Top Skincare hacks for the freshers’ week and beyond…

Freshers’ Week is here and this year we are celebrating with you! Throughout Freshers, your skin can experience a lot… Loads of partying, a little or no sleep, not necessarily the healthiest diet and probably some alcohol. This can bring not welcomed skin surprises in a form of pimples, blemishes redness or simply tired-looking skin. That’s why at Skinsider we are celebrating this extremely important event with an amazing 20% off on skincare with a fantastic gift if you want.

Special Treatment

If your skin is acne-prone and blemishes are popping up from exhaustion of Freshers celebrations, look for gentle on the skin but powerful cosmetics to handle acne and blemishes. COSRX is perfect for oily skin prone to imperfections and blemishes. It is fantastic as all their products are gentle and aren't drying but handle spots.

No makeup make-up

Everyone wants to look good day and night. Especially during freshers’ season, you want to add a bit of coverage to keep your skin tone even and look fresh.

Love your scalp skin

A Fresher's week must-haves are a scalp scrub and a shampoo. Partying equals sweating, sweating equals greasy hair and clogged pores on your scalp.
