Not a morning person? Struggle sticking to routines? We get it. Those extra few minutes ‘snoozing’ your alarm are precious in the AM. Or maybe you’re a morning bird but just busy.
Either way, you’ll probably enjoy a minimalist skincare regime. This article uncovered how many products ladies of today are applying to their skin. Can you guess?
It’s 16. Yes, you read right. 16. From the cleanser, toner and moisturiser through to makeup, our skin is exposed to a lot of different products.
Following a minimalist approach, you can not only save time but also money. What’s important to understand first is that minimalism doesn’t mean you’re compromising anything. You’re simply picking the items you really need.
A minimalist approach to skincare is advantageous because you’re more likely to stick to the regime. And good skin is a result of the actions you take every day.
Choose a handful of key products
Are there specific products that you can’t go without? What about the ones you use just for that extra touch?
When it comes to skincare, it’s quality over quantity. Aim to get your three-part cleansing, toning and moisturising system right. This will be the foundation for good skin. The better condition your skin is in, the less you’ll need (or want) to rely on other products to cover up blemishes, spots or issues.
Look at the ingredients list and make sure you know what you’re putting on your skin. Products made with natural ingredients will support your skin. With your cleanser, if the product is good quality, you won’t need much. Pour a tiny bit on your palm, wash your face and follow it up with a couple of spritzes of toner. This will neutralise your skin’s pH before applying moisturiser. This gentle, daily ‘toning session’ prepares your skin for glowy heaven.
When looking at your skincare from a minimalist perspective, think of products like food. Choose the solutions that feed your skin essential nutrients. You can get everything in the one system with Neora’s products – cleansing, tightening, moisture, antioxidants, minerals and vitamins. Get to know your skin type and what works for you.
Make sure you keep sunscreen stocked in your bathroom. If you’ve got ten makeup brushes, ask yourself, do you really need them all? It’s time for a bathroom spring clean. What products will make the cut?
