The Importance of Staying Consistent With Your Skin Care Routine

With our busy lifestyles of today it can be challenging to stick to a Skin Care Routine, but the benefits of following these few simple basics, will far outweigh the effort. Do not forego these important steps in lieu of a few extra minutes of snooze time in the morning. The time you take now will more than pay off in terms of your skin quality in the future.

Following these easy, basic steps will win you the reward of healthier, younger-looking skin.

Cleanse to Support Healthy Skin

It is important to clean your face every morning with a high quality natural cleanser. This helps remove dirt, oil, and impurities that your skin has accumulated from your hair and pillowcase while you’re sleeping.

Apply Toner for Balanced Skin Health

Some skip this step because they are not aware of the benefit to the skin that toner offers, or because they worry that the toner may be harsh on their skin. Today’s toners are formulated to deliver moisture, adjust the PH level of our skin, and contain anti-aging properties as well.

Moisturize to Maintain Skin Hydration

If your skin is dehydrated it will produce more unneeded oil, which can create a whole host of new skin issues. Maintaining proper skin balance and hydration are key to healthy skin. Also important to consider are environmental and aging actors. You may consider switching the type of moisturizer you use based on seasonal weather, or based on individual changes to your skin type due to natural aging, etc.

Use High Quality Daily Sunscreen

Apply at least 15 minutes before leaving the house in the morning. Time saving tips include using a moisturizer that includes sun protection with a minimum SPF of 20. For very best results, consider physical sunscreen over chemical sunscreen.

Cleanse Again to Remove Daily Impurities

Finish off your day with another cleaning of your face before you end your day. It is important to remove all of the accumulated debris of the day and the makeup you have applied. Always use a high quality natural cleanser and for extra exfoliation, use a washcloth or spin brush. We suggest cleansing for a minimum of 60 seconds.

Moisturize Again to Support Overnight Repair

Your skin heals and repairs itself while you sleep, so give it the best chance to do so by applying the extra moisture your skin craves.
