With all the grocery shopping and present wrapping, prepping your skin ahead of the holiday season is probably the last thing on your mind. However, it can be one of the greatest gifts you give yourself this December. Beauty is a multi-billion-dollar global industry that is constantly evolving, providing women with the latest innovations to look and feel their best. However, with the economy looking the way it does right now \u2013 dismal \u2013 we\u2019re finding that we aren\u2019t able to splurge on the \u2018nice to haves\u2019 as much as we\u2019d like to. \u201cLuckily, there is light at the end of the tunnel,\u201d says Su-Marie Annandale brand manager for Clere skincare. \u201cKeeping your skin healthy and beautiful does not always mean having to spend large sums of money on the latest skincare products.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She adds that there are many simple, affordable, and easy elements that you can incorporate into your health and skincare routines that will work towards a beautiful looking skin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Annandale shares the following tips:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. Taking care of your skin from the inside out is very important and the first step is to ensure that you are well hydrated. Be mindful that you are drinking enough water throughout the day.<\/li>
  2. Exfoliate regularly, ideally twice a week, to remove dead skin cells from your body and leave your skin prepped and ready to absorb moisturiser. Creating your own body scrub is cost effective and you can make it to suit your skin concerns by adding either of the following to your body lotion or cr\u00e8me: Salt will help relax your muscles, sugar is gentler on the skin, ground coffee has the benefit of caffeine to constrict blood vessels and oatmeal is the gentlest exfoliant to soften and hydrate the skin. Add your favourite essential oils to help relax, soothe, or energise. Once finished applying rinse off in the shower.<\/li>
  3. Avoid baths that are too hot as this can dry out your skin.<\/li>
  4. Apply a nourishing body lotion or cr\u00e8me, ideally to your slightly damp skin. Clere\u2019s range of cr\u00e8mes and lotions consist of four unique formulations to suit all skin needs: Pure Glycerine Cr\u00e8me, Triple Glycerine, Tissue oil and Pure Glycerine and Glycerine Gel. All four formulations provide 48-hour moisturisation and contain Vitamins E & A which are gentle, yet effective.<\/li>
  5. Lastly, sleep is vital. It is called \u2018beauty sleep\u2019 for a reason. When you sleep your body has time to repair and recover. Not only will you wake up with a glowing complexion, but you will also encourage your body to generate collagen, which helps fight wrinkles.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    While the fountain of youth may never be found, by implementing these tips into your routine, you will help your skin look youthful and feel beautiful, Annandale concludes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Clere\u2019s range of cr\u00e8mes and lotions are available at all leading retailers at a cost of R34.99 and R21.99, respectively.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
