Preventing breakouts this silly season

As we move into the busier and more social part of the year (aka silly season). It’s important to of course enjoy ourselves first and foremost.

Keeping your skin balanced and breakout free during this time may seem like the impossible but we have some tips to help you keep your skin healthy and glowing this Christmas.

 

Hydrate

When we say hydrate, we don’t just mean water. Drinking enough water is of course paramount to skin health, but topical hydration is also super important.Using our Wild Rose Face Mist morning and evening has been shown to increase induction of collagen 1 and fibronectin both important components of the dermis while increasing both short term and long term hydration.  You can mist before your serum and throughout the day.

 

Use Hyaluronic acid 

Hyaluronic Acid is a natural component of the skin and it decreases as we age.  We need it to keep our skin cells nice and plump and to minimise the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Products that contain Hyaluronic acid like our beautiful Wild Plum Illuminating C Serum bring moisture to the surface of your skin and have the ability to draw and hold water. Resulting in plump, hydrated skin.The Wild Plum extract used in both our Wild Rose Mist and Wild Plum Serum consists of three Australian wildcrafted plums which have been shown to increase both short and long term hydration. 

 

Masking 

Masking is not only a self care ritual that can make you feel like a goddess, it can also keep those pesky breakouts at bay. Committing to a mask once or twice per week will help your skin feel smooth, plump and renewed. Our Wild Berry Honey Masque is the perfect weekly pick me up. A luscious honey based exfoliant / masque, rich in skin loving nutrients, antioxidants & the purest New Zealand halloysite clay. Nourishing, hydrating and skin brightening this multi tasking product will leave your skin looking incredibly healthy & beautifully radiant. 

 

Double cleanse 

Cleansing after one to many wines can feel like a bit of a mission, but trust me when I say you will thank yourself the next morning! Double cleansing is important as it ensures everything has been removed. The first cleanse removes makeup, dirt and debris from the day, whilst the second removes dead skin cells, meaning the products you apply afterwards can penetrate more deeply. Our Neroli Cleansing Oil gently cleans, balances, tones and nourishes the skin while the intoxicating scent of neroli, ylang ylang and grapefruit uplifts and refreshes you.
