Skincare in your 20s

If you have not already started to look after your skin, the "20s" is the time to start. Prevention is key here. I can comfortably say this as I am 49-years-old and wish I had of taken on a little bit more skin advice. Luckily I have been in this industry for a very long time, but the one thing I wish I had been more serious about is Sun Protection.

I can not stress enough the damaging effect the sun can have on your skin. The consequences are premature ageing which includes lines, wrinkles, pigmentation, skin cancer, open pores and uneven skin tone and texture.

These are all very hard to reverse and could have been so easily prevented with one simple product, SUNSCREEN!

So now we've had the "SUN" talk, I can go on to explain how easy it is to take care of your skin and save you from so many problems down the track.

It does not have to be complicated at this point. Using the correct products that are prescribed for you is essential. What your friend uses is not necessarily going to be suited to you. Have your skin analysed to make sure you have ingredients that will work with your skin type or concern.

Cleanse: This is the first step not to be missed. Keeping the skin free from pollution, dirt and grime will have you well on the way to better-looking skin.

Exfoliate: Getting rid of the dead cell build-up will allow the pores to breathe, preventing breakouts. It also keeps the skin looking smooth and bright. It will also enable other products to do their job better as there is no dead skin standing in the way.

Serums: If you have a particular skin concern, you can add a serum into your skincare routine. Serums are the "correctors" among your skincare products. They contain a high percentage of ingredients to help treat various skin problems.

Moisturise: It is essential to hydrate all skin types (yes, including oily skin!). Moisturising keeps the skin barrier balanced and functioning efficiently. The skin barrier is responsible for protecting the skin cells from external damages, so don't skip Moisturising!

SPF: Wear SPF every single day!!! Nothing more to say.

A light, soap-free gel cleanser formulated to be safe for even the most sensitive skins.
