[ad_1]

It’s Blue Monday i.e. the day scientifically proven to be the most depressing of the year. But don’t let that dampen your mood… We’re prescribing the ultimate beauty pick-me-up.

Arming yourself with brightening and uplifting tonics can give you an instant boost when you’re feeling the January rage. 

And, FYI, excessive frowning can cause wrinkles…

'Let go of the need to be perfect for 2016,' says Dr Howard Murad, dermatologist and founder of Murad skincare.

'Cultural stress is a term I came up with to describe everyday stress. If you don’t find a way to handle it, you’ll find your happiness, sleep and even health will suffer.'
