First you must cleanse both morning and night. Removing makeup and dirt that you have acquired throughout the day is essential.
It's up to you which cleanser you like to use - cream, balm, foaming cleanser or oil. Or perhaps you're a micellar water fan? No matter. But make sure you do it.
We like Nivea 3-in-1 Urban Skin Detox Clay Wash, $10.
Next, apply a serum. Use one that is targeted to provide the results you're after and is designed to suit your skin type. For example, if your skin is dry and you're developing fine lines and wrinkles there's a serum created for that very issue.
Find the serum that works for you.
We like Dr Lewinn's Eternal Youth Day & Night Serum, $70.
Moisturiser comes next.
Again, you'll need one that suits your needs. This includes texture and scent too. Even packaging. You're going to be doing this day and night and you want to make the process not only efficient but also pleasurable.
We like Olay Regenerist Micro Sculpting Cream, $49.
Finally, during the day time you will also need a sun protection product of some type. And yes, we mean EVERY single day all year round. You can opt for moisturisers which include a high level SPF and / or a foundation with the same, but your best best is to apply an actual sunscreen too.
We like La Roche-Posay Anthelios XL Ultra-Light Fluid Tinted SPF 50+ Sunscreen, $29.99.
