The countdown has begun… There’s the rush to buy presents, organise meals, decorate the tree… But what about taking a moment for yourself?
First prepare your skin
A family Christmas meal or dinner with friends for the 31st, two reasons to treat yourself to beautiful skin!
A few days before
Try the winning combination exfoliator and mask. It’s the best way to get rid of the dead skin cells and give your skin a healthy glow. How often? Twice a week maximum.

To look after your eyes !
You might be feeling a bit tired by the end of the year so don’t forget to look after your eye contour! It’s the best way to keep your eyes looking fresh. Moisturize this sensitive area and prevent the appearance of lines and wrinkles. What to do: apply the cream on the eye contour, from the inner eye towards the outer eye to drain the tissue. Be delicate, this is a very sensitive area.

Make sure your
make-up lasts longer on the day
The festive party season is the perfect time to get out the glitter and experiment with new make-up styles. To stay perfect late into the night, follow our skin experts’ advice!
A few days before
Don’t forget to exfoliate. A deeply cleansed and moisturized skin helps make-up last longer than thirsty, dehydrated skin. If your skin is tight, apply a regenerating and hydrating mask overnight. In the morning your skin will be smooth and plump!

On the day
Think hydration. Healthy smooth supple skin makes you look instantly radiant. Moisturize in the morning and use a serum before your face cream for optimum hydration.

Don’t forget
re-moisturize just before!
Just before applying your make-up on New Year’s Eve, hydrate your skin. Ideally remove the day’s residue with an express make up removal, apply your moisturising cream after the serum, wait a few minutes for this to sink into the skin and then do your make-up. Why? Again, perfectly hydrated skin helps your make-up last longer! One final tip? Use a mattifying cream as your make-up base.

And then it’s time to detox
Big meals, little sleep, too much chocolate and so many other indulgences…Your liver can’t take it anymore and your complexion is a little (ok, very) dull.
On the day
even if you go to bed very late, make sure you always remove your make up. If you do go to bed with your make-up still on, the next day make sure you exfoliate your skin and apply a hydrating mask.

A few days later
cleanse your skin with a regulating lotion and use a detoxifying mask. Make an appointment with an IOMA expert for a deep oxygenating treatment.
