Get Ready with Summer Fridays: Holiday Edition
‘Tis the Summer Fridays season. Explore our skin-prep and makeup tricks we swear by to keep our skin hydrated, dewy and photo-ready—no matter how packed our holiday calendar is.
Our Holiday Party Skin-Prep Routine
Glowing holiday party makeup starts before you reach for your favorite skin tint or blush. To get ready for a festive night out, we always start with a skincare routine that delivers a deep dose of hydration to give us a smooth canvas for makeup.
Here’s how we do it:
- Step 1: Cleanse with Super Amino Gel Cleanser. Wash away the day (and any makeup you may have been wearing) with a gentle cleanser formulated to replenish the skin and boost radiance.
- Step 2: Smooth skin with Gentle Reset Daily Exfoliating Pads. After drying the skin, go in with the smooth side of our Gentle ResetTM Daily Exfoliating Pads to apply the glow-boosting exfoliating formula. Then, buff away dead skin cells with the textured side to create an even base for makeup application.
- Step 3: Apply Jet Lag Eye Patches. Infused with Caffeine and Peptides, our Jet LagTM Eye Patches refresh, soothe and de-puff the eye area to help you look wide awake. We recommend leaving these on for at least 10 minutes while you pick out your outfit.
- Step 4: Soothe with Jet Lag Skin Soothing Hydration Mist. After removing the eye patches, give your skin an instant dose of hydration by spritzing on a light layer of Jet LagTM Mist. Its formula is packed with Glycerin, a super-powered humectant that locks in moisture to keep your skin (and makeup) looking fresh all night long.
- Step 5: Hydrate with Rich Cushion Cream Ultra Plumping Moisturizer. Finally, go in with a thick layer of an ultra-hydrating moisturizer like Rich Cushion Cream. Not only will the deep hydration create the best base for makeup, but it will also help plump the skin to reduce the appearance of fine lines and give you a youthful glow.

Our Party-Ready Makeup Essentials
For a lit-from-within holiday glow, use The Blush Brush to gently apply and blend your favorite shade of Blush Butter Balm into the cheeks. For a lifted look, place the blush slightly higher on the cheekbone. Or try a cold weather flush by applying it directly to the apples of the cheeks and tip of the nose.
Then, tap a little bit of blush onto the lips and amp up the glow by applying a light layer of Illuminating Drops to the high points of your face. Finally, for a dose of extra shine, swipe on Dream Lip Oil in a shade that is slightly deeper than the blush tone you picked.
The result—makeup that looks as effortless as it feels—just how we like it.
