When it comes to the best care you can offer your skin, start by learning more about the unique set of concerns you've been presented with, and then how to address them with specific ingredients and targeted treatments. It's more effective and sustainable to do less with the skin, in a better way. You'd be surprised at the results possible just by consistently using only a handful of the right products while keeping the skin clean, hydrated and protected from the sun and environmental aggressors. A good regime doesn't need to be complex, it just needs to be personal, allow for regularity and most importantly, to start with a solid foundation of products that you can rely on to do the heavy lifting for you.  

Rather than focusing on hero ingredients, following a strategic set of steps daily can help to keep the skin balanced and functioning optimally. In the day, focus on prevention starting with a gentle milk or oil cleanser to preserve barrier function, followed by an antioxidant serum and a broad spectrum SPF. I love Emma’s Skin Reset Serum during the day; the texture is so beautifully replenishing and contains a patented plant stem cell extract and bioavailable Vitamin C to shield from oxidative stress and regulate melanin production. It also has one of my favourite ingredients — niacinamide which is so helpful in strengthening the skin, regulating oil production and deters the melanin transfer to the surface layers of the skin.
