You like to party. Perhaps you're busy ferrying everyone else around to party. Whatever you're situation there ain't no escaping dehydrated lacklustre skin when you're patying a little too hard or running yourself ragged. You might as well succumb to the champagne, glorious food, late nights, social follies, endless festivities and yes, more champagne. My 5 fabulous makeup tips for saving your skin and surviving the party season whilst keeping you looking perky.
Even when you feel like you’re dragging your butt to the finish line, the 5 makeup tips below will have you looking fresh this silly season.
MAKEUP TIP 1
Take your makeup off at night.
Simple but effective. Pump some cream cleanser onto a cotton pad and wipe the day, and your makeup, away. Don't reach for those single use wipes. Yes they're cheap but they are pretty nasty and harsh on your skin. Single use makeup wipes will further dehydrate and dry your skin. And seriously, it really takes no longer to pump a hydrating, nutrient rich cleanser onto a cotton pad and wipe the day away.

MAKEUP TIP 2
Plump up & hydrate your skin.
All that boozing, all those late nights equal fun and dehydrated you. For a quick pick me up, plump up and rehydrate your skin. Try skincare serums that have juicy ingredients with instant results like hyaluronic acid and peptides both at bedtime and in the morning before applying makeup.

MAKEUP TIP 3
Use a setting spray to prep, set and freshen up.
Move away from powder. On dehydrated skin it just serves to create a Cakey Mc Cake Cake finish to your makeup. A quick spritz of a makeup setting spray will not only prep, set & freshen up your makeup it will hydrate your skin. Click here to read my blog story on prepping and priming your skin.
