Do you have dreams of shining as bright as the star on top of the tree but instead you're feeling dull, dry and dehydrated? Follow these simple skin tips to boost your glow and take your healthy skin into the New Year.
Step 1: Cleanse without stripping
-Opt for a creamy cleanser or cleansing balm to avoid stripping the good oils from your skin.
-Always use cool water when washing your face and avoid sticking your face directly under a hot shower stream.

*PRO TIP - Our LUXE Nourishing Oil can be used as an oil-cleanse or pre-cleanse to nourish and protect skin while gently breaking down oil-based makeups and sunscreens
Step 2: Exfoliate Gently
-Exfoliate no more than 1-3x/week with a gentle enzyme-based exfoliant to gently break down dead skin cells, uncovering healthy, glowing skin beneath.
Our top picks for enzyme exfoliants:

Step 3: Hydrate Deeply
-Follow up your cleanser or exfoliant immediately with hydrating ingredients like hyaluronic acid or sodium PCA to plump and rejuvenate skin
