Your 4 Week Pre-Party Skincare Plan
Party-season is fast approaching. From Hanukkah and Christmas to New Year, the end of the year is abuzz with celebration. Likely your calendar is already filling up with potential party plans and decadent dinners. As well as curating your party wardrobe, it's time to get your best accessory ready - gorgeous, glowing skin.
It's never to early to start with our 4 week skincare plan...
4 WEEKS BEFORE
4 weeks may seem like a long time away from festivities but it’s never too early to start your party prep. If you haven't already, it's time to start with LED light therapy and microcurrent toning.
TOP TIP: take a selfie before you begin so you can see the difference!
Morning Routine = Clean + Light
Supercharge your morning cleansing routine with the XO LightsOut LED Cleansing Brush. Use with any cleanser in the shower or at the sink, this micro-sonic device will give you a thorough cleanse and facial massage. Switch on the red LED light setting to give an extra boost, promoting skin firmness and encouraging collagen production.
Before you apply your moisturiser and SPF, massage in a few drops of PraNaturals Vitamin C Serum. Designed to revitalise and repair damaged or prematurely-aged skin, Vitamin C supports the natural production of collagen - a protein that plays a key role in maintaining healthy skin.
Evening Routine = Lift + Light
In the evening you might have a little more time for skincare, so we suggest ramping up the routine a little. If you don't have the time do this every night, try to commit to 3 nights a week.
LiftOff Microcurrent Facial Toning
Microcurrent toning is like going to the gym, but for your face. So you can't go once and expect a six pack! But regular 'exercise' will result in a more toned complexion. Once your skin is fully cleansed, you can start your 5 minute toning routine. Find out more about LiftOff and how to use it here.
Next up, before you apply your lotions and potions, it's time to GetLit! Pop the mask on with the red LED light setting and sit back and relax. Red LED light has been shown to encourage collagen and elastin production, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. The mask will turn off automatically after 15 minutes.
Finish off your nighttime routine with the moisture boosting PraNaturals Hyaluronic Acid Serum, before applying your night cream and eye cream. Hyaluronic Acid Serum is specially formulated to intensively hydrate the skin, leaving it feeling plumped, moisturised and healthy.
TOP TIP: Don’t use Retinol Serum within 24 hours before or after LiftOff as it may irritate the skin.
3 DAYS BEFORE = DEEP CLEANSE
Now your skin should be looking amazing, it's time for a final deep cleanse before the big do. 3 nights before, once your skin is fully cleansed ...
SteamAhead Hydrating Facial Steamer
Go full SteamAhead for up to 10 minutes to soften and loosen any blackheads as well as hydrating the skin.
ScrubUp Ultrasonic Pore Scrubber
Now those blackheads are nice and loose, it's time to scrub them out! Making sure your skin is wet, set ScrubUp to the cleansing setting and watch the ultrasonic waves dislodge all that gunk. So satisfying.
When you're done, give your skin a final cleanse, pat dry and then switch ScrubUp to moisturising mode and use flat side of a spatula to help infuse the PraNaturals Hyaluronic Acid Serum before you finish off with your night cream.

Okay, so the big day has finally arrived! Before you make a start on your makeup, you can give a final boost to your already glowing skin.
