SEVEN FACE MASKS TO PERK UP YOUR SKIN

Give your face a boost after a boozy holiday season, says KATIE WRIGHT

AFTER a tiring 12 days of drinking, eating, partying and arguing with the in-laws, the New Year is finally upon us.

The start of the year always seems to arrive at the worst possible time – you’re weighed down after consuming a month’s worth of food in one week, and bleary-eyed after drinking well into the small hours.

Armed only with a long list of unlikely resolutions for company, January is a tiring month. But while this may not be the year that you stick to that new workout regime or overhaul your diet, there is a more manageable task you can take on right now – giving your face a lift after a full-on few weeks. Treat yourself to a post-Christmas present and try one of these masks, and you’ll be able to truly conquer January.
