If it’s not already, a moisturizer should be an essential part of your daily regime! Alongside a glass of water, juice and breakfast, a daily dose of a hydrating moisturizer is essential for starting the day at your very best.
Not only is topping up on moisture levels vital for supple, healthy-looking skin, it also ensures that your face has a protective barrier against the day’s harsh damages. This helps to prevent dryness and improve skin tone and texture whilst providing the perfect base for make-up — after all, a great skin complexion is the perfect canvas for “painting” makeup on.
