I Don’t Have Time For A Lengthy Skincare Routine
Okay, so let’s keep this short!
You don’t need a 10 step routine to start seeing results. I tell my clients daily that I would rather them use 4 good quality products than 10 okay products - because you will see better results with the 4 more concentrated products with medical grade ingredients.
So, lets maximize the benefits while minimizing the time spent!
Here are the must-do essentials to stay with a quick routine and achieve healthy skin.
Using products backed by science and meant for your skin are key to a quick but effective routine. Medical grade skincare uses higher quality ingredients in a higher concentration with a lot less filler ingredients.
This means - your products will last longer, because you need to use less AND you will start seeing results faster! When you zero in on the right products for you, that’s when your skincare game changes and results start showing up.
The essentials are the core products that you need in your routine, period. These are the heavy hitters that are going to get you to where you want to be.
Sure, you can add in other products to enhance those results, but these are the must have’s to create simplicity and reach your goals.
Cleanser - Find a cleanser that will work for your skin, balance your pH (because less steps equals no toner, so you want a cleanser with a built-in toner), deep clean pores and set the tone for your super quick routine. iS Clinical Cleansing Complex is my go-to for this and will be yours too!
Vitamin C (AM) - A Vitamin C product is non-negotiable. Vitamin C help fight free radicals, protects the skin as a powerhouse antioxidant, brightens uneven pigmentation and is an added layer of protection during the day.
Retinol (PM) - Retinol, Retinoids, Retinaldehyde, and Vitamin A all go under the same umbrella and for right now (because the differences can be a whole other blog post) let’s call them all Retinol.
You need retinols to help stimulate collagen in your skin and boost cellular turnover. That’s essential to help with anti-aging because as we age, our cellular turnover slows which can lead to skin looking dull.
Retinol will help boost that turnover rate and stimulate the collagen leading to healthier and firmer looking skin. Sign me up!SUNSCREEN (AM) - I would love to see you add in a moisturizer but if there’s no time… then sunscreen wins.
In fact sunscreen wins above all else. It is the NUMBER ONE most anti-aging product you can apply to your skin.
It will protect from any future damage and will protect the investment on your skin in more ways than one.
Staying consistent is the only way you will see results.
I know it can be hard some nights, when you’ve been cleaning the house, getting kids ready for school, taking out the dog etc.
Sometimes the LAST thing you want to do is go into the bathroom and wash your face, but hear this, and let this ring in your ears on the nights you’re feeling too tired, go to the sink and at least wash your face. Do that one thing for yourself because I promise it will make a difference and your skin will thank you for it.
Keeping your routine simple will help you commit to it, and should take less than 2 minutes to complete. You have 2 minutes, I know you do and you will be happy you did it when you start seeing the results. I suggest making it a nightly ritual, you know you are going to spend 2 minutes on yourself, no matter how late it is and that is something just for you.
OR - do it as soon as you get home from work so that it’s out of the way and when you are ready to crawl into bed you know you’ve already done your routine, woohoo!
We are back to the sunscreen! That’s because its important enough to say twice!
Wear the sunscreen!
There are so many sunscreens on the market, there will be one that you love, I promise!
There are super thin ones with consistency of water, thick ones, tinted ones, and ones that goes on like makeup, multifunctional moisturizer ones plus SPF.
You name it and it is out there and it will benefit you by protecting your skin from UVA/UVB and Blue light rays, protect you from skin cancer and skin disease, help with uneven pigmentation and even keep wrinkles at bay!
Wear the sunscreen, every day, its your new best friend.
Stick with these key essentials to keep your skin glowing and healthy with limited time and effort and you will be shocked at the results you start to see. You are on the path to optimal skin health!
