How not to fall asleep on New Year’s Eve? How to cheer up before the holiday?
On New Year’s Eve, many people are busy with urgent matters: someone continues to close work processes, someone goes shopping, and someone from the very morning prepares festive dishes. It is not an easy task to stay awake from the morning until late at night. But even with it you can cope with it, applying a few lifehacks.
Before showering, give your skin a dry massage with a kese mitt or a regular stiff brush. Walk in a circular motion from your ankles to your shoulders in the direction of lymph. This massage stimulates blood circulation and activates metabolic processes. It also exfoliates the skin and helps you finally wake up.
Next, take a contrast shower. Shower gel with the aroma of citrus or pine plants will energize you and put you in a good mood.

If the logistics of getting around in the morning feel like a one-day round-the-world trip, there’s little chance you’ll be in a good mood and energized by evening. Anything that can be ordered by online delivery, order it. Anything that isn’t urgent, cancel it. No need to ruin your mood by standing in traffic. Are those olives or confetti really that important? And do you have to go to the other side of town to pick up gifts at the last minute? Try replacing them with e-certificates or order gifts online with delivery. Also reduce the number of meals you cook yourself. Better yet, spend that time with your family.
Make a cooling mask
Put a disposable face mask and patches in the refrigerator. In between preparations, put on the mask from the fridge for 20 minutes, put the patches under your eyes. The icy effect helps to get rid of bags and circles under the eyes, tones the skin and gives a charming blush.
Maintain water balance
New Year’s Eve is no reason to throw off your drinking regimen. First glass of water after waking up, 4-6 glasses throughout the day. They can be with lemon to invigorate. And then alternate each glass of alcohol with a glass of water in the evening to reduce the risk of intoxication.
Spend the evening being active
Celebration is no longer synonymous with feasting. Take a walk during the day in the fresh air. Plan active games with guests, for example, the game “Crocodile”. And do not ignore dancing! In the evening, you can not only watch fireworks, but also roll down a hill or play snowballs. Physical activity promotes the production of endorphins, and at such times you will certainly not want to sleep.
Try not to drastically change your regime from December 31 to January 1. After all, it is better to start the new year not with a week on the couch, but with a fresh head and in a good mood!
