How To Know If Your Skincare Is Actually Working

It's easy to spot all the signs when our skincare isn't working. Breakouts, rashes, and irritation to name a few. But knowing if our skincare is actually working is where things start to get blurry. We speak with Dr Gladys Teo, Head of R&D for Heure and ést.lab, to learn about the signs to look for.

How long it takes for you to see visible effects on your skin depends largely on ingredient dosage, type of ingredient and formulation, and how your skin responds to these factors. As Dr Teo shares, "As each person has a very unique skin condition, the results vary even when using the same skincare. However, in general, a skincare product that works well for you would affect a positive and noticeable change on your skin with ongoing and consistent use."
