We know we can’t all be like Kimmy Schmidt and live in a bunker without sun damage but you can always load up on sunscreen to keep your skin free of sun damage.
Get sunscreen with at least SPF50 and UVA AND UVB protection. Remember also to reapply sunscreen after being out in the sun.
If you’re on the Korean 11-step beauty program that includes everything from toner to essence and serum, start your skincare routine from the product that has the thinnest viscosity and work your way up.
This ensures the best and highest absorption rate.
Sometimes, makeup wipes just don’t cut it for every day cleansing. instead, remove your makeup effectively by double cleansing.
Start with an oil cleanser to gently get rid of oil-based makeup then proceed to use a water-based cleanser to get rid of any makeup residue.
Great diet begets great skin. Often times when you’re getting an allergic reaction to something, your skin is the first to show signs.
Your skin regenerates and repairs itself best at night so make sure you’re getting enough sleep so your skin has time to recover and look its best.
Exfoliating — even if you have sensitive skin — is extremely important so that you slough away all the dead skin cells that could build up and lower the absorption rate of skin.
Over time, your skin loses its ability to maintain its own natural moisture so make it a point to stay away from over washing your skin and drying it out even further. Stay away from products with alcohol too.
Which brings us to our next point…
A good moisturiser helps to provide lipids and moisture to parched skin so be sure to invest in a good one that’s suitable for your skin.
Whatever you use on your face, use it on your neck too! Your neck is one of the first places to show signs of aging even if your face doesn’t so it’s important to keep that looking its best.
When cleansing your face, take some time to massage it a little to improve its lymphatic drainage capabilities and increase the circulation of blood flow on your skin.
