💚 Which ingredient is already a favourite in your routine?

You don’t need more skincare. You need the right skincare.

We’re constantly being told that we need another serum, another cream, another viral “must-have”…

But good skincare isn’t about having more products.
It’s about knowing what your skin actually needs and choosing accordingly.

So before I buy a new skincare product, there are a few GREEN FLAGS I always look for 👀

Swipe through to see what I pay attention to- and save this for the next time you’re tempted to buy a new product.

💚 GREEN FLAGS IN YOUR SKINCARE ROUTINE

My favourite GREEN FLAG 💚👇

Has your skin changed after giving birth? 👀
Dryness, breakouts, pigmentation or suddenly sensitive skin?
It might not be your skincare routine that’s the problem.

Suddenly, you may experience dryness, tightness, increased sensitivity, breakouts or pigmentation. Sometimes, it feels like the skincare products that worked so well before pregnancy suddenly don’t work anymore.

And it doesn’t always mean you need a stronger skincare product.

After giving birth, your body goes through major hormonal changes. If you’re breastfeeding, your hormonal environment remains different too, which can affect your skin.

On top of that, there’s lack of sleep, stress, exhaustion, changes in your diet and simply much less time to take care of yourself.

So your skin may become:
🤍 drier and more dehydrated
🤍 more sensitive and reactive
🤍 more prone to breakouts
🤍 more uneven in tone
🤍 dull and lacking radiance

And if, together with these skin changes, you experience severe tiredness, hair loss, paleness or other concerning symptoms, it’s worth looking at the bigger picture and speaking to your doctor.

After giving birth, prevention is key. It’s worth keeping an eye on your blood test results and checking that your body has recovered properly after pregnancy and childbirth. This doesn’t mean every mum has deficiencies- absolutely not. But it’s good to know where you stand. 🤍

As a cosmetologist, I always look at the skin as more than just a cream or serum.

Because sometimes, your skin is trying to tell you that the problem goes a little deeper.
