As the Christmas decorations start to come down and any final champagne glasses hiding behind the couch after New Years Eve have since been discovered, now is the time to hit refresh on your skin. An at-home DIY spa session needn’t be a laborious task (though more power to you for making the commitment if so) for often the smallest switch-ups to your skincare can make all the difference. Take Sara Sampaio, who’s recent Instagram post has us re-evaluating our pout-plumping and pimple-zapping efforts. Posting spa inspo selfie to Instagram, the Victoria’s Secret Angel knows how to double her skincare efforts by using her pimple fighting time to also plump her lips.

With her lips layered in a pout-plumping gel mask, at the same time that her blemishes were being busted, Sampaio told her followers: “Was going to put a sexy pic, but this sums up me right now! ?? snapchat: sarasampaio #spaday Ps: Just because you guys asked, lip mask is sephora and pimple thingy is toothpaste, sensodyne if it matters ? Pss: no, I don’t know if toothpaste works! But it psychologically makes me think tomorrow they’ll be gone!”
Toothpaste has long been lauded for its ability to dry out pimples and accelerate healing time, while souped-up sheet masks designed for lips work like lip balm on steroids, deeply nourishing and plumping dried-out pouts with moisture. Kick off your New Year with a clearer, spot-free complexion and a pair of selfie-ready lips by adding Sara’s Angel-approved beauty buys below.
