Since the outbreak of the pandemic, many people’s eyes have been open to the importance of skincare and how it correlates to our overall health. Maintaining an effective skincare regimen can help prevent acne, treat wrinkles, and help your skin look its best. If you are looking to add to your core basic skincare essentials, make sure to have: a cleanser to gently wash your face, a toner to help smooth and calm skin while restoring nutrients, a moisturizer to use after every time you wash your face (even if you have oily skin), sunscreen for sun protection, and an exfoliator that should only be used once or twice a week. If you need inspiration, check out ethical skincare companies such as Alba Botanica, Acure, Derma E, Mukti, and Skyn Iceland.
