So over to you SJ!
Let it all sink in
Providing a clean base for your skincare and makeup routine is essential for your products to penetrate and work effectively especially in the summer months. I recommend using a Saviour Sponge to remove makeup and then to cleanse with a cream cleanser to gently exfoliate, soften and smooth the skin. Always pick a cleanser that suits your skin type for best results.
My pick: Saviour Sponge by Farm Girl, Medki8 & Paula’s Choice
Reveal new skin
Remove tired and dead skin to reveal the glow underneath, I prefer not to use facial scrubs as they can cause scratches & minor tears which can lead to breakouts if any bacteria gets into the skin. Look to use an alpha hydroxy acid such as Lactic or Glycolic acid to dissolve away the top surface of your skin. Makeup stays on for much longer when it doesn’t cling to any dead skin cells.
My pick: Good Genes by Sunday Riley & Dr Dennis Gross Daily Peel Pads
Brighten up with Vitamin C serum
Use this adored hero ingredient in your morning routine to improve the appearance of dark spots and to protect your skin from daily assaults such as UV rays and environmental stressors. This powerful antioxidant will undo damage and protect your future skin!
My pick: Farm Girl Vitamin C & Drunk Elephant Vitamin C
Luminise and Moisturise
I swear by using a colour-correcting & moisturising primer to hydrate and prep the skin for makeup or to use alone. Charlotte Tilbury’s Youth Glow includes pearlescent pigments which also blurs the look of imperfections.
My pick: Charlotte Tilbury Healthy Glow
The need to knead
Lift and Sculpt for the big day! Facial massage hugely increases blood circulation in the face which oxygenates the skin leaving it glowing and radiant. We use our Gua Sha and Icey Globes in all our facials to sculpt the face, exercise and muscles and improve the appearance and tone of the skin. They are perfect to use at home to ease muscle tension and don’t forget your shoulders too.
My pick: Farm Girl Icey Globes and Gua Sha
Chanel's Fave Farm Girl Facial - The Purification Regulating, decongesting and perfect for redness and blocked pores!
