The Complete 2025 Glow Up Guide
Skin
Our skin often reflects our lifestyle and after the whirlwind of the festive season, it’s the perfect place to start. Here are some of our tips to help renew your radiance, with beautiful glowing skin
1. Detox Your Routine
-
Review & simplify your routine: focus on gentle cleansers, hydrating serums, and barrier-repairing moisturisers.
-
Clean out expired products: Check the labels on your skincare. Is anything outdated or causing irritation? It’s time to let it go.
-
Book a facial and start incorporating targeted treatments
-
Start with the Circadia Oxygen RX Facial + Treatment Mask, it’s just what your skin needs to remove any build-up of that holiday indulgence and leave your skin fresh and glowing, ready for the new year.

Hydrate, Inside and Out
-
Drink plenty of water and use a hyaluronic acid serum to restore moisture levels.
-
Add a healthy dose of electrolytes to your morning H2O
-
Protect Your Skin
-
Commit to daily sunscreen use—even in winter. UV damage doesn’t take a holiday, and protecting your skin is non-negotiable.
-
Add a nourishing, rich Vitamin C to your morning skincare regime to help protect against free-radicals during the day and keep pigmentation at bay.
Mind
A calm mind sets the tone for a balanced life. Taking as little as 10 minutes a day can truly transform your mindset and help reduce stress and inflammation throughout the body and in 2025, we’re glowing from the inside out.
-
Start a Gratitude Practice
-
If you’re not doing this already, buy yourself a journal and pick up a pen, making a habit to write down three things you’re thankful for each day. A small habit that can make a big change, it’ll help shift your mindset dramatically.
-
Declutter Your Space
-
Clean out bathroom cupboards, organise your makeup drawer and sift through your wardrobe; having a clean, organised and balanced physical environment can help dramatically reduce any mental stress and anxiety.
-
Throw out old products, expired skincare and sift, sort or sell clothes you no longer wear, it’s time to make way for the new!
-
Digital Detox
-
In 2025 we’re clearing the mental clutter and setting boundaries with screen time and social media. Whether it's deleting duplicates in our photo albums, unsubscribing from emails, or cancelling unnecessary subscriptions, we’re turning ‘do not disturb’ on and silencing notifications past 8 pm. We’re no longer tying ourselves to our phones.
-
Practice Mindfulness
-
However you choose to make time for ‘you’, whether it’s going for a run, sitting in a sauna, doing meditation or simply chilling out listening to music, try and schedule at least 5-10 minutes a day to slow down, focus on your breath and bring it all back to centre.
Body
After weeks of indulgence, your body deserves some extra care. Incorporating some of the following tips can help you recharge and energise the body, ready to take on the year ahead with ease.

Nourish with Intent
-
Detox your diet with a focus on whole foods: think fresh fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and healthy fats. Consider adding a green smoothie or probiotic to your daily routine.

Move Daily

Find ways to increase circulation within the body and you’ll instantly reap the benefits in more ways than one. Whether it’s yoga, a walk by the beach, or a dance class, find movement that feels good for you.

Prioritise Sleep

Soul

-
Set Intentions, Not Resolutions
-
2025 is all about balance, and instead of hard and fast resolutions, focus on how you want to feel rather than rigid goals. For example, “I want to feel more energised” rather than “I need to lose 5kg.” and then map out what you can do each day to achieve this.

Connect with Nature and rest your circadian rhythm
-
A healthy circadian rhythm can have a huge positive impact on our day-to-day life. Find ways to ground yourself and connect with nature, get a healthy dose of sunlight in the morning and spend time outdoors.
