Everyone from your grandmother to your dermatologist will tell you that a good skin care routine is the answer to healthy skin. If you’re a skin care rookie, don’t worry! We’ve got you covered with these 5 must-have products.
Moisturiser
Dryness immediately makes skin seem duller and older than it is. Luckily, the solution is oh-so very simple. Adding a high quality moisturiser to your daily routine will ensure your skin stays hydrated and soft.
The serum
Serums are oil or water based products with a high concentration of nutrients, vitamins and minerals that on application will penetrate the layers of your skin to give it the nourishing care it deserves. A dime-sized dollop of a good facial serum on clean skin is all it takes.
Screen the sun
One of the biggest causes of skin problems is sun damage. Many people forget to protect their skin from harmful sun rays which apart from sunburn can cause dry skin, discoloration, fine lines and wrinkles. Investing in a good broad spectrum sunscreen is really important. Ensure that sunscreen remains the last layer of product on your face to increase effectiveness.
The exfoliator
Exfoliation helps improve circulation and deep cleaning your pores. It is important to exfoliate at least 2-3 times a week for clean and healthy skin. Options for facial exfoliation range from scrubs to facial cleansing brushes. Consult your dermatologist or aesthetician about the best exfoliator for your skin type.
The mask
Face masks are a quick way to rejuvenate your skin. The best part about these masks is the variety available (both sheet and cream masks) which can give you multiple beauty benefits in one application. Be it cleansing, clarifying or moisturising, there is definitely a mask out there for you!
