- Double Cleanse
The benefit of double cleansing is that the first cleanser will break down any makeup, remove dirt and excess oils which forms blackheads and clogged pores, from the day and clean your skin. The second cleanser will address your particular skin type or concern and should have ingredients to hydrate, smooth or exfoliate and treat acne
- Eliminate blemishes and other skin discolouration’s
- Use a broad spectrum SPF, it decreases all visible signs of skin ageing. Whatever your age, the daily use of sun protection is the basis of an anti–ageing skin care routine. Check that it has an SPF of 30 or higher. This helps reduce sun damage (brown pigment spots) and red skin left by breakouts.
- Use products that inhibit melanin (pigment) production. Active Ingredients such as vitamin C, niacinamide, and retinol have been proven to be effective. Also use an AHA or BHA exfoliant daily. Results will only be seen within 6 to 12 weeks. The dull skin tone disappears to make way for a more radiant complexion and you will be less prone to breakouts. And a brightening product such as one with vitamin C and niacinamide will help fade discolouration’s and make your skin more radiant!
- Fight wrinkles with retinol
- Retinolis an effective anti-aging ingredient. It contributes to healthier cells, improves the skin’s firmness and texture and helps it function as a barrier.
Retinoids reduce fine lines and wrinkles by increasing the production of collagen. They also stimulate the production of new blood vessels in the skin, which improves skin colour. Additional benefits include fading age spots and softening rough patches of skin.
Products with retinol as an active ingredient come in various strengths. You can also alternate between a product with a high concentration of retinol and
one with a lower concentration.
What if you never used retinol before? Only introduce retinol-based cream 3 times a week. If your skin tolerates this for one or two weeks, then you can consider using your retinol cream daily.
Hydrate and Brighten your Skin
- As a powerful anti-oxidant, Vitamin C neutralizes the free radicals that cause oxidative stress to skin and lead to premature skin aging. It is also essential to the production of collagen in skin cells, helping to support skin structure and delay signs of aging.

Moisturize
- Moisturizing is an important step to maintain your skin’s healthy cells and to protect it from irritation. … When your skin is dry and irritated, it actually causes breakouts and acne. By moisturizing your skin, you can reduce your chances of any skin problems arising
