Routine
A simple skincare routine that works
Cleanse, moisturize and protect from the sun. Most skin needs nothing more complicated than that.
Cleanse gently
Harsh soaps and scrubs strip the skin barrier and can make dryness and dark marks worse. A mild cleanser once or twice a day is enough.
Moisturize
A plain, fragrance-free moisturizer keeps the skin barrier healthy. Apply it while the skin is still slightly damp.
Protect
Daily sunscreen is the single most useful step for even skin tone and for preventing new dark spots.
