? m u r se
WHAT MAKES IT UNIQUE? According to dermatologists, serums are concentrated formulas of topical ingredients such as vitamin A, C and E. This means that you’re able to intensify the strength of your skincare routine with only a few drops. There are multiple serums used for different purposes, some formulas are used to brighten and hydrate while others are used to reduce blemishes and signs of ageing. HOW TO APPLY A SERUM? There’s nothing too complicated about the application of serums, the active ingredients do most of the work for you! Once you’ve found the serum that works for your skin type, you can apply it twice a day after you’ve finished the cleansing and toning steps in your skincare regime. Follow with sunscreen in the morning and moisturiser at night.

LOVE THE YOU’RE IN KNOWING YOUR SKIN TYPE IS THE MOST IMPORTANT STEP IN DETERMINING WHAT SKINCARE PRODUCTS WILL WORK BEST FOR YOU. COMBINATION, OILY AND DRY ARE THE THREE BASIC SKIN CATEGORIES THAT OFTEN REQUIRE SOME EXTRA CARE. TO HELP YOU BRING BALANCE TO YOUR UNIQUE COMPLEXION, WE’VE PUT TOGETHER SOME HELPFUL TIPS AND RECOMMENDATIONS FOR YOUR CLEANSING AND MOISTURISING ROUTINE.
Combination
SKIN
The key is to balance the dry and oily areas of your face with mild formulas and light textures. CLEANSING If you have combination skin, the pores in your t-zone are often larger than the rest of your face. Harsh products may clog your pores and using a gentle cleanser is recommended. The Clarins Gentle Foaming Cleanser is perfect for normal to combination skin, the creamy foam gently washes away make-up, pollutants and other impurities that can block pores, while still preserving the skin’s natural moisture balance. MOISTURISING Combination skin gives you the option to separate your moisturisers to suit the different areas of your face, however, if you’re looking for an all-round option the L’Oreal Triple Active Day Multi-Protection Moisturiser (normal to combination) is a great start. The formula has been enriched with vitamin E, ceramide, and a UV filter to offer long-lasting hydration, protection, and radiance for your skin.
Oily
9
SKIN
Oily skin is caused by an over-secretion of sebum, an oily substance our skin needs in order to function properly. This often leads to enlarged pores and a shiny residue. A common misconception is that oily skin needs less moisture, however, the less hydration you give your skin the more oil it will produce.
CLEANSING Washing your face twice a day to remove dirt and bacteria that may clog your pores will help with the over secretion of sebum. An ideal candidate is the Kiehl’s Ultra Facial Oil-Free Cleanser, it has a non-greasy, non-oily texture and leaves the skin clean without stripping it of essential moisture. MOISTURISING The PLACECOL Matt Radiance Day Moisturiser is specially formulated to help maintain clear skin by keeping pores from clogging. It also helps regulate oil production to reduce shine, refine texture and improve radiance.
Dry
SKIN
A lack of moisture in the skin can result in a flaky and rough appearance. The key is to use products that restore hydration and prevent water loss. CLEANSING The Lancome Express Clarifying Self-Foaming Cleanser uses a lightweight foam which activates with water to create a truly luxurious cleanser. Its fresh formula gently cleanses away makeup and impurities to clarify the complexion, leaving the skin soft, radiant, and healthy-looking. MOISTURISING The Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour® Cream Intensive Daily Moisturiser is a hydrating lotion that leaves the skin feeling soft, smooth, and moisturised for up to 8 hours. It even protects the skin from the effects of extreme weather with an SPF 15 shield.

TIPS
There’s no need to carry out a complicated routine, however these basic tips will help every skin type maintain a basic, healthy, and hydrating regime. STAY HYDRATED Drinking enough water helps flush toxins and increase your skin’s blood flow for extra elasticity, a more even tone, and fewer fine lines. WEAR SUNSCREEN Sunscreen is a must for overall skin health maintenance. Direct sun exposure can dry up your skin, cause wrinkles and dark patches. There are many different types of sunscreen that can work for your skin, from oil-free to moisturising, there’s no excuse not to wear one. REMOVE MAKEUP BEFORE SLEEPING No matter how tired you are, removing your makeup will avoid breakouts, a dull appearance, and possible infection.

LET’S BE HONEST, WE’RE ALL JUST LOOKING FOR A SIMPLE, SOOTHING AND ACNE-FRIENDLY SKINCARE ROUTINE. WHETHER IT’S A WEEKEND AWAY WITH THE GIRLS OR YOU’RE TOO LAZY TO GET OFF THE COUCH, WE’VE PUT TOGETHER THE KIND OF REGIME YOU CAN FOLLOW ANYWHERE, ANYTIME.
Step 1
CLEANSING IS COOL
This step may seem obvious but what you might not know is that not ALL acne face washes are helping your skin. Some, if not most, are too strong and leave the skin feeling too tight. Gentle cleansers are just as effective when it comes to removing excess oil, dirt, and bacteria without stripping your skin.
BREAKUP WITH YOUR
t u o k a bre
The Clarins One-Step Gentle Exfoliating Cleanser with Orange Extract is a mild exfoliating face scrub that gently cleanses, exfoliates, and sweeps away impurities while protecting the skin’s hydrolipid film. The orange syrup softens, refreshes, and revitalises while the gentle silica microbeads purify and give clogged pores a breather.
Step 2
BE WISE AND MOISTURISE
If you were told that oily/acne-prone skin doesn’t need moisture, you were told wrong. It is a crucial step in your skincare routine. Without it, your oil glands will begin overproducing sebum to keep your skin hydrated, this then leads to an excess of oil and clogged pores. Your skin needs plenty of moisture-loving with a formula that balances oil targeting ingredients with hydration. The Kiehl’s Acne Face Treatment Lotion helps to correct and prevent future blemishes while reducing the appearance of dullness and rough texture. Formulated with acne-clearing salicylic acid and pine bark extract, the facial treatment lotion calms and soothes inflamed skin, while diminishing visible redness and evening skin tone for a clear complexion.
Step 3
SAY YES TO THE SPF
We know just how frustrating acne scarring can be, but one of the most important steps to avoiding damage is protecting it from the sun. When you decide to go in the sun without sunscreen, spots and scarring will only get darker and more permanent with the harsh UV rays of the South African sun. This is why it’s important to wear SPF every day, there’s no need to be afraid as there’s plenty of oil-friendly options to choose from. The YUNGSKIN Sun Care SPF40 is non-greasy, non-sticky, lightweight, and easy to apply. It absorbs into the skin effortlessly, leaving no white streak marks after application and no ‘residue’ on the skin.

SHAVING TIPS FOR A SOFT, EVEN FINISH.
OPERATOR?
Cleanse
A soft, well-cleansed face helps avoid any cuts and irritations while shaving. The heat from the shower and a moisturising, non-stripping face wash ensures that the hairs are soothed down, and your razor’s blade can glide easily. The Jack Black All Over Wash is a multipurpose, sulphate-free wash that provides a rich lather to eliminate dirt and sweat without stripping the skin and hair of essential moisture.
Lather UP
Apply a shaving gel, lather it up and cover the entire beard to help moisturise the hairs and create a slick glide on the blade. The Nivea Men Sensitive One Stroke Shaving Gel gives every stubble length the ultimate smooth shave with one stroke. It also instantly protects from 5 signs of skin irritation: burning, redness, dryness, tightness, micro cuts.
Best OF BOTH WORLDS
You can shave with and against the grain as your facial hair grows in many different directions. Throughout your routine you will begin to learn which areas require different angles to give you the smoothest shave.
Always MOISTURISE
Wash your face with cool water and pat it dry. Rub in a hydrating lotion to help your skin feel soft and comfortable. If you have a combination/oily skin type then the Nivea Men Deep Matte Moisturiser will help your skin absorb necessary hydration with its non-greasy, ultra-light formula. If your skin is prone to breakouts after shaving make sure that you still use a soothing moisturiser straight after and follow up the next day with an anti-blemish face cream such as the L’Oreal Men Expert Pure Power Anti-Spot Moisturiser. This solution helps fight against spots and reduce excess oil on your face.
