We get it, not everybody has an abundance of time for a fully dramatic daily skincare ritual. However, you can get good looking skin without too much hassle.  Here’s some quick tips for what you should be doing to care for your skin on a daily basis.

Step 1: Wash your face (AM and PM)! Cleansing is the most basic and important part of skincare, however many people skip this step because they are too tired or too lazy. Work in a morning and evening cleanse so you can start with a fresh, clean slate!

**Tip: if you shower every morning when you wake up, or every evening before going to bed, put your cleanser in your shower!

Step 2: Exfoliate (AM or PM not both!). Depending on your skin, you probably won’t exfoliate everyday. However, exfoliating is a great way to slough off the dead surface skin cells and exfoliation leads to a clearer, smoother and more radiant complexion.

**Tip: we recommend exfoliating with either a chemical exfoliant or mechanical exfoliant 2-4 times per week. Check with your skin care therapist for the best exfoliant for your skin type.

Step 3: Moisturize/Protect (AM and PM). Lastly, it’s important to follow your exfoliation with a mosturizer and SPF before going about your daily activities. Depending on your skin type, in the evening, you might want to try a moisturizer that is richer and targeted for night-time use to help protect and treat your skin through the night.

**Tip: look for an SPF with UVA and UVB (broad spectrum) protection with an SPF of at least 30 for your face. Use daily regardless of the weather outside.

These steps are easy, take about 4 minutes max, and can be done before getting your day started and before tucking yourself into bed . For those of you that can handle more ‘complicated’ and ‘extensive’ skincare routines, i’d highly suggest a few serum treatments (Vitamin C for example) to help protect and heal your skin throughout the day and night.

The more you actually do stay on your skincare routine, the better results you’ll see in your skin! Talk to your skincare therapist for recommendations on the best products and ingredients for your skin.
