Bid farewell to pesky dry skin and say hello to skin-loving tips.
– KEYS SOULCARE
If you’ve noticed your skin feeling drier and more delicate lately, you’re not alone. Changing seasons can bring the unwelcome guest of dry, flaky skin, signaling it’s time to revamp your skincare ritual. The good news? Achieving a radiant complexion year-around is simpler than you might think. You can stay hydrated and glowy season to season with the right skincare regimen and a few soul-loving tweaks.
From conquering dry skin to selecting the right face moisturizer, consider this your guide to a soulful and hydrating skincare ritual.
TOP 4 TIPS
Changing seasons or unpredictable weather doesn’t mean your skin has to suffer. In fact, it’s an opportunity to elevate your skincare game! Following these four simple steps can help keep your complexion protected- and luminous-looking:
1. Hydration, Inside and Out
Dry air can dehydrate your skin. Stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water throughout the day! Hydration from within provides a solid foundation for your skincare routine.
For your external hydration, remember that all moisturizers aren’t created equal. Look for ingredients like hyaluronic acid and ceramides, which can help lock in moisture and create a more protective barrier against the elements.
2. Gentle Cleansing
Opt for a gentler cleanser that won’t disrupt your skin’s natural moisture balance. Our Golden Face Cleanser has a silky texture that leaves skin feeling cleansed without over-drying.
3. Exfoliate Wisely
Exfoliation remains important year-around, but be mindful of how often you do it. Limit exfoliation to once or twice a week to avoid irritating your skin. Choose a mild exfoliator, like our Be Luminous Exfoliating Powder, that uses ingredients like lactic acid to help slough away dead skin cells without causing damage.
4. Protect and Defend
Don’t forget the sunscreen! Many people think sunscreen is only necessary in the summer or when in the sun, but harmful UV rays are still present. Opt for a broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher to help shield your skin from potential damage.
CHOOSING THE RIGHT FACE MOISTURIZER
Hydration is not one-size-fits-all. Different seasons call for different skincare solutions. When it comes to your Keys Soulcare offerings, three iconic face moisturizers deserve a closer look:
1. Skin Transformation Cream
This moisturizer is your everyday go-to. Its lightweight formula provides essential hydration without feeling too heavy on the skin. Our Skin Transformation Face Cream is made with powerful, hydrating ingredients that help give skin the nourishment it needs:
- Bakuchiol: This Ayurvedic extract from the Indian babchi plant, known as “nature’s retinol,” helps boost the skin’s vitality.
- Malachite: An ancient Egyptian gem, malachite is believed to purify and soothe, promoting inner calm and transformation.
- Ceramides: These lipids help fortify the skin’s natural barrier, helping to seal in moisture for long-lasting hydration.
- Hyaluronic Acid: A natural sugar molecule, hyaluronic acid helps lock in atmospheric moisture, leaving your skin plumper-looking.
2. Rich Skin Transformation Cream
For an extra boost of hydration, it’s time to upgrade to the Rich Skin Transformation Face Cream. This thick, luxurious cream is like a warm hug for your skin. Packed with nourishing ingredients, it helps combat dryness and helps soothe irritated skin. Apply it generously in the AM or using it as a restorative night cream to wake up feeling refreshed. The best ritual to get started:
- Morning or night, gently massage the moisturizing cream onto your skin using upward motions
- Enrich the ritual by reciting the affirmation, I embrace change during the application
Pro tip: Pair with the Radiant Hydrating Eye Cream for more divine nourishment and comfort.
3. Protect Your Light SPF30
If you need to hear it again: Yes, you need SPF! Even during darker, grayer days, the sun’s UV rays can still affect your skin. Protect Your Light Face Sunscreen SPF30 helps shield your skin from the sun’s harmful rays. Having this in your morning routine is non-negotiable. Some of the added perks of this derm-developed moisturizer include:
- Broad spectrum UVA/UVB SPF 30 protection for everyday wear
- It’s invisible on all skin tones — because white cast has no place in soulcare
Pro Tip: This SPF is lightweight and non-greasy, so it layers well with skincare and makeup.
RADIATE CONFIDENCE, EMBRACE INDIVIDUALITY
As you transition your skincare ritual, remember that nourishing your skin is an act of self-love. By choosing the right moisturizer and committing to daily sun protection, you can confidently step into any season, knowing that your radiant skin reflects the love and care you’ve poured into it. With Keys Soulcare by your side, your skincare routine becomes a beautiful ritual of self-expression and empowerment.
