New Year’s means a new opportunity to change up your routine. When it comes to your skin, you can start today. As the largest organ of the human body, your skin has special needs. Unlike hair and nails, skin requires special treatment to look and feel its best.
Here are our Top Skin Care Resolutions to help you get your skin the healthiest it can be:
Wash your face every night
Washing your face twice a day isn’t a marketing ploy to get you to use more face wash—it’s a necessity for healthy skin. During the day, the build-up of makeup, environmental debris such as smog, dirt, bacteria, sweat and dead skin cells creates a film over the skin surface that prevents it from functioning at its best. By washing your face at night, it preps the skin to receive the nourishing ingredients of your facial toner, moisturizer and night treatment creams.

Don’t forget your hands
If you don’t like the way your skin looks, it may be the products you use. Just because something works for your best friend or your boss, it doesn’t mean that it will work for you.
Rethink your skin care routine and change it up as needed. When you do, be sure to focus on products that are free of harmful ingredients including sulfates, phthalates, mineral oil, lanolin, artificial fragrance, artificial color, SD alcohol and more.

Use skin care products with anti-inflammatory ingredients
Inflammation is linked to many general health issues, including skin problems. The ingredients in your skin care can contribute to inflammation, so using skin care with anti-inflammatory ingredients is important.
Seek out ingredients such as:
- Alteromonas Macleodii
- Frankincense
- Lavender
- Pumpkin Seed Peptides
- Tetrapeptide-7, Dipeptide-2 and Hesperidin Methylchalcon Complex
Wash your makeup brushes every week
The combination of oil, bacteria, makeup and grime can clog pores and trigger breakouts. Be sure to wash your makeup brushes every week with warm water and hand soap designed to cut grease to ensure the bristles are free of pore-clogging material. After washing, reshape the bristles as needed. Fold a hand-towel in half and lay brushes flat to dry.
Wear SPF every day
The SPF in your makeup isn’t enough to protect your skin from damaging UV rays. You need to apply a cream with SPF15 or higher to ensure you’re adequately protected. Dermatologists recommend that SPF be applied before your moisturizer.
Get moles checked
According to www.skincancer.org, over the past 30 years, more people have died of skin cancer than all other cancers combined, including breast, colon, lung and prostate cancer. The first step toward diagnosis is getting moles checked. Even moles you’ve had your entire life can become cancerous, so don’t take anything for granted.
Even if you can add two or three of these suggestions into your daily skin care routine, your skin will look and feel better than before. Add a few more, and you can enjoy an even greater result.
Happy New Year!
