It’s almost that time of the year again, when the gyms become packed full of people trying to accomplish their New Years Resolution’s. While being fit and healthy is good and all, we must not forget about our skin! Rather than making one big commitment, there are a handful of smaller changes we can make before the New Year arrives. We can all do so by keeping these 10 skincare tips in mind:

 

 Change Your Pillowcase

I’m sure you have been told this time and time again, but we should be changing our pillowcases at least twice a week. So much bacteria builds up on your pillow cases that it can cause breakouts. Try to commit to switching out your pillowcases twice a week. (Bonus Tip: Try switching to a silk pillowcase not only is it good for your skin but it’s also great for your hair!).

 

 Wash Your Makeup Brushes

Just as pillowcases can harvest bacteria, makeup brushes are a common source as well. Once you get the hang of  making a habit of cleaning your makeup brushes on a weekly basis, I promise you’ll see the difference in not only your complexion, but in the application of your makeup as well.

 

Always Wash Before Bed

It is very easy to skip washing your face after a long day at work or a long night out. Try washing your face nightly with a lightweight cleanser like the OCEANE White Pearl Milk Cleanser. We also recommend keeping face wipes around for those nights when you are too exhausted to take your makeup off and just need a quick fix.

 

Drink More Water

This is one of the easiest and probably already on your resolution list, but it doesn’t hurt to remind you that water can make a huge impact on the health of your skin. Try carrying a water bottle around so you have no excuse not to be drinking water.

 

Create A Consistent Skincare Routine

With so many options in the market for skincare, it can be hard to want to just stick with one brand or products when it comes to your skincare. But dermatologist recommend maintaining a consistent skincare routine for at least three months before making any changes to truly see results. 

 

Avoid Harsh Chemicals & Take Your Vitamins

Typically found in drugstore cleansers, fillers and harsh chemicals can strip the skin of its natural oils. Lucky for us, we are seeing more all natural skincare lines becoming available. Just as all natural products offer healthy benefits to your skin, so do daily vitamins. Try a tasty gummy vitamin and include them in your morning routine. Your skin will thank you!

 

Picking Blemishes

We have all been there, it can be very tempting to pick at the blemishes on your skin, but it is not good for you! Try resisting the urge this upcoming year and treat acne right by cleansing the area and apply a good acne fighting product daily. You will be shocked when you see how quickly your skin will clear up.

 

Don’t Rush!

Another problem that most people struggle with is layering on your products too quickly. It is important to let your serum absorb into your skin before applying your moisturizer. So try to give yourself those some extra time to make sure each of your products does its job.

 

Don’t Skip The Moisturizer

Moisturizer is a daily must for every woman. Even if your skin doesn’t feel dry, applying moisturizer after you cleanse is a must! When you shampoo your hair, but it has to have conditioner to make it manageable and soft. Try using OCEANE Beauty’s White Pearl Moisturizing Cream. So try think of it like conditioning your hair, your skin needs moisturizer to balance out your cleanse.
