HOW TO PERFECT YOUR SKINCARE ROUTINE

The right skincare routine will keep your skin looking fresh, clear and youthful. We’ll guide you on how to choose the right products for your skin type. And we’ll also share our a couple of our favorite skincare routines.

1. Cleanse
It goes without saying that the right cleanser is the foundation of a good cleansing routine. Explore our cleansers to find the best cleanser for your skin, whether it’s an oil, balm, milk, cream or gel. After cleansing, you might follow by applying a toner. Toner is a balancing solution that helps remove dirt, excess oil and any residual product. Most importantly it should never dry or strip the skin but balance the skin’s pH level. A lotion might work as a toner, as might an active product, but you’ll most often find this is a water-based calming solution, essence or mist.

2. Moisturise
If you’re new to skincare, start with the basics: cleansing and moisturising. These are the first steps towards healthy skin. Most people will find its essential to use a moisturiser every day to maintain skin plumpness and softness. Maintaining the skin’s moisture levels with a high quality moisturiser can minimise the appearance of fine lines, actually improve blemish-prone skin and enable a more seamless makeup application. We have an amazing collection of moisturisers for all skin types. Whether it’s a lightweight lotion, rich cream and emollient balm, we can find the right moisturiser for your skin type.

3. Exfoliate
Exfoliation is often seen as an essential within a skincare routine, but we always recommend a gently gently approach. Whether you exfoliate once a week, or more regularly will depend on your skin type and it’s current condition. You might suit an alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) product, that works by removing dead cells, revealing new ones, and encouraging cell turnover, or an enzymatic exfoliation that is often based on fruit enzymes. Perhaps the physical exfoliation of removing your cleanser with the right textile cloth is enough for you if the skin is particularly sensitive. Key to exfoliation, is following with the right protection.

4. Protect
The perfect skincare routine should always include protection. We advocate for protect your skin with sunscreen every day then you’re exposed to UV rays. Our collection includes the best natural sunscreens and also Australian made broad spectrum 50+ sunscreens.
