Festive Season Survival Guide

It’s here! After a long, difficult year it’s finally time to take a break, sit back, relax and enjoy the company of friends and family while eating, drinking, and being merry! And while you’re following a different routine – staying up later, indulging a bit more – we have all you need to ensure you look and feel your best well into the new year.

 

HAIR LOSS

Have your locks lost their luster? Stress, diet, and even certain styling techniques can all contribute to hair loss. Luckily, there are a few Annique products and supplements that can help.

  • Improves hair growth, lustre and condition

 

STRESS

‘Tis the season to… reduce stress. With the endless amount of shopping, cooking, cleaning and entertaining, it’s no wonder stress abounds this time of year. Stress can also restrict the blood supply to your skin, which means less supply of oxygen, resulting in tired and dull-looking skin.

BREAKOUTS

Beauty blunders are bound to happen during the holidays as excessive amounts of sugar and alcohol paired with less than optimal skincare routines cause your skin to retaliate.
