Skincare can be confusing, no matter your age. Knowing what to buy, how often to use it and where to put it can equate to studying for a degree in cosmetic science, but as we start to age and our needs change it can be even more daunting. Although I'm personally entering a new phase of my life (and therefore skincare regime,) I know many of you are still in your 20s and just as confused (if not more so) by skincare as those of us in our 30s, 40s and 50s. With so much advice out there for those suffering with teenage breakouts or the onset of ageing, there seems to be a vacuum when it comes to your 20s; there's not enough info on what you should be doing, as well as what you shouldn't be, to ensure a healthy complexion while keeping those signs of ageing at bay for as long as possible. I've broken down my best advice for those of you fledgling and unsure what to do; I hope it helps you establish an effective skincare regime that works for you now, and in the future.
PREVENTION IS BETTER THAN CURE
The biggest thing to remember when it comes to any skincare regime, is that prevention is always better than cure. It's far easier to look after your skin from the offset than try to rectify irreversible damage, so nobody is too young for a great regime. Don't wait until you see those deep-set wrinkles or pigmentation marks before you decide to change up from soap and water - do your utmost to look after your skin from day one and you'll thank yourself in the long run.
