Beauty Routine Essentials

HI beautiful people! My name is Sky Bambie and I am a part of the Hubient Talents. 

Here are some beauty essentials to add into your routine today.

Before we get started, I just want to point out somethings.

Always be cautious and test products before applying them all over and consult dermatologist if unsure.
Always check ingredient in your products and before layering do your research to see if they are compatible
Everyone’s skin is different and will react differently to certain ingredients
Certain products can be used daily and others occasionally so again do your research!

Cleanser

Even if you don’t wear makeup you still need to cleanse your skin from dead skin cells, excess oil, dirt, and pollutants. No matter what your skin type is, you should wash your face at least once a day as this will help prevent clogged pores and acne.

Toner

This is a product mistakenly missed by many people in their skincare routine. As well as helping destroy any last trace of dirt left stuck in your pores after cleansing. There are many types of cleansers and finding the one right for your skin type is vital. My personal favourite is toners with hydrating properties.

Exfoliant

Don’t overdue this one- exfoliating too much can damage skin and cause micro tears, this is a step to do occasionally, and I would also recommend a sensitive chemical exfoliant rather than the physical exfoliant. Chemical exfoliants use ingredients such as salicylic and glycolic acids that help penetrate the skin better.

Serum

Serums are my life; you can never pass up a good serum. They nourish, protect, and hydrate your face while being fast absorbing with quicker visible results. They are a thinner consistency so are to be used before your moisturiser.

Moisturizer

This one I shouldn’t even have to mention, I am sure you already have this in your routine even if it’s just a one-step routine.

Sunscreen

Your parents told you to put sunscreen on as a kid for a reason. The sun can cause major damage to your skin and accelerate aging. There are a lot of sunscreens designed to be used under makeup or ones that have a matte base, so you don’t shine like the stars after applying.

Retinol

A beauty product that has been booming in popularity the past couple of years. Usually aimed at people aged 25+ this is a vitamin A derivative that increases the production of collagen and helps slow down the process of skin aging. This product is to be applied at night before bed and I would recommend starting with a lower percentage to not cause irritation as well as use sunscreen during the day after use.

Vitamin C

Vitamin c Serums and creams help promote collagen production, fine lines and helps with hyperpigmentation. They are an antioxidant that helps with protecting the skin form free radical damage cause by UV.
