SKIN 101:
BACK TO BASICS Skincare can be a little daunting — but it doesn't need to be.
T
he trick is to start with the key three. The key three builds a solid but simple base to get your regime started. Once you feel confident, get a better understanding of your skin, and want to explore the vast and exciting world of skincare — we'll be right here to help. Like always. Read on to discover Caci’s key three skin foundations: Reformaskin membership, 3-step routine, SPF.
A REFORMASKIN MEMBERSHIP AT CACI The team at Caci know how to get great results. That's why they’ve developed a range of memberships, including their Skin Health Plan — Reformaskin. The Reformaskin membership offers a range of skin conditioning treatments, all developed to help you enjoy skin confidence. These treatments are the foundation to your skincare routine — helping to refresh, hydrate, repair and soothe skin to keep it in its best condition. You can level up these treatments with more advanced options or concerns too. But for now, this is a great starting point. Get a personalised schedule of treatments that best treat your skin concerns including access to member-only benefits (like discounts!) by booking your free consultation. Yep, consultations are free! STEP ROUTINE This is our go-to, fail-proof 3-step routine for everyone who knows they need to be looking after their skin... but doesn't know where to begin. Start here... and then the world (well, your skin) is your oyster. • Cleanser The most basic aspect of skincare that everyone should do at least daily, if not twice a day — already read the label and use as directed. No makeup you say? Still gotta cleanse. With dirt, bacteria, sweat and other surface build-up accumulating on the skin, it's important to rid your pores of all the nasties, regardless of what's on your face. Try cleansing for at least 30 seconds. It's kind of like brushing your teeth, the longer you do it, the better the clean. But don't go overboard
as it may dry your skin out. Not sure on what cleanser to opt for? Look for a cleanser that will target your concern. Acne? Acne cleanser. Pigmentation? Vitamin C cleanser. Dryness? Hydrating cleanser. Better yet, book a free consultation with one of Caci’s skin experts to get a recommendation based on your skin concerns and needs.
The team at Caci love the Skinsmiths Daily Defence Sheer SPF for a weightless, non-greasy option. Want to know more? Book a free consultation with one of Caci’s skin experts. Visit caci.co.nz or head into clinic 14 Clyde St, Whangarei.
Without SPF you will start to see uneven skin tone, dark spots and fine lines in your late 30’s, by the time you are in your mid 40’s you will start to see wrinkles from collagen and elasticity loss and dryness. And by the time you are in early 50’s lines will be deeper and skin will start to feel leathery with obvious collagen and elasticity loss. An easy way to combat this is to incorporate a sunscreen into your regime - every. single. day.
• Moisturiser While we all love cleansing — it can strip some of the natural oils from our skin. This is why moisturiser, our hydrating friend, is so important to keep our skin balanced and nourished. Our skin doesn't make its own water so it's important to give it a drink in the form of moisturiser, twice a day, morning and night. Similar to cleansers, look for a moisturiser that will target your skin concerns. Heavier creams should be used at night while SPF-based and lighter moisturisers can be used during the day. • SPF This is a non-negotiable. If you have to use just one product, make it SPF. This is our number one to protect your beautiful skin whilst fighting signs of aging, pigmentation and more. Sun damage is cumulative and can happen both outside and inside. In fact, blue light from your phone can be doing damage. Make SPF, your BFF. • Protection! It's the final step in your 3-step routine, so you know it's got to have it's own feature on this list. Your skin’s job is to look after you, protecting your body from the world outside (and it does a very good job!). So give it a hand!
