Post-NYE (aka New Year's Day). Your body is punishing you for a night of all-out drinking, partying, and godknowswhatelse. Once you can actually roll your sorry ass out of bed (and by "you" I pretty much mean me), food is number 1. Skip the coffee, that will only dehydrate you more; potassium-rich OJ is your best bet, plus lots of H2O. Protein and carbs are definitely essential (classic breakkie food- eggs and toast). Next, get clean. New Year's Day is the only day I will even consider taking a bubble bath. Fresh's Milk Bath & Shower Cream is the best. It contains vitamins C, E and lactic acid which help in rehydrating skin. Plus, its enriched with evening primrose oil which is used as a natural hangover remedy because it can help reduce stomach and liver discomfort. Once you're out of the bath, slip into some cozy sweats and get comfy on the couch. They say that eyes are the windows to the soul and the bags, dark circles and bloodshot whites kind of obstruct the view. Take Sephora's Pearl Ice Cooling Mask by Inka, pop it in the fridge for an hour and place it on your tired peepers for 20-30 minutes. Bliss. And speaking of Bliss, treat your hands and feet to super-hydrating Bliss' Softening Socks and Glamour Gloves. Perfect time to re-watch your Sex and the City DVDs. Happy New Year lovers!!
