While we all look forward to indulging in festive delights, have you considered the incredible skin benefits of balanced eating during the holiday season?

At Murad we know that great skin is a combo of 4 Pillars of Wellness. This year, we even put some healthy tips & tricks on our gift sets! So we’re taking inspo from there to deliver YOU a series of skin-sparkling info.

Here are Dr. Murad’s 4 Pillars of Wellness. Stay tuned to learn more about each one.

1. Nourish Your Skin with our fabulous products
2. Eat Your Water.
3. Awaken Your Body.
4. Be Kind To Your Mind.

Let’s kick off this series with the WHY behind ‘Eat Your Water’:

Chugging litres of water every day can sometimes flush out too much. Yes, it gets rid of some toxins but you’ll spend a lot of time on the loo (excuse the potty talk) and you might flush out the good stuff too. Taking on board hydration via water-rich foods delivers a drip-feed to the body along with fibre, vitamins, antioxidants and minerals, all of which will benefit your skin and your body. Here’s what tat means for the holiday season:

Glowing Skin: A diet rich in antioxidants can give you that radiant holiday glow. So, when you're at the holiday party, everyone will be asking, "What's your secret to looking so fabulous?" Cram in fresh fruits and veggies before treating yourself to the ‘sometimes foods’ to get a head-start on the glow.

Boost Your Immunity: We all know how it goes… take a break and you come down with a cold. So eating a balanced diet rich in fruits and vegetables can supercharge your immune system. Load up on vitamin-packed goodies to ward off the Grinchy germs!

Stay Energised: Choose nutritious snacks like nuts, seeds, fibre-filled fruits or lean protein before you dip into the pile of lollies. Keep those batteries charged for holiday shopping, dancing and the office Chrissy party!

Reduce Stress: The holidays can be a whirlwind of excitement and sometimes stress (hello, mother in law!). Eating well can help manage stress levels, so you can stay calm, cool, and collected during all the family gatherings and holiday shopping sprees. Plus, take your time over meals to give your body a moment to absorb the goodness (did you know that stress hormones can reduce the body’s ability to take on nutrition) and your mind to have a little breather.

Santa’s Secret: Rumour has it that Santa himself gobbles up those carrots and leaves the cookies and milk for grandpa to munch on Christmas morning. Or maybe the carrots are the real secret to Rudolph’s glowing nose! Either way, don’t forget to leave some out this year!

Giftsets Galore: To kickstart your healthy holiday journey, we have a value-packed selection of Murad giftsets offering savings of up to 42% on usual product RRP Value (that’s more than $200 for freeeee!). Find the sets here. Tick everyone off your list and Get the Jumpstart on Joyful Skin!
