The ultimate skincare checklist

Im about to spill the tea on what it takes to have GREAT SKIN. We’re going to go over the importance of having a detailed skin routine, the importance of nourishing our bodies with skin-loving foods, and treating ourselves to some monthly pampering sessions with a licensed pro.

A Good Regimen:

So, what exactly does a good skincare regimen consist of? Let's break it down:

• Gentle Cleanser: First things first, you need a cleanser that gets the job done without leaving your skin feeling like the Sahara Desert. Opt for a gentle cleanser that removes dirt and grime without stripping away your skin's natural moisture.

• Antioxidant : Antioxidants are like little warriors defending your skin against environmental stressors and free radicals. Look for ingredients such as licorice root extract, vitamin E or my personal favorite vitamin A are especially important for darker skin tones, helping to combat hyperpigmentation and maintain an even complexion.

• Targeted Treatments: Got specific skin concerns you want to address? Your skincare arsenal should include products tailored to your needs. Whether it's acne, dark spots, or fine lines, there's a treatment out there with your name on it.

• Exfoliation : Slough off those dead skin cells and reveal the glowing goddess underneath with regular exfoliation. Whether you prefer a gentle scrub or a chemical exfoliant, just remember—once a week or biweekly is plenty. We don't want to strip away too much of that precious skin barrier!

• Moisturizer: HYDRATE HYDRATE HYDRATE, LISTEN if you don’t do anything else in this list please invest in a quality moisturizer that keeps your skin supple and soft

• Sunscreen Savior: Last but certainly not least, never skip the sunscreen! Protect your precious skin from harmful UV rays with a broad-spectrum SPF. Trust us, your future self will thank you.

For those of you reading this like uh uh who has time to do all that, well HEAR ME OUT! taking care of your skin is not only effective but an act of self love. Doing my routine while saying powerful affirmations and knowing that this time is all about me is an AMAZING feeling. Even if it means waking up 15 minutes earlier or even doing this routine in its entirely once a week will make such a huge difference in your skin and self confidence.

Nutrition

Get ready to feast, because these skin-loving foods are about to take your glow game to the next level:

Avocados, berries, and leafy greens are your skin's besties, packed with vitamins and antioxidants that keep you looking fresh and radiant.

let's not sleep on fatty fish, nuts, and seeds—loaded with omega-3 fatty acids and healthy fats, they keep your skin hydrated and plump from the inside out.

Sip on some antioxidant-rich green tea to fight off inflammation and protect your skin from UV damage and pollution, you skin and esthetician will thank you for it.
