Full holiday glam can make the smaller 2020 holiday gatherings more fun! Yes, the holidays may look a lot different this year but just because you’re staying at home or rocking a mask doesn’t mean you should skip out on the opportunity for to-go full Holiday glam!
Follow this guide of festive treatments that will make your skin glow and your brows & lashes shine this holiday season.
1 Lashes Are Key To Holiday Glam
Full Holiday Glam: Lash extensions is a quick way to make your eyes stand out! Already have extensions? Go for a bolder lash opposed to a natural look. For an extra wow factor you can add colored lashes of red, green and sparkle to pair with a festive mask!
Keep it natural: If you are more low maintenance, a great alternative to lash extension is a lash lift + tint. This treatment curls your lashes as well as helps them to grow longer and stronger for your next outing!
Want to skip the spa? Try a lash growth serum, there are so many brands of lash growth serums on the market right now.

Best Spa Body Treatments

5 Best Treatments for Holiday Glam Skin this Holiday
The secret to perfect holiday makeup is to have a good foundation of healthy skin.
When a client comes to me for big events, my go-to treatment plan is dermaplaning with hyderodermabrasion. Infuse a hyaluronic acid, peptide rich serum for the ultimate holiday glam glow.
Microcurrent is also another treatment that can add firmness, lift and luminosity to the skin. This is a great red carpet treatment.
You can also add a freshening, mild chemical peel. So many brands offer peels that are ideal to boost brightness and offer immediate results that are ideal for red carpet ready skin.
6 Suggest an Easy At-Home Holiday Glam Express Facial To Clients

Exfoliate with a mild physical scrub to remove excess debris.
Plump with a hyaluronic acid serum.
Hydrate with a deliciously rich moisturizer.
