Skin Tip: Dealing With Product Overload!

Peptides! Retinol! Alpha hydroxy acids!

These are all fantastic ingredients in skincare but do you need them all once? Not necessarily.  In fact, using products with too many active ingredients all at once can result in irritated skin.  Always introduce these products slowly into your skincare regimen, use small amounts and follow your esthetician’s/docotor’s protocol on how to use them.  And, if you happen to experience product overload, stick to a basic routine: basic cleanser, basic toner and moisturizer until your symptoms subside.

Thanks for reading and have a wonderful weekend,

    • Thanks Karen. And yes, I am so guilty of this too! Shame, shame because I know better but sometimes I tend to get a bit overzealous and well, there’s the consequences. Bright side of this: I’ve figured out how to handle it when it happens. 🙂
