3 Basic Skincare Tips

Cleanse

Cleansing is always the first step in a skincare routine. I use a cleanser and an exfoliating cleansing brush every morning and just a cleanser at nighttime. This keeps my skin clean, clear, and healthy looking. Cleansing properly is really important as it creates a clean foundation for the rest of the skincare products, and it also ensures the skin can soak in all the goodness from the products you are using.

Tone

Toning is the next step in the skincare routine and is another important step that is so easy to skip. A good toner removes all dead skin cells and any trace of dirt or excess oil. If you are looking to improve your skin, implementing a toner into your skincare routine is one of the fastest ways to get the job done.

Moisturise

To ensure your skin stays hydrated, soft, and supple, you should moisturise with a good serum and moisturiser for nighttime, and moisturiser and sunscreen for day time. This step can be the trickiest in the skincare routine because there are loads of options to choose from, and too many options can easily become overwhelming. The best way to go around this issue is to go for serums and moisturisers that suit your skin type. Also, observe how your skin responds, that way you know which skincare products are working well on your skin.

Lifestyle tips for Glowing Skin

February 26, 2024 By in Beauty Tags: , , , , , , , , 1 Comment

Finding the right skincare can feel like a game in a way. As we age, our skin changes, and skincare products that used to work so well may no longer be the right fit. To find the  right skincare products, you may have to test a good few. I have played around with a few skincare brands in the last few years. Some have been a better fit than others but what I noticed with my skin was, at first the new skincare products would work amazingly well, at least for the first couple of weeks, and then they would stop being as effective.

When it comes to lifestyle changes to make for glowing skin, I have had to learn when it comes to skincare, and I am still learning, but I have been able to pick up some up great lifestyle tips for glowing skin in my quest. Here are three of my favourite skincare tips –

Use a gentle facial cleanser twice a day

Washing your face twice a day with a gentle facial cleanser is the first step in any skincare routine. You want to pick the right facial cleanser for your skin type so it doesn’t dry out your face or cause any breakouts. I have used a few cleansers and I have found that the more gentle the facial cleanser, the better it is for my skin. Vegan formulas are the only skincare products I use, so the gentle facial cleanser has to be Vegan friendly for me to try it.

Exfoliate at least once a week

When it comes to exfoliating, I usually aim for once a week. I know many beauty pros recommend exfoliating three times or more a week, but that sounds like a lot. My skin is quite sensitive and can be prone to breakouts sometimes, so I am always really careful with skincare treatments. Exfoliating more than once may be right for your skin but just be careful not to over exfoliate so as not to damage your natural skin barrier.

Use a toner twice a day

Using a toner every time you cleanse is important. Toners keep the skin hydrated and also aid the absorption of facial creams, moisturisers and serums. As always, I opt for toners with Vegan formula. I have recently discovered some amazing Vegan skncare products, and I will be sharing my thoughts on them soon.

Do you have any Vegan skincare brands you are into?

Beauty Muse: Gizelle Bryant

April 5, 2023 By in Beauty Tags: , , , , , , 3 Comments

The lovely Gizelle Bryant is the Beauty Muse for the month. For those who do not recognise the name or the face, Gizelle Bryant is one of the housewives on The Housewives of Potomac. I have been watching the series for many years now and I am a huge fan. The ladies are quite entertaining, and this Beauty Muse is one of the original cast members. You can easily catch her and her onscreen BFF – Robyn Dixon up to mischief. To watch all the seasons, play catch up on Amazon Prime.

Back to this Beauty Muse; Bryant has a smooth and flawless skin, and she always looks beautiful. I have always admired her stunning features, and so I did some digging and I found out a bit about her skincare routine and makeup tips.

Beauty Muse: Gizelle Bryant

Gizelle Bryant’s main steps to her daily routine include using SPF, a gentle cleanser, and a mosituriser. I was super shocked to discover this beauty muse has a very simple skincare routine, and uses drugstore skincare products. Her natural glow is so easy to maintain and it just confirms that you don’t have to spend an awful lot of money on skincare products to glow.

Once you have the right products for each step of your skincare routine, and you apply all the products correctly, the rest of the work is usually done from the lifestyle choices. So having a balanced diet, getting the right amount of sleep, drinking the recommended amounts of water, and having a stress-free lifestyle is a great way to keep your skin healthy.
