Bouncing Back From The Holidays

Christmas can be the best of times…and the worst of times. The flurry of parties, eating, shopping, getting glammed up, and one too many cocktails are fun but exhausting.

Here are some ideas to get you back in the game, once the (Christmas) dust has settled:

Put Your Feet Up.

Prancing around in heels are more painful that we’d care to admit. Soothe those calves with a foot massage and a cooling leg gel. Make this break work double time with a home facial too.

Mustela Light Legs Cooling Gel, Jade Roller, & Marula Oil

Catch Up on those ZZZs.

A Netflix marathon plus a good 8-10 hours of sleep is just what the doctor ordered. Dreamland is where your mind and body restores its balance.

Fae Vendillon Candle, ItWorks Deep Sleep Night Oil, & Pixi Beauty Sleep Cream

Get Moving.

Once you’ve regained some strength, its time to get those endorphins flowing. Get off that couch and hit the gym, salute the sun, spin... anything that gets you back on your feet.

Yoga RatPad, YogaRat Sportlite Towel, & Sparrow Dristhi Mat Spray

Slim & Trim. STAT.

Burn those calories with tried and tested creams. Sorry, these aren’t Christmas miracles of any sort. But combined with some restraint and exercise (see idea number 2), you WILL see faster results.
