Skincare Routine for Busy Mums
We at Pores X believe that incorporating a good skincare routine into your daily life should not be complicated. The key here is consistency – you have to make your skincare routine a habit. Ideally, we would like to have one routine in the morning and one at night.
Cleanse
The first step is cleansing because we need to ensure the skin is clean before we apply any products. Massage the cleanser into your skin with circular motions, then rinse with lukewarm water.
We recommend H40 Oxygen Aqua Remove & Cleanse. It dissolves skin products, makeup, sunscreen, and excessive oil which is perfect for preparing your skin to absorb products that you will apply later. It is also safe to use on the most sensitive of skins.
The H40 Oxygen Aqua Remove & Cleanse is available exclusively for purchase at our store.
Serums
The next step is to apply is a serum which penetrates deeply into the skin to provide targeted benefits. Look for a serums that addresses your specific skincare concern such as wrinkles, fine lines, or dry skin. If you are unsure of your skin concern, you can visit our store in Macquarie Centre and one of our skin specialists can help you.
Here’s a good article published by Harvard Health that mentions the pros of using a good serum for skin health.
Eye Cream
No one wants to look tired and have dark circles under their eyes. At the same time, the skin around our eyes is delicate and would require special attention.
We recommend ACE++ Eye Cream to re-energise the eyes and reduce dark circles. This contains Vitamin A derivatives that smoothens the skin around the eyes, reducing static wrinkle appearance.
Sunscreen
During the morning, even if you will stay indoors, it is recommended that you still apply sunscreen as it can help in maintaining a youthful appearance.
Did you know that the sun produces UV rays? When your skin is exposed to it can lead to premature skin ageing which leads to wrinkles and loss of elasticity. We currently don’t have sunscreen in our product line but we will be launching one soon! When you choose a sunscreen, make sure to get one with at least SPF 30 or more.
In addition to this basic routine, there are a few extra steps you can take for some extra TLC for your skin. You may want to exfoliate twice a week to remove dead skin cells and promote cell turnover.
We recommend High-Definition Hydro Exfoliating Micro Clarifier. It is a gentle exfoliator that is made of water molecules to gently remove dead skin.
Incorporating a good skincare routine does not have to be complicated or expensive. It’s about finding what works for you and sticking to it.
