Whether at a party, on vacation or out in the winter cold, following a
few simple steps can help maintain healthy skin throughout the holiday
season, according to the experts at Smoothmed, a New York-based walk-
in botox boutique. To follow is a list of Smoothmed's do's and don'ts
to help keep skin merry and bright throughout the holiday season.

- Apply an extra dose of moisturizer prior to a party to help keep
skin hydrated.

- Increase acne regimen in days leading up to the party.

- Avoid salty foods for at least two to three days prior to a party to
prevent puffy eyes.

- Increase your water intake to keep yourself hydrated and counter the
effects of alcohol and chocolate.

- Don't get an injectable treatment such as Botox on the day of a
party. Make sure to plan a treatment two weeks in advance to allow the
treatment two to five days to work and to avoid bruising.

- Don't get a facial peel on the day of a party. This should be done
one week before an event to avoid redness and irritation.

- Test sun block on your skin before purchasing it to make sure it
doesn't irritate your skin.

- If you have sensitive skin, bring your own pillow case on a trip, as
your skin may react negatively to the hotel's laundry detergent.

- If you're going to be skiing, consider a heavy greasy moisturizer to
protect your skin from the cold wind.

- Don't put bug repellent directly on your skin. Instead, spray your
hat and collar.

- Pack all of your skin and acne products when going on a trip, as the
change in environment and diet can induce acne.
