Yep, same! Superstar facialist, skin expert *and mum, Michaella Bolder, shares her favourite tips and products for making your face look less worn out. “Whenever i’m feeling tired or groggy, I like to ice my face. Simply take an ice cube straight from the freezer and wrap it in a thin face cloth and smooth it over your skin. Move in fluid motions and gently swoosh it around the eye area and then up and down the neck. This cooling method instantly reduces swelling and puffiness as it shrinks blood vessels, and it also tightens the skin.” Incorporate Facial Massage Into Your Routine “Use a gentle cleanser and try and incorporate some facial massage like in the video shown below. It’s so good for brightening and lifting. I like to use Elemis Pro Cleansing Balm, Sunday Riley and Emma Hardie. They’re all fabulous cleansers that you can do this with.” Elemis Pro Cleansing Balm Use an Oil to Massage “If you prefer to use an oil, then keep one by your bedside and do it when you get into bed at night after cleasning.” Darphin 8-Flower Golden Nectar Oil (30ml) Use a Multi-Tasking Serum “Always use Vitamin C in the morning to help brighten and stimulate collagen. Renergie H.C.F Triple Serum from Lancome is great as it’s got Vitamin C in it and moisturising hyaluronic acid and niacinamide, it’s three serums in one, so great for busy mums.” Lancôme Rénergie H.C.F Triple Serum, 50ml Don’t Forget to Moisturise “A simple step that’s often forgotten. I really like Augustinus Bader, which is great for moisturising dry skin.” Augustinus Bader, The Rich Cream Cool Tired Skin “If you want a lighter moisturiser, I recommend a gel-based formula. Keep it in the fridge so it’s extra cool. I’m currently using Clarins. Anything cooling is great for calming tired skin.” Clarins Hydra-Essentiel Matte Gel, 75ml Opt for a Lightweight Eye Cream “Advanced Genefique is a great eye cream, it’s a very light formula that can be tapped into the skin and doesn’t make it feel tacky.” Lancôme Advanced Génifique Eye Cream, 15ml Exfoliate Often “Exfoliating your skin is good for brightening and I’d use a gentle chemical exfoliator and do this at least once a week.” MEDIK8 PRESS AND GLOW TONIC REFILL 200ML The Most Important Skin Tip “Protecting your skin is the best way to stop signs of ageing. So if you want your skin to look more youthful, this is a step you should never skip.” Murad City Skin Age Defense Broad Spectrum SPF50 PA ++++ 50ml “These simple steps will make a huge difference to the appearance of your skin.” Follow Michaella on Instagram *All products on this page have been selected by our editorial team, however, we may make a commission on some products.
