It’s always good to share… and that’s why I thought it’s a great time to share my current morning skin care routine.
The combination of cold weather and indoor heating can be harsh on the skin so to keep my skin looking bouncy and fresh I’ve a greater focus on hydration products.
Dry and dehydrated skin highlights imperfections such as lines and wrinkles, especially on those of us at a certain age.
Here is each product I use in order:
Cleansing oil – I don’t always double cleanse in the morning but when I do my skin is always appreciative of this little number. Just massage into your skin for a good 30-60 seconds then rinse off.
Cleansing Balm – I’ve wanted to try a purse-friendly balm for a while and chose this one from Boots. You only need a small amount to rub into your skin. This balm feels very nice on but my favourite is still one from Elemis. I like to use my Clarisonic Mia 2 cleansing brush as I feel it wakes up my skin.
Daily AHA Serum – I like to use it every other day but it can be used daily. It’s a powerful formula that will resurface and exfoliate resulting in a brighter complexion. This step is recommended if you want to achieve a look that glows.
Hyaluron Skin Essence – This is a step I have added over the past 6 months and now would not go without. It’s incredibly hydrating and your skin will drink it up.
Vitamin C Serum – I use a Vitamin C Serum religiously and I am currently trialling this one from Beauty Pie.
Triple Hyaluronic Acid Serum – Love this! Don’t be stingy with this product and your skin will love you for it.
Moisturiser – This step will lock everything in to help keep your skin looking lush and youthful looking all day.
Sunblock – Every smart woman needs to apply sunscreen as this step will help keep aging at bay.
If you’re thinking I haven’t got time for all these steps, trust me you have. Usually, I multi-task when I’m applying my skincare in the morning and I normally have made a cup coffee, dragged my boys out of bed and given them breakfast in-between applying them.
Everyone can have gorgeous looking skin if you’re willing to put the effort in!!
