A Simple Skin Care Routine to Start With
Start with cleansing, moisture, and sun protection, without filling a shelf with products.
A little knowledge. A better starting point.
Does skin care have to be expensive?
No. The American Academy of Dermatology describes a simple starting point: cleansing, moisturizing, and sun protection. A long product list is not a requirement. Read the AAD guide to skin care on a budget.
Does “natural” automatically mean safer?
No. An ingredient’s origin alone does not tell you how safe a product is. Read the full label, including instructions and warnings, rather than relying on the claim on the front. See the FDA’s cosmetic safety guidance.
What is one useful makeup hygiene habit?
Keep makeup for your own use rather than sharing it, and wash your hands before applying it. The FDA also recommends keeping containers clean and closed between uses. Read the FDA’s practical safety tips.
