The Best Starter Skincare Routine

You may have heard of 12 step skincare routines, or trends like ‘skin cycling’ (switching products through the week), but often when it comes to your skin the best solution is the simplest one...

AM

1. Cleanse – start the day feeling fresh. This will remove any dirt and excess sebum that builds up overnight.

2. Moisturise – to help hydrate and rebalance skin, as well as strengthen the skin barrier.

Tip: For blemish-prone or oily skin, try a lightweight formula. For dryer skin types, go for a richer formula to prevent dryness through the day. 

3. SPF – your final skincare step before makeup to prevent sun damage. Don’t skip it!

PM

  1. Cleanse – or even better, a double cleanse! The first time removes SPF, makeup and any dirt or excess sebum that’s built up on the skin. The second restores and freshens and provides a deep clean. 
  2. Moisturise – a nourishing formula is a great option before bed, to give the skin a soothing and hydrating extra layer before you hit snooze.
