Wave goodbye to dull, flat skin. Let’s bring back the bounce!
We all have those days—eight hours of sleep, water on the desk, but somehow… we still get the dreaded “you look tired” comment. 😬 That’s where plump skin comes in. It’s the key to looking fresh, healthy and youthful. And if your skin has lost a bit of bounce, don't worry—you can absolutely get it back.
Let’s dive into what plump skin is, and exactly how to get it.
What is plump skin?
Plump skin is firm, full, smooth and radiant. It’s juicy-looking cheeks, fewer visible fine lines, and light that bouncesnaturally off your skin.
But as we age (or experience things like dehydration, stress, and a busy lifestyle), collagen and moisture levels start to decline. The result? Dull, tired, flat skin.
Don’t worry, though—it’s reversible. And these tips will help get your glow back.
Your Go-To Guide for Plumper Skin
1. Stick to a Consistent Skincare Routine
Consistency is queen. A good routine doesn’t need to be 10 steps, just effective and repeated every morning and night.
Your daily BAO Plumping Routine:
- AM Cleanse with Refreshing Face Wash
- PM Double Cleanse to remove SPF + makeup
- Exfoliate 3–4x/week with Radiance Face Scrub to remove dull, dead skin
- Mist with Hydrating Face Mist to hydrate and prep skin
- Moisturise with Recovery Face Cream for hydration and bounce
- Mask with Recovery Face Mask 3x/week to supercharge moisture
- Seal it in with Restorative Beauty Oil for overnight nourishment

2. Use Ingredients That Actually Plump
Hyaluronic Acid
The ultimate hydration hero. HA can hold up to 1000x its weight in water and helps skin appear smoother, bouncier and more refreshed.
Find it in: Hydrating Face Mist, Recovery Face Cream, Recovery Face Mask
Vitamin C
Your glow-getter! Vitamin C brightens dull skin, boosts collagen, evens skin tone, and protects from free radicals. Think of it as a glow boost in a bottle.
Gentle Exfoliants
Removing dead skin cells gives your skin a clearer, smoother surface—instantly helping it look fresher.
Try: Radiance Face Scrub – gentle jojoba grains + shea butter = exfoliation without irritation.
3. Prioritise Sleep (Seriously)
Lack of sleep slows down your skin’s repair process, leading to tired, lacklustre skin. A good night’s sleep = time for collagen production, cell renewal, and deep hydration.
Pro tip: Use Restorative Beauty Oil before bed – the calming scent of lavender helps you drift off and your skin wakes up softer and smoother.
4. Hydrate From the Inside Out
Drink your 6–8 glasses of water a day (or more if you're on the go). Dehydrated skin = fine lines, shadows, and dullness. Also, eat plenty of:
- Omega-rich foods (nuts, seeds, oily fish)
- Bright fruits + veg (think rainbow, not beige)
- Anti-inflammatory foods (avocados, turmeric, berries)
5. Don’t Skip the SPF
Sun exposure is the fastest route to collagen breakdown, sagging and wrinkles.
Your SPF checklist:
- Use SPF 30 or higher
- Apply as the last step in your morning routine
- Reapply throughout the day if you're outdoors
- Choose mineral-based SPF for sensitive skin
