With a volley of festivals lined up in the next few months, looking and feeling your best is essential. There will be pals visiting you and festive occasions to attend. Regardless of where the get-together is, there will always be multiple occasions where you’ll have to outshine others. The only way to do this is to ensure that your skin glows from within with proper nourishment and a disciplined skin care regimen.
With the monsoon slowly ending and the fall around the horizon, you may also have to consider preparing your skin for the eventual wintry days.
Here are 13 skincare tips to make you look stunning in this festive season:
1. Hydrate yourself
Festivals or not, most people do not drink enough water. It is essential to drink a minimum of two liters of water to stay healthy and hydrated. If you are physically active, you may need to add another liter of water to compensate for all the fluids lost due to sweating.
Dehydration can cause skin-related issues and aggravate inflammatory conditions. So grab that jug and pour yourself some water!
2. Reduce alcohol consumption and quit smoking
Alcohol dehydrates your body and makes your skin look listless, making it hard for your body to assimilate nutrients. The NHS recommends no more than 14 units of alcohol per week for both men and women.
Quit smoking if you do. Smoking accelerates the process of aging and causes genetic mutations. Although festivals are great occasions to meet with friends and family, keep a tab on your pints and pegs.
3. Eat clean
Festivals bring about a lot of opportunities to eat processed, oily, and junk foods. Junk food can cause breakouts and worsen your acne condition. In addition, processed foods can cause lipid imbalance and elevated blood sugar levels.
Sleep works wonders on your body and your skin. It rejuvenates you from within and helps reduce cortisol levels, which are responsible for various health problems, including accelerated skin aging.
Sleep is when your skin repairs itself so that you wake up looking youthful and fresh. Sleep for at least eight hours every night, and avoid daytime napping.
5. Get some sunshine
Vitamin D is crucial for reducing inflammation and improving overall health. When your general health improves, your skin naturally starts to glow. Most importantly, getting enough sunshine ensures your metabolism is enhanced.
However, apply a good sunscreen cream such as RSB Sunscreen SPF 50++ to protect you against UVA and UVB rays.
6. Don’t avoid workouts
People often avoid workouts during the monsoon and winter as it is often hard to go out and visit the gym. However, by doing so, you are doing your skin a great disservice.
Working out and sweating it out helps cleanse your pores. In addition, exercising improves blood circulation, making your skin glow from within.
7. Try novel treatments to maintain a youthful look
Several new treatments help you maintain a healthy and youthful look even when you do not have skin-related concerns. Fire & Ice Facial is a great way to remove sun tan, while chemical peels can help your skin look fresher and more youthful. Microdermabrasion and PRP treatment are excellent for arresting early signs of aging and ensuring that you look young and fresh for a long time.
8. Consult skin care specialists for skincare tips
The festive season is probably the best time to address if you have skin-related concerns such as acne, blemishes, or hyperpigmentation.
RSB Wellness has several treatments, such as Q-Switched Laser, Hydra Facial, and Medi Facial. All these treatments help you attain glowing skin while addressing skin-related issues.
9. Follow post-treatment advice carefully
Skin tends to be sensitive post-treatment, and it is essential to keep it moisturized and wear sunscreen before stepping out. Each in-salon treatment is different and may require a variety of post-treatment skin care regimens.
Follow your skin care specialist’s advice, and do not forget your routine even when you have a festive party to attend.
10. Keep your skin clean
The rainy season tends to be humid, but the approaching fall can make things a little complex. Your skin becomes drier each month and also becomes susceptible to environmental pollutants.
Washing your face with a good cleanser is essential to keep your pores clean and avoid breakouts.
11. Hydrate your skin
Just as important as cleansing your skin is, it is also essential to hydrate your skin with a high-quality moisturizer. Moisturizers help to keep your skin smooth and supple during drier months. Most importantly, you can avoid that ashen look during festive gatherings.

12. Use sunscreen cream
Although we stressed the importance of getting some sun in tip #5, we must highlight that too much of anything is bad for the skin. Overexposure to the sun causes it to age quickly and also makes you prone to skin cancer.
Ensure you always cover your exposed body with a high-quality sunscreen, such as RSB Sunscreen SPF 50++.
13. Stay cheerful
Last but not least, try to remain cheerful during festivities. You may feel stressed out having to attend too many parties and get-togethers, or you may experience stress due to unrelated triggers. Try to maintain a cheerful disposition towards life, as it helps you feel motivated towards getting the self-care you need. And self-care is the primary philosophy behind skin care.
Your skin deserves TLC throughout these festive months.
As you can see, great-looking skin requires you to make lifestyle changes and seek professional help simultaneously. In addition, you will have to follow your skin care specialist’s advice to address your unique issues. If you undergo any salon or clinic treatments, follow post-procedure advice diligently. Most importantly, stay cheerful and give your skin the tender loving care it needs.
