This Spring we are adopting the less is more philosophy when it comes to our skincare. Who needs a cupboard filled with half-used items taking up prime real estate in your bathroom? Instead of “goo hoarding” as we affectionately call it, streamline your products and buy skincare that can multitask (almost as well as you do).
Our top choice: A base layer trifecta
If you’re in-the-know — which, of course, we assume you are — sunscreen is a key part of your daily regime. Instead of layering on a moisturizer, followed by sunscreen and then topping it off with a foundation, use a sunscreen that combines a moisturizer, SPF and a tinted glow all-in-one.
Our Chief Dermatologist recommends La Roche-Posay Mineral One SPF 50+ Tinted Sunscreen. It protects, hydrates and tints your skin to create the perfect base layer.
Exfoliant extraordinaire
Instead of buying an exfoliator and a toner, why not combine the two into one powerhouse product? Traditional exfoliants get a bad rap since they tend to contain drying ingredients, but choosing one that contains hyaluronic acid — like our own ClearBalm Power Elixir — won’t dry out your skin.
Double-whammy hydration
For our fellow oily girlies, you may not need extra hydration in your skincare routine because, well, you have oily skin. Instead of using a moisturizer, consider using a serum packed with moisturizing properties, like our ClearBalm Serum Hydrator.
Tackle fine lines and puffiness
Want an eye cream that does more than just treat fine lines? Beauty Stat’s Universal C Eye Perfector firms and smooths crow’s feet while reducing puffiness.
Speed up your bedtime cleanse
Washing up for bed can feel like an endless task, especially when doing a double cleanse. Why not skip a step and combine your eye makeup remover with a pre-cleansing face oil with Glossier’s Milky Oil?
