6 Best Skincare Tips

6 Best Skincare Tips

Tip 1

Brands are not Good or Bad, Product’s are Good or Bad.

  • Learn your ingredients or seek advice from a trained professional
  • One good product doesn’t mean the entire brand is good

 

Tip 2

Don’t Neglect your Neck, Ensure your neck is protected.

If you neglect your neck, your face will look 20 years and your neck will look 50 years. The neck is a little more sensitive but most face products can be used on the neck. This means if you’re new to skincare or have a limited budget you don’t need to buy any special product for your neck.

 

Tip 3

SUNSCREEN, SUNSCREEN, SUNSCREEN : Sunscreen is like insurance for your skin.

When you do not wear sunscreen it is like erasing all the effects of product treatment. To stress this point its like throwing all your skincare money in the garbage. 

PROTIP - The best Sunscreen is the one that you will wear every day.

Your sunscreen should meet these basis requirements:

  • SPF 30 or more
  • Broad spectrum UV coverage
  • water resistente if you interact with water 

Ideally, sunscreen should be reapplied every 2 hours. This is often difficult to adhere to especially when we are busy. So, aim for at least twice daily or more often if you can fit it into your day.

PROTIP - Sunscreen is one of the best ways to decrease or not develop hyperpigmentation.

 

Tip 4

Leave your Pimples alone

  • Don’t touch, squeeze or pop it
  • Doing the above can cause inflammation and scarring (permanent marks)
  • Use a spot treatment 

To make things a little clearer; when a pimple is red and inflamed it usually has some bacteria (germs) contained within the follicle (pore) and when it is popped this bacteria can now swim around in surrounding tissues. This damages a bigger portion of your skin.

 

Tip 5

Be Patient

 The results you want isn’t going to happen overnight, skincare takes time to work. Scientifically, skin cells take weeks to change (turnover), therefore only expect to start seeing results in about 8 weeks.

PROTIP- Take a Photo at the start then 2 months later take another photo and compare.

 

Tip 6

Let your skincare age with you
