Commit to these skin care resolutions now so you can enjoy the benefits all year long.
Clean Out Your Skin Care Collection
Skin care products sadly, do not last Every six months, take the time to clear out your stockpile of skin care products. Keep the products you love, pass on the ones you don’t, check expiration dates, and toss anything that’s too old.
Moisturise Morning & Night
Moisturising your skin encourages healthy cell turnover, helps fight the signs of aging, rehydrates and plumps the skin, and restores the moisture you lose throughout the day—all of which play an essential part in ensuring your skin looks its best. Apply moisturiser every morning and night to keep skin hydrated.
Pamper Your Lips
Don’t neglect your lips! Dry lips can lead to cracking, bleeding, chapping, and other damage. Use moisturising lip products regularly to protect and hydrate the skin of your lips, especially during the cold and wintry months.
Wash Your Makeup Brushes
Washing your makeup brushes not only helps them last longer but also gets rid of harmful bacteria. Commit to washing your brushes with water and a drop of gentle shampoo every week to keep them clean.
Wear Skin-Healthy Makeup
Skin care products and makeup you use should work together to keep your skin balanced and nourished. Aim to use skin-healthy makeup that won’t irritate your skin or clog your pores to achieve a healthier complexion in the new year.
Take Off Your Makeup At Night
Leaving your makeup on overnight can clog your pores, lead to blackheads and acne, accelerate signs of aging, and cause other skin problems. If you wear makeup during the day, take the time to wash your face before climbing into bed that night.
Use A Face Mask Once A Week
Face Masks are a great addition to your skin care routine and come in a variety, designed to address specific skin care issues. Use a face mask one to three times a week after cleansing to repair damaged skin and achieve a smoother complexion.
Wear Sunscreen Every Single Day
Let’s make this the year that you apply sunscreen to your face and neck every single day—no matter the weather or season. Additionally, cover all other exposed skin before heading outside, including the backs of your hands and your forearms. Aim for products with an SPF of at least 30 to 50, and follow the directions to ensure you get full protection.
Start An Anti-Aging Skin Care Routine
It’s never too late to start an anti-aging skin care routine that helps minimise the signs of aging. By incorporating anti-aging products into your existing skin care routine, you can prevent fine lines and wrinkles and maintain a plump, youthful appearance.
Be Consistent
When it comes to skin care, consistency is key. To experience the benefits of most skin care routines, you must give them time to work. It can take weeks for you to notice changes caused by some skin care products. This New Year, make a resolution to create a skin care routine that you can follow consistently.
