5 tips for healthy skin this holiday season

The holidays are upon us, and that usually means it’s the most wonderful time of the year—but it’s also the busiest.

While you’re thinking about how to make the holidays brighter for your friends and family, remember to think of yourself, too. When dark spots, stress lines, or other skin care concerns start to crop up over the next month or so, remember these simple products and solutions from your friends at Southgate.

1. Keep your skin hydrated.

As Western New Yorkers, we know that harsh winter weather can dry out our skin in no time. For a go-to moisturizer, we recommend Avène Revitalizing Nourishing Cream. This rich, nourishing, daily cream will help your skin stay moisturized all day long. When you buy a jar for yourself, don’t forget to grab one for your mom, sister, daughter, or best friend!

2. Maintain longer, healthier lashes.

You’re going to be heading to a lot of holiday get-togethers, right? You want to make sure your eyelashes are on point. Not just for this holiday season, but well into 2022 as well. We recommend the Babe Lash Essential Serum, which promotes the appearance of longer, more beautiful eyelashes. This award-winning product is Babe Lash’s number-one bestseller! Get started with the two milliliter size today.

3. Keep your skin safe in the sun.

Remember our blog from last September? We talked about how sun protection is so important all year-round. Despite colder temperatures, your skin is still susceptible to sunburn and hyperpigmentation. That’s why the Glytone Brightening System is such an important product to use this winter. To protect your skin from developing (or worsening) signs of hyperpigmentation, the Glytone Brightening System includes:

Mild Gel Cleanser
Enhance Brightening Complex
Sunscreen Lotion Broad Spectrum (SPF 40)
Glytone’s Night Renewal Cream.

Give yourself and others the gift of healthy skin this season with the Glytone Brightening System!
