A 3-step routine is enough to see results. Here’s how to do it without wasting money.
Starting a skincare routine doesn’t have to be complicated. A simple, consistent approach can help you maintain healthy-looking skin over time. Here’s an easy guide to building your daily routine.
1. Cleanser
Use a gentle gel or cream cleanser to remove oil and refresh your skin. Cleanse for about 30–60 seconds.
2. Treatment
Apply a lightweight serum such as vitamin C or niacinamide to support a brighter and more even-looking complexion.
3. Sun Protection
Use a broad-spectrum sunscreen (SPF 30 or higher) every day, even when it’s cloudy.
1. Cleanser
Cleanse your skin to remove dirt, oil, and sunscreen. If you wear makeup or heavier products, consider double cleansing.
2. Treatment
You can include products like retinol (2–3 times per week) or mild exfoliating acids (once per week), depending on your routine.
3. Moisturiser
Apply a moisturiser to help maintain hydration overnight.
4. (Optional) Eye Cream
Use if you experience dryness or want extra care around the eye area.
