EDITOR’S LETTER
E
very issue we talk about skin concerns,
how to avoid these issues in the first place,
and the skin care products to tackle the
skin concerns we can’t avoid. Something we’ve
never talked about before (and I’m sooo excited
to introduce this to you!) are the tools to help
us make better use of those products: accessories!
Many products are not so easy to apply — some
masks in particular can be a little messier than
they look. Having the right accessory can
enhance the efficacy of a single product or help
to eliminate the quirky little annoyances that
you may have thought were inevitable. For
example, did you know you don’t have to get
get stray strands of hair stuck in your serum as
you massage it into your forehead? And messy
drips can be avoided? In fact, I think once you’ve
applied a charcoal mask without getting black
smears on the collar of your favourite pyjamas,
you’ll wonder how you ever lived without
Skincity’s The Mask Brush.
This issue is also our last before Christmas, and
we are getting in the mood to celebrate! While
you may think October feels early to start think-
ing about the festive period, we say: “That’s why
you were dashing around like mad last year!”
Our Mind & Wellbeing column breaks down
what you can start doing now to ensure an
organised, relaxing and magical December.
Speaking of festive, we suspect you’ll be attend-
ing more social events than usual. We of course
want you to eat, drink and be merry, but we
certainly don’t want your skin to suffer. So check
out the two party-themed articles by our con-
tributor, Shari Shallard, to help you make skin-
friendly choices before, during and after your
nights out.
The holiday season can also bring cold, harsh
weather. Take time to read about dry skin fixes
from our Beauty Editor, Danielle Hadley, to
make sure your hands and lips are hydrated and
soft for all those New Year’s Eve hugs and kisses.
Until next year, all of us at Skin Health
Magazine wish you a happy, healthy and
radiant festive season.
Happy reading!
