Keep refreshments on hand
Combat irritated skin with a calming skin tonic, says Jordana Mattioli, a clinical aesthetician at Ajune, a medical spa in NYC. Fill a spray bottle with mineral water, add a drop of lavender oil and a drop of rose oil (both are natural skin-soothers), and keep it in your desk at work for midday misting. Dullness and Wrinkles
Your body responds to your anxiety by directing blood flow to vital areas like your heart and lungs and withdrawing it from nonessential areas like on your skin, says plastic surgeon Mauro Romita, founder of Ajune, a medical spa in New York City. As a result, your skin’s cell-renewal process slows down, which means it doesn’t naturally exfoliate itself as often, and the amount of free radicals (cell-damaging molecules) in your skin increases. Both of these are major causes of dull skin and premature aging.
Damage Control

Use your middle fingers to press the inner corners of your eyes gently for a few seconds. Now do the same on the areas right above the centers of your eyebrows then move to the outer corners of your eyes.
