Learn how to stay cool this holiday season in this post sponsored by LISTERINE® and Socialstars. #LISTERINE #BringOutTheBold

The holiday season does one of two things to folks. It either makes them go crazy, running around like a chicken with their heads cut off as they try to make every party, purchase every present, and reach every goal they set for the year before it’s all over. Other people? Oh, they thrive during this time of the year! The twinkling lights and crowds fuel their energy and they are totally in their element.

I’d say that I’m a mix of the two. I typically hate crowds, but I can deal with them now.

I might wait until the last minute to get presents, but everyone will get something.

The holiday season to me is time to relax and recharge after a long year. You know what Christmas music and lights do to me? They fuel my chill. Yup, I’m at my most cool in December.

Here’s the thing…you just have to keep things simple! Instead of banging your head up against the wall trying to figure out what everyone wants, just ask them. Pick one or two party dresses that you can accessorize with different shoes or jewelry to switch up and you don’t have to worry about what to wear to a holiday event. Going to a potluck? Pick up a platter from the grocery store.

JUST CHILL, Y’ALL.

Another easy way to stay cool during the holiday season is to incorporate COOL MINT® LISTERINE® Antiseptic Mouthwash into your dental hygiene routine. When you use it, you’ll feel a bold tingle that lets you know it’s reducing 52% more plaque  and 21% gingivitis than brushing and flossing alone. Not only that, but you’ll get 24-hour protection, so you can go out and have a festive time without worrying about your teeth!
