Skincare SOS to help you recover from the holiday hustle

Late nights, indulgent meals, and holiday family stress can all take a toll on more than just your energy levels – they can wreak havoc on your skin too. Dehydration, dullness, and uneven texture often emerge after a season of overindulgence, leaving you in need of a skincare reboot. These tips from Clere skincare’s brand manager, Su-Marie Annandale will help you restore your skin’s health and glow, so you can step into the new year looking refreshed and radiant.

1. Hydrate – The effects of late nights and festive food can leave your skin dehydrated and lacklustre. Replenish lost moisture by drinking plenty of water and incorporating water-rich foods like cucumber and watermelon into your diet. Complement this with a hydrating lotion or crème that locks in moisture and restores your skin’s natural glow.
2. Nourish your skin – When your skin is crying out for moisture and care, a multi-tasking product is your best friend. Clere’s 2-in-1 Nourishing Crème + Tissue Oil Pack is the ideal recovery solution:

• 3.5X more Tissue Oil* for stretch marks.
• Provides 48-hour intense moisture, making dry, stressed skin soft, smooth, and radiant.
• Deeply nourishes for an improvement in skin tone and elasticity.

“After the holidays, your skin needs extra love and care to bounce back. Clere’s 2-in-1 Nourishing Crème + Tissue Oil is designed to give your skin the nourishment it needs, leaving it refreshed, hydrated, and glowing,” says Annandale.

3. Get your beauty sleep – The holidays may have disrupted your sleep schedule, but it’s time to prioritise rest. Sleep is when your skin repairs itself, so aim for 7–9 hours of quality rest per night. To amplify the benefits, use a nourishing crème before bed to wake up with revitalised skin.
4. De-stress your skin (and yourself) – Holiday stress can lead to breakouts and dullness. Combat this with a soothing skincare routine and mindfulness techniques like yoga or deep breathing. Pamper yourself with a weekly at-home facial using gentle exfoliation and a hydrating mask to calm inflammation and brighten your complexion.
5. Feed your skin from within – What you eat plays a major role in skin health. After weeks of indulgent food, focus on a diet rich in antioxidants, vitamins, and healthy fats. Think spinach, berries, avocados, and nuts. These foods help repair skin damage and restore radiance.
6. Stick to a routine – Your skin thrives on consistency, so return to a simple, effective skincare regimen. Cleanse, moisturise, and protect. Add targeted products, like Clere’s 2-in-1 Nourishing Crème + Tissue Oil, for areas needing extra care.

By following these tips, you can reset your skin and reclaim its natural glow, no matter how indulgent your holidays have been. With a little care and the right products, radiant skin is just a routine away.
