I’ve been incorporating Simple Skincare products into my daily skincare routine for almost a year now, and have seen some pretty fantastic results. I rarely break out the way I used to, and my skin just feels generally calmer and more stable. But I still have skin issues – persistent dryness (that eases up a little in the summer, but is still there all year round), undereye puffiness, and fine lines (especially around my eyes).
And it’s spring, and spring is all about starting fresh, so I took a minute to revisit my skincare routine and see if I’m using the right products for my specific issues, and what (if anything) needs to be added or taken away.
Simple recently developed Simple Sense, an interactive skincare tool that considers each person’s individual skin triggers, lifestyle, diet and well-being in order to create a detailed skincare routine. I took it yesterday, and was blown away by how extensive and personalized the advice was. And it’s so nice! Seriously, when it gets to areas that you could maybe improve a little on, it basically gives you a hug and says “That’s OK, we all struggle with this stuff sometimes.” Lovely all around.
My Major Take-Home Tips:
– I tend to just splash my face with water in the morning, but the tool recommended that I add a gentle cleanser to my morning routine.
– I do try to exfoliate regularly, but sometimes…you know, life gets in the way. And I forget. Simple Sense recommended that I try to commit to once-a-week exfoliation with a gentle scrub.
– I should remember to use a moisturizer with SPF even if my plans don’t involve being outside all day long; even small amounts of exposure can damage skin.
– I need to chill out and stop being such a stressball (I’m trying, I’m trying).
The Products Recommended For Me:
Simple Eye Makeup Remover (I already use this religiously)
Simple Protecting Light Moisturizer with SPF 15 (check, will do)
Simple Radiance Cleansing Wipes (I love Simple’s cleansing wipes, and just installed a new package in my bedside table)
Simple Soothing Facial Toner (will incorporate this into my nightly routine)
