Life changes. And so does our skin. Sometimes life puts us in a high stress zone and suddenly we’re dealing with breakouts and let’s be honest, at some point we all come to a place when we feel we need to step up our anti-aging efforts. So let’s show you how to tailor your skincare routine to keep your skin looking its absolute best!
Dealing With Breakouts
Breakouts are a definite plea for help from your skin. You might be under more stress than usual, you might not be getting enough sleep, your skin might be dehydrated, or your products might not be working for you anymore.
If you’re using a harsh cleanser, it’s probably stripping your skin of its natural moisture. Switch it out for a gentle cleanser that will thoroughly dissolve dirt and excess oils while maintaining your skin’s natural barrier.
Before you moisturise, bring in an acne treatment to reduce acne and blemishes. If you feel like this might be a bit harsh on your skin, you could use a spot treatment instead. That way, you can target problem areas without drying out the rest of your skin.
And check the ingredients in your moisturiser! If it’s packed with oils, it might be the culprit for your breakouts. You want to keep your skin hydrated without making it oily or clogging your pores. So look for a moisturiser with soothing properties and humectants like hyaluronic acid and glycerin.
Taking Charge of Aging
While we all age differently, they actually say you can start introducing an anti-aging regime as early as in your 20s. I mean, the idea is prevention, right?
The good news is that if you’re applying your sunscreen every day, you’re already in the game! A broad spectrum, high SPF sunscreen is one of the most effective anti-aging products in your arsenal.
The other powerhouse in your arsenal is your moisturiser. The older our skin, the dryer it becomes. So keep checking in and take notice when your skin starts calling for a more intensely hydrating moisturiser. You want something that’s deeply nourishing but won’t block your pores.
You can also start introducing a treatment that addresses your biggest skincare worry. Is it fine lines and wrinkles, or is it hyperpigmentation? Introducing too many new products at once can stress and irritate your skin, so start slowly and choose with care.
Soothing Sensitive Skin
Stress and intense emotions can take its toll on your skin. Hormonal fluctuations, changes in weather, and allergies can also trigger sensitive skin.
While it’s vital to make sure that you choose a gentle foaming cleanser, it’s also a good idea to look for something with the added benefit of reducing inflammation. You want to soothe your skin with every step.
Choose a daytime moisturiser that’s not only soothing, but that also protects your skin from environmental aggressors and helps to support your natural skin barrier throughout the day. Moisturisers containing vitamin E, moisturising emollients, and a high SPF with UVA and UVB filters are an excellent choice.
And as for your nighttime moisturiser, look for something that will help to restore and strengthen your skin barrier while protecting it from environmental pollutants. For this we like perfume free night creams that are rich in nourishing oils.
