Party Skin: 3 Secrets To A Radiant Glow

Skincare may not be at the top of your mind when planning your NYE look, but as any make-up artist will tell you, taking good care of your skin is key to achieving a radiant, dewy finish for any invitation-only event. No matter how powerful your concealer or high-coverage foundation is, nothing rivals having a smooth, healthy canvas underneath it.

To get your complexion in tip-top shape ahead of the most important night of the year, we’re sharing our favourite secrets for maintaining optimal skin health during party season. Our top golden rule, however? Hydration – and we’re not talking about moisturising your skin with a heavy cream. Aim to drink at least two litres of water daily on top of treating your epidermis to plenty of hyaluronic acid. You’ll thank us later.

1. Elevate your moisturising regime

After cleansing the skin and ensuring you've removed any build-up of dead skin cells and impurities, reach for serums and targeted formulas rich in hyaluronic acid. Capable of holding over 1,000 times its weight in water within our skin cells, this powerhouse ingredient will help you retain moisture and achieve that plump, dewy look that radiates health. 

2. Perfect the base for your foundation

Your primer’s best friend this festive season? A great serum-moisturiser duo that keeps skin protected and repairs signs of fatigue, leaving the complexion with an illuminated finish ready to be further enhanced by make-up. The Platinum Stem Cell Elixir features cutting-edge plant stem cells to smooth and soften, while Our Digital Shield™ Day Cream is formulated with subtle optical diffusers to improve dullness caused by one too many late nights.

3. Upgrade your touch-up essentials

Lipstick? Check. Concealer? Check. Roll-on perfume? Check. The only thing missing in your clutch? Our Glow On The Go. To calm any pre-party anxiety and ensure you radiate confidence throughout the night, roll it over your pulse points. This will release soothing notes of frankincense, neroli, jasmine, lavender and clary sage, creating a moment of tranquillity amidst the excitement of the event. Lastly, swipe it across the high points of the face and your collarbones for a luminous touch.
