Thanksgiving is here and it’s time for turkey and pumpkin pie which, of course, is just the kick off to the holiday overflow of insatiable sweets. We often forget what this indulgence can do to your complexion. As the holiday season begins to rear its roller-coaster-ride-head: traveling, family affairs, late nights and shopping sprees are on the horizon. While the end of the year is festive and full of cheer, it can wreak havoc on your skin–going from fresh and dewy to Brilo pad overnight. Before Santa hits the malls, a simple point and click to these 5 products will have you stocked up for a radiant glow all season long!

SkinCeuticals Micro Exfoliating Scrub – Designed to help open congested skin, this luxurious scrub will slough away dead skin leaving you with a smooth, even complexion. This mild exfoliating gel combines natural microbeads with gentle cleansing and hydrating agents to thoroughly cleanse pores and promote healthy cell renewal without damaging or drying skin. Diatomaceous earth microbeads are formulated at maximum density to provide intense and even exfoliation without causing lacerations. Additionally, the highest purity of aloe softens polished skin.

Obagi Professional-C Serum 20% – This professional strength serum uses advanced scientific formulas developed and tested by leading Vitamin C experts. Obagi Professional-C 20% offers maximum daily antioxidant protection and greater penetration than other Vitamin C products. The greater the penetration, the greater the antioxidant benefit to your skin.

NeoStrata Ultra Moisturizing Face Cream – Staying hydrated is always a challenge during the holidays. We pull late nights, eat gluttonous foods and toast to one too many New Year’s resolutions. When you don’t hydrate your body, the first place you’ll notice it is on your skin. When you’re hitting the slopes and visiting higher altitudes, lotions, which contain more water than creams, will evaporate almost immediately upon skin contact. Whereas a cream moisturizer will actually penetrate into the skin and create a shield against harsh, drying weather.

NeoStrata Ultra Moisturizing Face Cream is an antioxidant moisturizer formulated to gently exfoliate, moisturize, and restore the skin, reducing the visible signs of aging on the face and neck. It helps calm and strengthen the protective barrier of dry, stressed and sensitive skin. As part of a daily PHA regimen, this formula has been shown to reduce skin vulnerability and redness over time, and to significantly improve texture, firmness, lines, and overall skin clarity.

iS Clinical Youth Eye Complex – My, what big eyes you have! When your beauty nemesis makes a snarky remark about how tired you look, you know it’s time to resuscitate those baby blues. This breakthrough formula utilizes “intelligent proteins” to combat the signs of aging at a cellular level. These proteins are clinically proven to target damaged sites and help regenerate skin. Powerful peptides, key growth factors and potent antioxidants rapidly reduce wrinkles, puffiness and dark under-eye circles to keep skin moist, smooth and protected all day long.

RevitaLash Volumizing Mascara – Maximize your lashes! With a high performance, clump-free formula your lashes will look thicker, fuller and more luscious than ever. The custom designed brush will separate and define for an eye-popping finish. Used together with RevitaLash the results are even more stunning. This volumizing Mascara by RevitaLash frames your eyes so your true beauty shines through. Between the Youth Complex Eye Treatment, a few drops of Visine and a wave of this waterproof mascara wand, Holiday party hopping will not affect how fabulous you look!
