How to brighten dull skin
Now that spring had sprung, we can look forward to warmer days and more daylight hours to enjoy time outdoors. But the harsh winter can take its toll and skin can become dull and lacklustre. Spring is the perfect time to revitalise your skincare and refresh and brighten your complexion. If you want to achieve glowing, radiant skin look no further than our radiance-boosting tips and skincare picks for a healthier glow .
1. Cleanse!
Pollution can have a major effect on our skin. To reduce the potential for damage, cleansing is possibly the most important element of any daily skin care routine, as it removes airborne pollutants. Choose carefully and ensure you select a gentle cleanser, which does not damage the fragile acid mantle layer of the skin. This is your skin’s natural defence against pollutants. Our Antioxidant Multi-Tasking Super Balm is an all-in-one cleansing balm, decongesting face polish, nourishing mask and intensive moisturiser. For a soft, smooth glowing complexion. If you can only have one item of skincare, make it this one.
2. Exfoliate
Gentle exfoliation helps to remove dead skin cells from the surface of the skin to prevent it from looking lacklustre and dull. Choose a gentle non-abrasive exfoliator to achieve a natural radiance without stripping the skin. Our Kale Enzymatic Exfoliator refines, smooths and nourishes the skin. Pomegranate enzymes and jojoba beads gently exfoliate without scratching to remove dead skin cells and impurities revealing smoother, healthier skin.
3. Drink Plenty of Water
Make sure that you drink at least 6-8 glasses of water a day to keep your skin hydrated and healthy looking.
4. Use a Facial Serum
A facial serum is a crucial step in any skincare routine. Prep your skin with a super hydrating facial serum for a radiant complexion. Our Radiance Rejuvenating Peptide Serum enhances natural radiance and gives an even skin tone ready for flawless make-up.
