If you’re anything like me, I spent most of my lockdown time revelling in the fact that I didn’t have to put makeup on every day. In fact, I enjoyed it so much that I have promised myself that when I can I will wear my skin as nature intended – without foundation! But baring all does mean you need to ensure your complexion is up to the job and there are a few things you can do to maintain natural radiance.
CLEANSE, TONE & MOISTURISE: A twice-daily skincare routine is essential to keep your face is at its healthiest. Throughout the day, your skin comes into contact with all manner of dirt, pollutants and environmental factors, and not taking care of it properly – morning and night – and you’ll soon find you’re suffering from constant spots, break-outs, blocked pores and early ageing signs.

IT’S TRUE, YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT: Ensuring good vitamins levels is vital for healthy skin. The quickest way to achieve this is to eat a varied diet and mix up the colours in your vegetables – think of traffic lights, with each colour representing what your body needs. Add to this olives, olive oil, nuts and avocadoes to improve your skins elasticity leading to balance and smoothness.

HYDRATE, HYDRATE, HYDRATE: If your skin struggles to maintain its natural hydration level you’ll notice dry patches that become exacerbated by changes in the weather and the harsh chemicals found in many beauty products and makeup. Reach for products that boost hydration for a more comfortable complexion

USE A WEEKLY MASK: While your everyday cleansers and moisturisers are great to keep the surface of your skin in good condition, adding a once-a-week face mask can help with a whole host of woes, from excess oil and clogged pores to fine lines and break-outs. They draw out impurities, remove the build-up of dead cells and increase hydration to give your face the TLC it really needs.
