, bronzers will become your best friend to boost your summer complexion. To achieve a natural radiant-looking glow, incorporate bronzing drops with skin-loving ingredients this festive season. The MCoBeauty Super Glow Bronzing Drops is a multi-tasking formula infused with skincare ingredients such as Jojoba Seed Oil, Cacao Extract, White Tea and Hyaluronic Acid. A warm bronze tint is the secret to luminous skin, which is why choosing bronzers for face and body that hydrate and protect your skin barrier are must-haves to get glowing from head to toe. 

Boost Your Confidence

Furthermore, the most important rule to get glowing this party season is to shine with confidence. Although confidence comes from within, there is no denying that we all love a little confidence boost from time to time. And how do you do that? You might ask. Transform your beauty routine with these simple practices that are guaranteed to have you revealing your inner-glow. 

Sun Safe Tanning

First of all, there is nothing that gives you a confidence boost more than a bronzed tan. And because we are looking after our skin this festive season, not the type that comes from the sun and causes skin damage. If you’re wondering how to get a summer tan without the skin damage, the answer is fake tan! You can easily achieve a summer tan with fake tan products that contain skincare ingredients to nourish your skin and protect its barrier. Eco Tan and Three Warriors are best-selling and all natural fake tan brands that provide a long-lasting glow. For deep bronze results the Eco Tan Cacao Tanning Mousse Express Self Tan is a quick-drying formula with Aloe Vera, antioxidant Cacao and Vitamins A and C to hydrate and nourish the skin and achieve that healthy bronzed glow for summer. Alternatively, to maintain your tan or build a light glow, the Three Warriors Gradual Tan is a blend of skin-loving, nutrient-rich ingredients that provide an even skin tone and flawless finish. A fake tan product that provides intense hydration, this is the perfect way to achieve that confidence boost this party season. 

Seriously Good Hair Repair

We all know that having healthy and luscious hair boosts our self-esteem, and during the festive season, as we swim in salt water, use styling products and heat hair styling tools, the need to care for our hair health increases. To repair and nourish the hair as we party through the festive season, hair treatment masks from K18 will become your best friend.

Finally, another way to boost your confidence is to invest in good quality hair tools that keep your hair health in mind. Hair styling tools by Stellar, have revolutionised the way you can now style and care for your hair. The Stellar Omnia Styler Plus is no ordinary hair tool.
