Morning Skincare Routine

A good morning routine sets the tone for your entire day — and that includes your skincare. The products you use in the morning don’t just make your skin look fresh and radiant, they also protect it from pollution, UV rays, and daily stressors.

Step 1: Gentle Cleanser
Start by washing your face with a mild, hydrating cleanser. This helps remove any oil, sweat, or product buildup from overnight without stripping your skin. Look for a formula that feels refreshing but not harsh.

Step 2: Hydrating Toner or Essence
A lightweight toner or essence preps your skin to absorb the next steps better. Choose one with soothing ingredients like aloe vera, green tea, or hyaluronic acid to give your skin a hydration boost.

Step 3: Lightweight Moisturizer
Hydration is key to healthy skin. In the morning, opt for a lightweight moisturizer that locks in hydration without feeling heavy, so your skin feels soft and smooth all day.

Step 4: Sunscreen (The Non-Negotiable!)
If there’s one step you can’t skip, it’s sunscreen. UV rays are the number one cause of premature aging and skin damage. Choose a broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher and make it your last step before makeup.

✨ Pro Tip: Keep your routine consistent, but adjust it seasonally. For example, use richer moisturizers in winter and lighter gels in summer.
