If you’re anything like us, your summer (RIP) can best be summed up by two words: Overdoing It. Back-to-back weddings, long-haul flights, festivals, parties, after-parties – all topped off with a big, fat three-day weekend to cram in that last bit of indulgence before it’s over. Was it fun while it lasted? You betcha. But has all that eating, drinking and back-and-forthing also left us feeling bloated, hungover and low on motivation to face the season ahead? Absolutely. Rest assured, however, that there are a few tricks for snapping out of that post-summer slump in a jiffy, like a refreshed, renewed and more radiant version of your former self. Here, seven top health, wellness and skincare pros share their expert advice on how to redress the after-effects of a jampacked, spritz-fuelled summer and get your mind, body and skin back on track.

Ageing may be one of life’s inevitabilities, but gone are the days when men were expected to adopt a laissez-faire, hands-off approach and simply let nature run its course. Now, the overwhelming consensus is that if you’re planning to age exquisitely – like a full-bodied red or a Mr Paul Rudd – you’ll have to lay down an investment. Those who frequent The Journal will (we hope) be well aware of the long-term merits of daily sun-protection, skin-sloughing acids and retinol. But for that glowing, smooth complexion that seems to defy one’s date of birth? Well, you’ll have to go beneath the surface.

The effects of stress, pollution and general wear and tear can manifest in many ways. Skin can appear dull or we may have breakouts. Apart from maintaining skincare and self-care routines, a professional treatment can bring life back to our tired and stressed-out faces. These five holistic beauty spaces will calm your mind and make your skin glow

Dermatologists and aestheticians love it. The green-smoothies-and-self-care crowd love it. The Silicon Valley biohackers are raving about it from the rooftops. Red-light therapy, in all its myriad, high-tech forms, is easily the dominant wellness trend of the last year or so – and if you’re wondering what the fuss is about, we don’t blame you. For those who aren’t up on red-light or are baffled by the Darth Vader-like masks appearing on their social feeds, it’s worth a quick explainer. True to its name, red-light therapy harnesses varying wavelengths of red light (including infrared and near-infrared) to stimulate the skin cells. Benefits are said to include collagen stimulation, wrinkle reduction and the reduction of pigmentation, scarring and redness, and you’ll find it’s pretty much a fixture in every top aesthetic clinic.
