We’re in the midst of the festive season. Between late-night parties, early-morning meetings, and the alarming realisation that your “quiet weekend” is now a three-event marathon, your skin might be staging a rebellion. The dullness creeps in, the glow disappears, and you’re left looking like you locked up the bar the night before.
For when squeezing in a facial, a dermat appointment, or a 12-step routine isn’t remotely realistic, these quick fixes step in to give you glow on demand. From vitamin-C-charged serums to a rubber mask that mimics a professional treatment, these glow-getters work overtime so you can look dewy and composed (even if you’re just running on caffeine and adrenaline).
Below, five tried and tested products that’ll help you look alive even when you probably don’t feel it at all. Your social battery might be dying, but at least your skin will glow.
