Skin care specialist in Sidmouth shares top tips

As an experienced skin care specialist in Sidmouth, I often get asked by clients to share my favourite skin care tips.

And as an official Ambassador for Dermaviduals skin care products and a recognised Centre of Excellence in Devon, I have a number of recommendations to help clients maintain their very best skin.

It is important to remember that everyone has different skin, and it is vital to understand the specific daily needs and requirements of yours.

Some of my top tips for maintaining optimal care of your skin include: 

• Always be gentle and kind to skin with a simple daily routine.

• Being consistent with skin care is vital.

• Have a basic skin care regime that includes a cleanser, a moisturiser and an SPF.

• You may wish to add in other products such as eye creams, serums, toners and face masks but the critical three products above are the starting point for all good skin care.

• It is also important not to be over-zealous with skin cleansing, or to use skin care cleansers that contain surfactants as these will strip natural oils from the skin and reduce the natural barrier.

I always advise clients visiting my Sidmouth skin care clinic to think in terms of cleansing rather than washing their skin and to use warm rather than hot water.

Face scrubs are usually too harsh on the skin, so do not use anything too abrasive. Exfoliating with enzymes is more gentle and yet more effective.

I have been an advocate for Dermaviduals skin care products for many years, and use their products for all of my facial treatments in Devon.
