Simple Skin Tips for the New Year
As this year begins you may wonder what you can do differently this year. Consider sprucing up your skincare routine! Dr. Amanda Lloyd believes that new years can come and go and resolutions can be made and broken, but a good skincare routine is easy to follow and is all about the basics.
Firstly, if there is one step that is non-negotiable in any skincare routine, it is cleansing. Be consistent about your cleansing routine. You must give your face a thorough cleanse to get rid of makeup and other residue before you hit the covers. Sleeping in your make up is the biggest beauty faux pas! As the makeup mixes with the dirt and oils of the day, it can cause clogged pores that can lead to blackheads and breakouts. A good cleanse can keep these nasties at bay.
Although we will be on the cooler and darker side for the next few months, that is not an excuse to skip on sunscreen. No matter the weather or the season, taking a few minutes to apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher can do wonders to your skin in the long run.
Call Dr. Amanda Lloyd on (760) 642-6674 or email [email protected] and schedule an appointment with Skin & Vein Institute in Encinitas for a customized consultation on your skin.
