The most festive time of the year can also be the most stressful—but your skin can glow brilliantly as the lights on your tree or the candles on your mantle. Between buying gifts and travelling, make sure your complexion stays alive and invigorated with these three simple skincare rituals.

In the thick of winter, anyone’s skin (even oily) can experience water loss causing patchiness, dullness and dehydration. One of the best ways to quench skin’s thirst is with our simple two-step ritual.

1. Infuse skin with Marula Hydrating Serum for an instant rush of balanced, restorative hydration (the citrusy scent alone sends us to our happy place!), while soft, lightweight textures of nourishing oils give skin a huge boost of nutrition.

2. Complete with a layer of Camu Brightening Moisturiser, containing super-plumping sodium hyaluronate (a natural substance that retains 1000 times its own weight in water) and vitamin C for skin that lights up every room!

Well, not exactly. But, if you’re going from one temperature to another—whether it’s from indoor heating to a windy blizzard, or from an icy zone to the humid tropics—your skin may need to find its balance again. Care for skin by applying Kigelia Corrective Serum which calms redness and re-centres skin taking it back to its optimal healthy state. Then layer with Marula Hydrating Serum (pictured above) to restore natural oils and strengthen the skin’s delicate lipid barrier easily damaged with fluctuations in temperature. Remember, a strong skin barrier is the key to more vibrant, luminous and happy skin! 

As you jet-set to warmer destinations or visit family, the recycled in-flight cabin air can easily parch skin, causing it to wither or get gloomy. Exit the runway with picture-perfect plumped-up skin by spritzing your face with Camu Brightening Mist, flooding skin with droplets of sodium hyaluronate and Damascus rose water for instant hydration and vitamin C-loaded Camu camu berry to boost radiance.
