All I want for Christmas is Clear Skin

Clear skin is the ultimate skincare goals. Especially during the festive period with our various get togethers and parties. We all want to look and feel our best. So, if you want hydrated and glowing skin this Christmas follow our top tips…

Cleanse

As the seasons change, so should our skincare. While light textured products are best during warmer weather, in the run-up to Christmas you should switch to oil based and cream formulas – these will help keep skin hydrated. To remove makeup, swap your gel cleanser for an oil-based one, and follow with a cream texture for your second cleanse. Skin Doctors pH Balancing Cleanser is a great option, as it contains avocado extract to keep skin nourished and moisturised.

Exfoliate

Without exfoliation, there can be a build-up of dead skin cells, resulting in excess oil and clogged pores, leading to blemishes and acne. Skin Doctors Exfoliating Crystals targets these built up cells and gently buffs them away leading to cleaner and refreshed skin. Before you exfoliate ensure you cleanse your skin, so you are working with a clean base. If you have sensitive skin or if you’re just looking for a gentler exfoliation, add more water. Finally, make sure you don’t rub your skin, rather, allow the product to glide over. The optimal number of times to exfoliate will differ person to person based on skin type and lifestyle factors but 1-2 times a week should help keep skin healthy.

Cream

Once you’ve exfoliated, you’ll need to protect your refreshed skin with a hydrating cream. Enter Skin Doctors Beelift. This clever cream contains Bee Venom, natural Manuka Honey, Royal Jelly, the collagen treatment Trylagen® and Hyadisine®. Together these ingredients trick the skin into thinking it has been lightly stung, instantly working to control facial muscles for cumulative tightening, lifting, plumping, and firming of the skin.

Prime

Before you apply makeup prime your skin to help it go on smoothly and stay in place. Skin Doctors Instant Facelift is a 2-1 serum, acting as a fabulous makeup primer which also lifts and firms the skin in minutes! As well as the anti-ageing benefits, unlike most primers, it has a smooth, matt finish with a tacky edge that grabs and holds onto foundation. Because of its finish, its compatible with sheer, glowing or hydrating finishes.
