A good routine is simple and consistent. These four steps cover what most skin needs.
Morning
- Cleanse with a gentle face wash.
- Treat with a serum suited to your concern, such as vitamin C for dullness.
- Moisturise, even if your skin is oily.
- Protect with broad-spectrum sunscreen.
Night
- Cleanse to remove sunscreen, makeup and sweat.
- Treat with prescribed or recommended actives.
- Moisturise to support your skin barrier.
Tips for success
- Introduce one new product at a time.
- Patch test before using something new.
- Give a product six to eight weeks before judging results.
- Fewer, well-chosen products beat a crowded shelf.
Your skin type, climate and concerns all matter. A dermatologist can build a routine around your skin and any treatments you are having.
