Why this worksAs the weather warms up, your skin needs hydration and nourishment to combat the effects of sun exposure and changing humidity. A consistent evening routine helps to repair and rejuvenate your skin overnight, allowing it to thrive in the spring months. By focusing on gentle, hydrating ingredients, you can maintain your skin's balance.

The ritual, step by step

  1. Cleanse Your Face Begin by using a gentle cleanser to remove makeup, dirt, and impurities from your skin. Massage the cleanser into damp skin for about 30 seconds before rinsing thoroughly with lukewarm water.
  2. Apply Toner After cleansing, apply a hydrating toner to help restore your skin's pH balance. Use a cotton pad or your hands to apply it evenly across your face and neck, patting gently to enhance absorption.
  3. Moisturise Well Choose a lightweight moisturiser that hydrates without feeling heavy. Apply it evenly over your face and neck, using upward strokes to boost circulation and help the product absorb better.
  4. Incorporate Active Ingredients If your skin tolerates it, consider adding a targeted treatment, such as a serum with antioxidants or hydrating ingredients. Apply a small amount to your face and neck, focusing on areas that need extra care.

Where people go wrong

Many people skip cleansing or use harsh products that strip moisture. Others forget to apply toner or use too much moisturiser, leading to clogged pores. It's important to let each product absorb before layering on the next.

The pro moveConsider using a silk pillowcase to help maintain your skin's moisture levels while you sleep.
