Skincare Simplified
While the products used on your face are important,
consistency is key!
Cleanser - Cleansing the skin is important to remove debris on the skin. This includes oil, dead skin, dirt, pollution, makeup, etc. It is recommended that you double cleanse your skin, especially if you wear makeup.
Serums - Serums are used to target skin concerns. See "Common Ingredients" list below to find ingredient targeting specific skin concerns.
Moisturizer - Moisturizer locks in the applied serums and gives a hydrated finish to your skin.
SPF - Arguably the most important skincare ingredient. SPF protects your skin against the sun, reducing the chance of skin cancers and photodamage. SPF DAILY IS A MUST!
Salicylic Acid - chemical exfoliant used to treat acne
Alpha Hydroxy Acids - chemical exfoliants used to treat photodamage and hyperpigmentation
Vitamin C - contains skin-lightening and anti-oxidant properties
Retinol - skin revitalizer used to reduce and prevent fine lines and wrinkles
