Hey Nova-Babes!
The holidays are right around the corner and while its a joyful season- the weather can often times bring out the worst in your skin.
Here are a few quick tips on how to keep your skin hydrated and fresh during the holiday season so you're solid with a skincare game plan:
1. DON'T SKIP YOUR SKINCARE ROUTINE!
This may seem like an obvious one but it’s so easy to skip out on doing your skincare diligence during the hustle and bustle of the holidays- or if you're traveling. Quick tip, pick up these travel containers for target and fill it up with your favorite facial nova goodies to be prepped for traveling
2. HYDRATE
Simple, drink your H2O- on average, teens should be drinking 64 ounces of water daily. Trust us on this, your skin will be GLOWING to the NOVA SKIN GODS with more hydration in your life. One of our favorite ways to keep track of your intake is getting a sassy little water jug to carry with you on the go. Drink up buttercup!
3. DON'T OVERINDLUGE ON SWEETS
I know, I know hear me out... enjoy gram's cookies and that gingerbread house but don't over do it. Shocking your body with an abundance of confectionaries can really cause your skin to react. If you are someone who already knows the effects of sugar consumption on your skin, just keep an eye out on how much sugar you indulge in this holiday season. Sugary foods can produce insulin and hormonal bursts in your system, which can trigger acne breakouts easily.
4. DON'T SWEAT THE SMALL THINGS
If possible, try to take a few moments each day for yourself during the holidays. Whether that’s going into a quiet room alone to do 10 minute meditations, saying ‘no, sorry mom, I can’t do that today’, or practicing your favorite self care ritual, giving yourself some grace and space in an already stressful time will do wonders for your mental health and your skin.
