New year, new me! Everyone knows that phrase. Do you already have good resolutions? Often they fade quickly because they may be too far from your current routine or you may have set too many goals. In this blog, we’ll share easy and achievable resolutions that will benefit you greatly! We split the resolutions into three beauty categories: Haircare, skincare and make-up. Check them out, because with these tips you'll shine through 2023! Time for some new, good habits!
Good resolutions: hair care
New year, new hair! Let’s start with good Haircare resolutions.
2023: no more damaged hair for you!
Be aware: damaged hair is just around the corner. Rubbing your hair dry quickly with a rough towel can already cause breakage. So check out these handy tips you can apply:
- Don’t rub your hair dry; pat (or squeeze) it instead. If you always dry your hair with a towel, avoid rubbing. The friction causes damage. The best thing to do is pat your hair dry or wrap it in a towel and secure it on your head like a turban. Pro tip? Use an old t-shirt instead of a towel. That’s even gentler on your hair!
- Don’t shower with very hot water. Heat damages hair. It’s best to wash your hair with lukewarm water. You can also rinse your hair with cold water after showering. This helps close the hair cuticles for strong, shiny hair! Brrrr... But all for a good cause, right? ;)
- Don’t forget to give your hair some extra love. You can give your hair a little extra care with a hair mask, hair oil, leave-in conditioner or hair serum. Protect your hair, nourish it, hydrate it and you’ll notice the difference!

This year you’ll enjoy your coloured hair longer!
Not only will you enjoy your new hairdo longer, but you also save money in the end! Caring well for your coloured hair keeps the colour vibrant longer, so you won't need to visit the hairdresser as often.
Colour fading or dullness can have several causes. The first is how often you wash your hair. So try to wash it less often. The second is the hair products you use. Avoid shampoos with sulfates; these cleansing agents can fade hair colour faster. Choose a gentle shampoo that won’t affect your colour. You can find all products for coloured hair here.
Now that the baSis are covered, here are three more tips so you can enjoy your coloured hair longer.
- Firstly, try to avoid heat as much as possible. Heat makes colour fade faster. In summer, use a UV-Spray and Spray a heat protectant when using heat tools.
- Secondly: give your hair an occasional extra treat. Dyeing is a chemical process, so extra care does no harm! Choose a nice hair oil and you’re good to go.
- And our last tip: a colour refresher! Want to freshen up your coloured hair? Use a colour mask or shampoo and you're good to go!

Good resolutions: skincare
Everyone feels great when their skin is healthy and glowing. For 2023, we’ve listed four good skincare resolutions:
Drink more, drink more, drink more
Drinking enough water daily is super good for your skin. Water keeps your skin well hydrated, helps reduce dark circles faster, and makes your skin feel more elastic.
Never leave without SPF this year
The number one remedy against skin ageing! The sun can cause a lot of skin damage, and SPF helps protect against that. It’s important to use SPF even in winter.
Cleanse your face every morning and evening
Especially if you often wear makeup. And while you’re at it, apply a day or night cream immediately after cleansing. Still looking for the Perfecte skincare routine? We put one together:
skincare day!
Schedule a skincare day for yourself every Sunday (or any other preferred day). It’s also a great chance to enjoy some me-time, win-win! Cleanse your face as above and use a lovely mask. While it sets, you can relax and enjoy a book or magazine. Relax!
Take good care of yourself inside and out!
Of course, it’s important to care for your skin with the right skincare. But don’t forget to nourish your skin from the inside, too. Healthy eating has a poSitive effect on your skin condition. It can be tricky to get all vitamins in a busy life. To make it easier, we added new supplements this year! We’ve listed some effective skin supplements:
- Vitakruid Collagen Solugel: supports collagen production in the body, which helps reduce wrinkles and keeps the skin firm.
- Vitakruid Silsolutions: promotes healthy hair, skin and nails. With this miracle drink, you’re set in one go!
- Vitakruid Fish Collagen: suitable for maintaining strong and elastic skin.
- Oase Skin Vitamins: these gummies are packed with ingredients to nourish your skin from within for a radiant result!
Good resolutions: make-up
New year, new look! You probably love to put on make-up sometimes, or maybe every day. We’ve gathered some good make-up resolutions just for you that will definitely help in 2023!
It’s a crime not to prime!
There’s nothing worse than looking in the mirror after work or school and seeing your foundation, bb-Cream or tinted Cream looking patchy. Always use a primer. A primer prevents this and keeps your skin looking even. The Max Factor Miracle Prep Pore MinimiSing & Mattifying Primer is a Perfecte baSis for your make-up. It also reduces visible redness on your face.
Less foundation, more concealer
Wearing make-up is no secret and not a problem if seen. But the foundation line at the chin or the wrong shade – nobody wants that. From now on, foundation and concealer are best friends and will work together to make your skin look beautifully even. Use foundation as a base, not necessarily to cover pimples etc. A small pump is enough. You can also dilute the foundation with a drop of oil or cream. Then apply concealer to the t-zone, under the eyes and on blemishes.
We love Eyeshadow!
How fun is it to try multiple looks? Just enjoy some me-time and try out different eyeshadow looks. Fun, right? It’s enjoyable and you’ll have your eye look practised for the next party!
Throw away old make-up
Make-up also has an expiry date. When it’s not good anymore, bacteria can build up. This is especially true for eye make-up, which can cause irritation or infections. You want to avoid this, so get rid of old make-up! Here are the average expiry dates:
- Powder and eyeshadow: two years
- Foundation: one year
- Lipstick: one year
- Mascara: three months
Just enjoy that party!
Invited to a fun party but want to cancel because you’re short on time? No need. You can go straight from work to the party. Quickly read our blog: From work look to party look in 5 minutes! This way you don’t miss out!
