How to hide a hangover
THERE’S GOT TO BE A MORNING AFTER, BUT WHO SAYS IT CAN’T BE AS ASPIRATIONAL AS THE NIGHT BEFORE? HERE’S YOUR GUIDE TO FEELING ALIVE THROUGH LONG LUNCHES AND LATE NIGHTS
WORDS BY KATE LANCASTER
If the night out is the performance, the morning after has become the encore. Brat-coded mess and excess might have popular culture in a chokehold, but recovery is now just as celebrated. On TikTok, ‘hangover beauty’ has spawned its own sub-genre, with routines for disguising dehydration, depuffing a tired face and emerging for brunch even fresher than you were the night before.
It’s the modern beauty paradox, where lymphatic treatments and probiotics are as inherent to the party season as minidresses and martinis. We’ve embraced indulgence but we’ve also rebranded its opposite, with rituals that promise to refresh and renew from the inside out. Here are the treatments and tricks to reshape your next-day reset throughout the silly season.
