At the end of a long day, smearing on your
cleanser and removing the days pollution
from your pores is always a great feeling.
However, finding one to suit your skin whether
it be normal, dry or oily/combination can be a
chore — especially if you’re unsure it will work.
A crucial step in your routine should be
toning. Toning protects the skin; restores pH
balances and reduces the appearance of pores.
It is a brilliant preparation for moisturisation
and contributes immensely to your moisturiser
penetrating the skin properly.
Of course, every great skincare routine ends
with the holy grail - moisturiser. The most popular
of all skincare products, we are lucky to today
have a vast range of lotions and potions on the
market to choose from.
Finding the perfect products can be stressful,
especially for the skincare-obsessed, and
especially if your skin is prone to inflammation
or breakouts. However, with a range to choose
from tailored to your skin type (and recommended
by both consumers and experts), you’re sure to
be in good hands.
