Why this worksAchieving a natural glow involves enhancing your skin's moisture and radiance. Techniques like gentle exfoliation and hydration help remove dead skin cells and promote a fresh appearance. By boosting skin's natural luminosity, you can achieve a spring-ready glow without heavy makeup.

The ritual, step by step

  1. Gentle Exfoliation Start with a gentle exfoliant to remove dead skin cells. Use a chemical exfoliant like a mild AHA or BHA once or twice a week. Always patch-test first, especially if you have sensitive skin.
  2. Hydrating Serum Apply a hydrating serum rich in ingredients like hyaluronic acid. This helps lock in moisture and plump the skin, giving it that dewy appearance. Remember to apply it to damp skin for better absorption.
  3. Moisturiser with Glow Choose a lightweight moisturiser that contains illuminating properties. This not only hydrates but also adds a subtle glow to your skin. Look for ingredients like glycerin or vitamin E.
  4. SPF Protection Finish your routine with a broad-spectrum SPF to protect your skin. This will prevent sun damage and maintain your glow over time. Apply generously and reapply throughout the day.

Where people go wrong

Many people over-exfoliate, thinking more is better; this can irritate the skin. Skipping hydration is another common error - dry skin won't glow. Lastly, neglecting SPF can lead to dullness and damage, so always apply it daily.

The pro moveTry mixing a few drops of facial oil into your moisturiser for an extra boost of radiance.
