Kind of a long post BUT worth a read if you care about skin products. More of my clients will notice I’m coming down a bit harder on the old skin care routine with you. A few years ago my good friend was absolutely horrified when she found out I didn’t even cleanse my face. I was too busy for all that nonsense and just relied on my makeup naturally wearing off that day before bed time 😆. I was dry, sensitive, and despite thinking I wasn’t a sun worshiper I had extensive pigmentation from years of sun exposure and no SPF. These pictures are five years apart. There is no fast fix here. Only consistency. I started off easy, learning to cleanse at the end of the day, and now I am a full blown skin care addict. I cycle and depending on what my goal is at that time. Sometimes I want to be encouraging regeneration and faster cell turn over, and sometimes I go a bit gentler encouraging balance and repair. Not only has all my pigmentation gone, I genuinely think looking at these two comparisons, my skin has aged in reverse (thanks to Nicola). For full disclosure - over that five year period I also had 1 co2 laser session, 1 Morpheus8 session and one Secret RF session. I’ve micro needled myself a handful of times (not as much as I should) but otherwise, this is good, consistent, slow progress with medical grade products (and skin boosters). So the next time I’m asking you about what your routine is, I’m trying to do you the same favour that my pal did me 5 years ago ❤️ You can all thank me later 😉
