Lorde’s Guide to Flawless Skin

Silk Flawless Skin Before Makeup

Understanding all that our skin does for us and how to identify different skin types is the fundamental aspects of beauty. Performing your morning & evening skincare routine will not just keep the skin hydrated but will also bless you with a Silky Smooth, Flawless Base for your makeup.

Blemishes and unruly skin can have a massive hinder on one’s confidence and self-esteem. Trying to cover it up with makeup without understanding how to take care of your facial regime can possibly create an unhealthy skin cycle.  An unbalanced diet or an unhealthy lifestyle can heavily impact the condition of your skin.

Skincare routine

Always start your routine with a product that gives you skin benefits your skin type requires. There are various products that work excellent on different skin types and a new product that personally love is proudly South African and Durban branded soap called Soapsbyzandy. The line has an array of amazing skincare products with lovely scents along with super hydrating & skin smoothing ingredients. The line has a variety of soaps, foaming sugar scrubs, bubble baths salts plus much more for your desires & pleasure.

Start your skincare routine with Eucerin Even Pigment Perfector. I’ve been using the Eucerin Even Pigment Perfector range due to its perfection for all skin types.

*Step 1* Cleansing Toner.

I start my Eucerin Dermato clean 3 in 1 Micellar Cleansing Toner get rid of any excess oils, appearance of congestion on the skin & also target post- inflammation using a cotton pad.

*Step 2* Dual Serum.

Apply the Anti-pigment Dual Serum to hydrate the skin after toning to help the skin stay renewed, even and radiant. The Dual serum has a combination of two effective ingredients such as- Thiamidol & Hyaluronic acid. These serums are effective & are clinically proven to reduce dark spots & proved effective moisturizing substances.

*Step 3* Eucerin Day Cream

I use Eucerin Day Cream with the SPF30, which keeps the skin effectively moisturized & works to aid the skin from the sun.

*Step 4* Eye cream

Use the hyaluron filler +volume left eye cream under the eye to plump up deep wrinkles, bad under eyes, bags and firm skin in the delicate area while protecting all skin types from the sun. The hyaluron filler + volume lift eye cream also has an SPF of 15 which makes it very effective.

*Step 5* Night Cream

The night cream helps by regenerating skin cells after a long day in the sun, even after wearing makeup all day. The night cream works to keep the skin hydrated during the night. It contains Thiamidol as well as Depanthenol which assists in reducing dark spots, blemishes and prevents their reappearance.

The impact of food for your skin?

How you treat your skin, what you eat & the lifestyle you live doesn’t just impacts the future of your skin and what you see in the mirror in 10 to 30 years from now. Everything you eat is used by the body to feed your cells and therefore have a huge impact on the condition and quality of your skin.

Foods with a positive impact on your skin:

Lots of water, dark chocolate, natural or greek yoghurt, red & green vegetables plus fruits, lean on good quality protein (chicken, beef, turkey etc),kidney beans, eggs & organic foods.

Negative foods for your skin:

Dairy, caffeine, sugary foods, processed goods, crisps, fried food, hydrogenated fats, excess salt & alcohol.
