RITUALS: SKINCARE ROUTINE GUIDE

Jan 24

In a world that often feels rushed and overwhelming, having a skincare ritual can be a grounding moment of calm and self-care in your day. Whether you’re a seasoned skincare enthusiast or just starting to explore the world of skincare, this guide will help you craft a thoughtful routine that not only nourishes your skin but elevates your everyday ritual into something truly luxurious.

CLEANSING:

Cleansing is the foundation of any skincare ritual. It removes impurities, makeup, and excess oil to leave your skin clean and balanced. We recommend the Bamford Nourishing Cleansing Balm or the Aesop Parsley Seed Cleanser.

Morning: A gentle, hydrating cleanser preps the skin for the day ahead.
Evening: A double cleanse—starting with an oil cleanser followed by a water-based cleanser—removes makeup, SPF, and pollutants.

TONE: Rebalance and Refresh

A toner preps your skin for the rest of your routine by balancing its pH and adding a layer of hydration. We recommend the Aesop Parsley Seed Anti-Oxidant Facial Toner.

Opt for toners with gentle, nourishing ingredients like rose water, chamomile, or hyaluronic acid.

Toning is also a mindful moment—apply your product with a cotton pad or your hands, taking a deep breath as you pat it into your skin.

TARGET: Your Skin’s Needs

Serums and treatments are where your skincare gets customized. Whether you’re tackling dullness, fine lines, or breakouts, serums are concentrated products that deliver active ingredients to the skin. We recommend the Aesop Parsley Seed Anti-Oxidant Serum or the Bamford Stem Cell Serum.

Morning: Vitamin C serums brighten and protect against environmental stressors.
Evening: Retinol, peptides, or hydrating serums work to repair and rejuvenate overnight.

HYDRATE: Lock in Moisture

Moisturizing is essential for maintaining healthy, glowing skin.

Choose a cream or lotion that suits your skin type:

Lightweight gel creams for oily or combination skin. We recommend the Bamford Nurturing Face Oil.
Richer, nourishing creams for dry skin. We reccomend the Aesop Primrose Facial Hydrating Cream.

Consider this your daily “skin hug,” locking in all the goodness from the previous steps.
