CONQUERING THE GREAT INDOORS
Janine Mendes-Franco
We’ve all been spending more time than usual inside, thanks to the COVID-19 pandemic, and while that means our skin is exposed to fewer environmental pollutants (yay!), there are other things that can wreak havoc.
The drying effect of re-circulated air, disruptions in your regular skin care routine, increased hand washing, and the added stress caused by the pandemic can all have ill effects on the health of your skin. Here’s how to make the indoors work for you…
STAY HYDRATED /
Drinking those eight glasses of water a day is one of the easiest things you can do for your overall health, including the health of your skin.
BE GENTLE WITH YOURSELF /
This is not a time to be vigorous with your skin. Mild cleansers and scrubs, like our SkinCeuticals Gentle Cleanser, are great at removing dirt and other impurities while soothing dry, sensitive skin. Check out our range of cleansers, all of which do the job while keeping skin properly hydrated.
DON’T COMPROMISE – MOISTURISE /
Moisturisers are a staple of healthy skin. Our SkinCeuticals range nourishes dry skin, balancing its natural ecosystem and restoring radiance.
MAKE SERUMS YOUR SAVIOUR /
Serums are a critical addition to your skin care arsenal during this pandemic, and we’ve got a wide range to choose from! With more time being spent on screens, they help protect your skin against the harmful glare of tech devices. If you don’t have a serum readily available, sunscreen can also offer you solid protection.
DON’T LAPSE /
It’s important to keep your regular skin care products replenished in order to avoid gaps in your routine. If you prefer not to physically venture out, our online store allows you to order whatever you need, and we’ll deliver your supplies to you!
