Day 16 Christmas Countdown - Post Party Essentials

Party season is officially upon us and by now in full swing so after going to countless Christmas parties, out for meals with friends and family and drinks with the girls our skin is crying out for much needed attention, enter the post party essentials blog post.

When it comes to creating that faux glow you need a radiance boosting and hydrating moisturiser. In my opinion, no moisturiser does radiance and hydration quite like the Origins GinZing Moisturiser. With it's non oily/greasy formula and housing ingredients such as coffee bean the skin is instantly boosted and makeup stays put. This will also help to freshen and de puff your skin after those heavy nights and full faces of makeup in the evening.

Be sure to use a good eye cream which will keep the puffiness at bay and give a more alert and awake appearance. My go to eye cream is the Clinique Moisture Surge Extra Refreshing Eye Gel. It helps to smooth out lines and puffiness and leaves a a luminous and supple finish to the delicate area around your eyes. 

Keep hydrated, alcohol is seriously dehydrating so keeping your body topped up with water is an essential. Not only will your body thank you but so will your skin. 

Exfoliate, after applying numerous coats of fake tan for those Christmas parties it is important to exfoliate and get rid of those layers before they start building up. I swear by the Soap & Glory Pulp Friction body scrub, it lathers up into a lovely rich and luxurious foam and feels super moisturising on the skin.

That is pretty much my post party essentials. What are yours?
