If your usual skincare products aren’t cutting it, here are some extra steps you can take…

If you’re a skincare fanatic, you’ll know just how much time and energy goes into finding the perfect combination of products for your skin.

And when that routine is no longer packing the punch it used to, or if it’s failing to control any unwanted blemishes or dullness, it can be difficult to know what to do to about it.

With that in mind, we’re taking a look at some of the reasons why your usual routine might be falling short, and giving you some tips to improve on your skin in the long-run.

From considering your hormonal health to environmental factors, here are some extra steps you can take to improve on your skincare routine…

You’re not using SPF

We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again, if you’re not wearing SPF every single day, you’re doing your skin a huge disservice.

UVB rays are always present, even when the weather isn’t amazing, meaning you should be wearing SPF all year round if you want to protect your skin in the long run. Skin damaged by UVB rays shows up in the form of dullness, pigmentation and in signs of ageing like wrinkles or fine lines.

So, if you’re struggling with any of these skin issues, wearing SPF whenever you go outside could help your skin look healthier and firmer for longer.

Your hormones are impacting your skin

When we think about skincare, we tend to only focus on products that can be applied to the surface of the skin, without looking at the full picture. But, good skin comes from within, and factors like hormones all play a part in how our skin is behaving, especially around the time of your period.

If you find your skin is different around your period, nutrition could play a part. Try to keep to a balanced varied diet, with good fats and a variety of fruit and vegetables. If you’re worried you’re not getting enough from your diet, you could try a supplement.

Cleanmarine For Women helps you to achieve good skin from within, by providing nutritional support for women, especially around the time of their period. This supplement has loads of vitamins and nutrients  including Omega 3, Vitamin D, Vitamin B6 and Vitamin B2.

Vitamin B6 contributes to the regulation of hormonal activity, while Vitamin B2 contributes to the maintenance of normal skin. Both vitamins also contribute to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue, which sounds like an ideal bonus too.

You’re not adapting your skincare routine to the weather

Different situations call for different solutions, and the same can be said for your skincare routine. Factors like the weather can impact your skin, and therefore should affect the products you’re using.

For example, in the wintertime or colder spells, your skin is prone to dryness due to the low humidity.  In situations like this, you might need to incorporate more hydrating and moisturising products into your routine. Also, tempting as it is, try not to jump into a very hot shower – this can dry out your skin. Keeping it to a warm temperature can support your skin.

Similarly, during hot weather, you’re likely to produce more sweat and sebum which could clog your pores and cause outbreaks. Using a gentle exfoliator can remove excess oil from your skin and help prevent clogged pores.

Cleanmarine For Women is an all in one multivitamin, Omega 3 and phytonutrient supplement designed to support, healthy skin energy levels , and hormone balance. Suitable from age 15-40 years. You can find Cleanmarine For Women in your local pharmacy or health store.
