5 Skincare Secrets

Double Cleanse at Night
I started double cleansing once a day, at night and it transformed my skin beautifully. Double cleansing helps remove dirt, makeup, oil, skincare products, dead skin and all. This process leaves the skin clean, clear and healthy. I recommend double cleansing with an oil based cleanser first, followed by a water based cleanser, for the best results.

Invest in the Right Skincare Products
Investing in the right skincare products can’t be overemphasised. It does take a lot of trial and error before you find the right products for your skin, but it is worth the investment. I do a lot of trial and error with skincare products, and I always do a patch test 24 hours before using a new product to ensure it is right for me. Also, I pay a lot of attention to product reviews, description, and ingredients before using any product to make sure the product is what I need.

Clean Diet
Maintaining a clean diet will do wonders for the skin. I became a vegetarian a few years ago, and my skin still thanks me for it. If you are looking to really transform your look and overall health, ensure you maintain a healthy diet that is right for you.

Use Sunscreen Everyday
A popular skincare tip is to use sunscreen everyday even in the autumn/winter months. You should also apply sun protection at least once a day, even when you are indoors, regardless of your skin type. Sun protection is a must for everyone, so never skip this step in your skincare routine.

Be Gentle with your Skin
Apply skincare products with your fingers with gentleness. Daily cleansing and shaving can take its toll on the skin. Which is why being gentle is a must for skincare. Opt for gentle products that do not sting after application and ensure you test any new product at least 24 hours before application.
