Skincare Guide

  • Cleansing: Start with a gentle cleanser suitable for your skin type to remove dirt, oil, and impurities.
  • Exfoliation: Use a gentle exfoliator 1-2 times a week to slough off dead skin cells and promote cell turnover.
  • Moisturizing: Hydrate your skin with a lightweight, non-comedogenic moisturizer to maintain the skin's barrier function and prevent dryness.
  • Sun Protection: Protect your skin from harmful UV rays by wearing sunscreen daily, even on cloudy days - use SPF30+ minimum, we recommend SPF50+.
  • Healthy Lifestyle Habits: Maintain a healthy lifestyle to support your skin's natural beauty through hydration, a balanced diet, regular exercise, stress management, and adequate sleep.

By incorporating these practices into your routine, you can achieve and maintain healthy, glowing skin without relying solely on beauty products.

It's important to remember expensive products and most niche ingredients will not benefit your skin, no matter how 'natural' or trendy. What truly helps, and backed by science?

  1. Hydration skin comes from the inside. Drink clean, pure water! 
  2. Cleaning dirt and sweat away with gentle cleansers with warm water
  3. Moisturisation, which despite the name, does not add moisture or hydration to your skin, but protects it from becoming dried out through evaporation. The simpler the ingredients, likely the better - buy cheap sorbolene and your skin will be happier!

    Remember to listen to your skin's needs and adjust your routine accordingly. Did you know playtime can benefit your skin? Read how you can maintain your skin's glow
