Mornings for some can be pretty hectic. From the moment you wake up, to the moment you step out (or when the rest of your family wakes up, in the case of most mothers!). There's always a million and one things to do.
The last thing you want to do is add another thing to your to do list. But if there’s going to be one thing you need to carve out the time for, it’s a morning skincare routine.
But why, exactly, is a morning skincare routine so important? Do you need a morning routine if you’re already on top of your skincare at night? Evening skincare is for correcting, and morning skincare is for protecting.
A morning skincare routine is a must if you want to keep your skin looking and feeling it’s best. It’s about giving your skin what it needs to protect itself from environmental stressors and prevent any further damage.
If you want your skin to look its best, you need to both correct and protect your complexion, and that means making both morning and evening skincare an important part in your routine.
It doesn’t need to be long winded. Each person and their situations are different, and you can choose to be as minimal as you’d like. As long as you’ve incorporated protective serums and moisturisers to ensure your skin has a safe barrier, it will be ready to tackle environmental stressors, and protect itself from any damage throughout the day.
