Several factors can lead to skin looking seriously stressed, and the current cold climatic conditions certainly don’t help matters.

Alcohol, lack of sleep and a poor diet are all key causes of skin looking in dire need of a little TLC, and it’s fair to say that, for many people, all three are part and parcel of the festive season.

However, the absolute worst thing you can do is ignore the stressed state of your skin, as it’s likely to take a lot longer to get it looking back to its very best, and you could even find yourself trying to deal with long term damage.

There’s no excuse for leaving your skin to fester though, as there are lots of purse-friendly products on the market which will get your skin looking back to its very best in no time at all- one of which is the fantastic Dermalogica Multivitamin Power Recovery Masque.

Dermalogica Multivitamin Power Recovery Masque has thrown a lifeline to those with seriously stressed and dehydrated skin, and immediately gets to work on soothing, calming and repairing skin.

Invest in this product, and whatever the cause of your skin’s stresses, you can quickly enjoy a happier, healthier complexion.

Tis the season to be jolly- although this could be a lot easier said than done if you have found yourself the less than happy recipient of spots or a blemish. Even worse if, not only has your skin decided to let you down, but it’s done so right before your big Christmas bash.

It can be all too easy to start to panic and resign yourself to the fact that you’re going to spend your entire party feeling self conscious over the state of your skin, although there are ways of banishing these blemishes more quickly and enjoying complete skin confidence whilst you party.

The first thing which you need to avoid at all costs is picking at blemishes, as although it might be tempting it’s likely to leave the condition looking a lot worse.

Instead, arm yourself with products which have been specially designed to help to speedily shift spots and blemishes- such as those in the Dermalogica MediBac Clearing System range.

The Dermalogica Special Clearing Booster is great for quickly giving blemishes the boot, whilst the Concealing Spot Treatment is the perfect product for hiding skin imperfections whilst you wait for them to disappear.

There are plenty more products in the MediBac Clearing System range which will also get your skin back on the right track just in time for your party.

When a breakout decides to strike, clearing it up as quickly as possible can take over your whole life and it’s little surprise really, as spots and blemishes can really give confidence a knock.

A good concealer can go a long way in minimising the appearance of a breakout and ultimately minimising its effect on your confidence, and there are many good skin boosters and moisturisers which can help to clear up the condition.

You don’t have to confine your breakout battle to the daytime though, and you can also help to give them the push when you’re sleeping.

The term beauty sleep has never been so apt, as by investing in an effective product which is designed to get to work on restoring skin to its beautiful best whilst you’re in the land of nod, your breakout will be a thing of the past in no time at all.

Dermalogica Overnight Clearing Gel is amazing at getting to work on clearing skin when you’re snoozing, and simultaneously soothes irritation, helps to halt overactive sebaceous glands, gets rid of dead skin cells and slows down the production of the bacteria which can result in acne. So, as well as clearing existing breakouts, you can also reduce the risk of waking up with a new one.

Enjoy getting under the duvet is even more enjoyable when you know that you can rise and shine with clearer looking skin.

For many of us, Saturday night is THE highlight of the week, and we spend a large proportion of our working days counting down the hours, minutes and seconds until we can leave the office and get the weekend well underway.

If like many girls you spend hours preening in front of the mirror before a big night on the town, the last thing which you’ll want to experience is your makeup sliding halfway down your face the moment you step through the door.

Use the wrong products and the wrong application techniques though, and your skin isn’t likely to be looking its very best by the time you have left the first bar- never mind the end of the night.

Using an oil free moisturiser and an oil free foundation (if your skin type allows) will go a very long way in ensuring that your makeup stays put though, and that your face doesn’t resemble an oil slick come 3am.

Whilst it might be tempting to layer on the foundation and liquid bronzer in an attempt to avoid looking washed out under harsh club lights, heavy handed application is likely to make for an oily and uneven look as the night wears on.

If you already suffer with oily skin, try applying Dermalogica Oil Control Lotion- will help to ensure that you’re looking fresh faced even after a couple of cheeky cocktails.

Whenever a breakout decides to strike, it’s fair to say that clearing it up ASAP is a priority, and with the fantastic skin products which are available at the moment, this is now as easy as ever.

Whilst battling to get skin back to its beautiful best though, you do need to ensure that you don’t do anything which could aggravate the condition or make it spread. This means no unnecessary touching of skin- and definitely no picking of spots.

Before applying any products, it’s also vital to ensure that hands are as clean as possible. Again, this is key in ensuring that you aren’t adding to problems.

When you’re looking for a product which dries up breakouts quick-time, yet which doesn’t leave skin looking and feeling dry for months later, arm yourself with the fantastic Dermalogica Special Clearing Booster.

Dermalogica Special Clearing Booster not only dries out spots and blemishes quickly, but also helps to reduce the look of redness and irritation- which will make for a vast improvement in skin’s appearance.

Why put up with spots and blemishes any longer than you have to when you can quickly show them the door with the Dermalogica Special Clearing Booster?!
