New Year, New Me!

Writer and expert7 years ago

Staying on top of your skincare and makeup regime will help you look and feel at your best. The new year is a perfect time to consider caring for your skin, or revamping up your look. Fashions change, as does your complexion. Freshening up your look and your skin will give you a bit of a boost in the dreary month of January.

Clear your complexion Whether you feel like detoxing in those first weeks of the new year, or replenishing your skin after partying hard, the right products can make all the difference. A fresh, clear complexion comes down to picking skincare treats that suit you and your lifestyle. If you're suffering from blemishes, check out Yves Rocher's clever Zero Blemish Gel Cream. Their Anti Redness Moisturising Cream is another great buy for stressed out skin. Or the clever Balance Me Congested Skin Serum can be used as an on-the-spot treatment, or as an all-over cream to soothe inflammation.

Boost moisture The winter months can play havoc with your skin, especially if you're prone to dryness. Decking out your skincare selection with some hydrating treatments is a smart way to keep your complexion glowing. DECLÃ‡?OR Aromessence Marjolaine Night Balm is perfectly designed for dry and very dry skin. Or, you can find lush products like Elemis's luxurious Exotic Cream Moisturising Mask, and their Hydra-Boost Sensitive Day Cream.

Update your look Once you've got your new year skincare regime in hand, you can start playing around with your look. There's never a better excuse to update your makeup collection, and 2018 has some exciting trends to watch out for. Luckily, you won't have to completely ditch the glittery party makeup from December. Eye brightening products like Max Factor's Excess Shimmer Eyeshadow will complete both a day and night time look. The Bobbi Brown Creamy Corrector will help even out any post-festive blemishes, and NYC's Quick Dry Nail Polish will add to a flawless look.
