Beauty Routine Tips

These 8 beauty routine tips will have your skin looking its absolute best!


1. Use the correct cleanser for your skin type

Sounds simple but choosing the right cleanser can help make a visible difference to your overall skin health.

2. Don’t use too many products.

It just gets confusing and one product can dilute another. Ask us to detail the right skincare program for your skin. Getting your program right from the start saves you money on wasted products too!



3. Hydrate/Moisturise both day and night

Yes you need to do both!

Moisturisers are oil-based ingredients, including occlusive agents, such as petrolatum or mineral oil, and emollients like esters and plant oils. They work by creating a seal on the surface of skin which prevents water from escaping. They also make the skin feel smoother and less dry.

Hydrators are ingredients called humectants, such as glycerin or hyaluronic acid, that absorb water from the atmosphere or your skin and hold it in place on your skin.


4. Don’t touch your face

It's true you spread more germs with your hands so think about that every time you go to put your hands near your face. If you do touch your face “wash your hands!”


5. Drink water

It not only helps hydrate you, it cleanses your body flushing toxins and waste from your body. Up to 3 litres a day is recommended.


6. Exfoliate a couple times per week

Removing dead cells and stimulating new cell growth, a good exfoliator added into your weekly skincare regime will make all the difference.

7. Clean your makeup brushes regularly

Soapy hot water and a bit of love is all it takes to keep your tools in great working order. Do this regularly and you will thank me!


8. Wear sunscreen 365 days a year — rain or shine, indoors or outdoors

Protection is paramount. New Zealand has the worst UV rays in the world so you need to keep your skin covered to ensure it remains at it’s best. If you’re like me and don’t like the feel of most sunscreen on your face we’ve got a fabulous product that feels light and gives you the ultimate protection here
