Your skin is more dynamic than you might realise. Not only can it look and feel different over years, months and weeks, it can even behave differently day-to-day. External factors like sun exposure, environmental stressors, hydration levels, sleep habits, and daily lifestyle choices can impact your skin quality. On the plus side, the products you use regularly (such as AHA exfoliants, antioxidant-rich formulas, and retinol-based actives) may help reduce the look of complexion concerns like acne scars, skin texture, uneven skin tone, and enlarged pores.
From AM To PM
During the day, the most important step is to protect your skin from the sun. Using sunscreen (and taking other sun protection measures) is essential for daily defence and maintaining your skin health long-term. Antioxidants, particularly from Vitamin C, are also ideal for visibly improving your skin texture, tone, and overall radiance.
In the evenings, prioritise rich moisturisation and hydration. This helps to nourish your skin as you rest and protect it from transepidermal water loss overnight. It’s also the right time for more powerful skincare, such as AHA exfoliation or retinol products, which may be too strong for use during the day.
