The holiday season is a magical time full of unforgettable moments: family gatherings, special dinners, celebrations with friends, and much more. However, this hustle and bustle also has a significant impact on our skin and overall well-being. Changes in schedules, lack of sleep, excessive consumption of food and drinks, and exposure to the cold are just some of the factors that can throw our skin off balance.
Although it may feel like there's no time for a skincare routine amidst the festive chaos, now is when it needs our attention the most. The good news is that, with a few adjustments and the right products, your skin can look radiant and healthy during the holidays and beyond.
How Do the Holidays Affect Our Skin?
- Lack of sleep: Late nights and staying up disrupt cellular regeneration. The skin can appear dull, with pronounced dark circles and visible signs of fatigue.
- Stress: Preparations and commitments can generate stress, which alters cortisol levels in the body, promoting the appearance of imperfections like pimples or redness.
- Excessive makeup: Frequent use of makeup during this time can clog pores and hinder the skin's oxygenation.
- Unbalanced diet: Excesses of sugar, fat, and alcohol tend to dehydrate the skin, making it more vulnerable to the appearance of fine lines and loss of elasticity.
- Cold weather: Winter dehydrates the skin due to wind and low temperatures, while indoor heating can dry it out even further.
6 Tips to Take Care of Your Skin During the Holidays
- Stay hydrated inside and out.
- Establish a nighttime cleansing routine.
- Opt for warm showers.
- Sleep 7-8 hours a day.
- Care for your feet after nights of dancing.
- Balance your digestion with holiday meals.
