As the winter holidays wind down, there will be an end to presents and holiday treats, and twinkle lights must be packed away until next year. But don’t let these goings-on get you down; you can still treat yourself with some innovative Aveda products. (And you don’t have to tell anyone that you’re buying a gift for yourself!)

• Hand Relief™ Night Renewal Serum — Cold, wintry weather can lead to dry skin. You may have tried many or even all other hand lotions with the promise of hydrating skin, but have had no success. You won’t have that problem with the newest hand relief item from Aveda. The Hand Relief™ Night Renewal Serum is similar to other products in the hand relief line, but packs a different punch: As a serum (not a creme), the night renewal serum’s ingredients, like the andiroba oil, not only moisturize skin, but can also help reduce dark spots and fill out fine lines. With all-natural ingredients, a citrus scent and as a serum that will actually help your dry skin, this is a product you want included in your nighttime routine as soon as possible.
• Soothing Aqua Therapy — If ensuring everyone in your family got the right gift this season or traveling to a relative’s house for the holidays stressed you out, then this is the product for you! Aveda’s Soothing Aqua Therapy for your bath lets you relax in comfort with its natural ingredients. The bath becomes the ultimate spa when adding aqua therapy. Add about two teaspoons of these Dead Sea salts to warm bath water and let yourself soak for about 10-20 minutes to receive all of aqua therapy’s benefits. These bath salts are combined with natural ingredients such as plant-based emollients to hydrate and smooth stressed skin all over the body. Whether you use soothing aqua therapy once a week or on a daily basis, incorporating it into your bath or shower will help alleviate the residual holiday stress in your life.

It may be another 360-some days until the holidays roll around again, but treating your skin to soothing Aveda products is a gift you can give yourself any time of the year.
