My Daily Routine 

 D A I L Y //
Every morning with my daughter we rinse our faces with warm water, whether its in the shower or with a damp wash cloth and then pat dry with a towel. 
 - we are washing away sweat, extra oil, last nights drool, the sleep in our eyes and occasionally snot (Mum life).  
 
I then use a facial toner followed by a daily face moisturizer with SPF in it and my daughter uses her "moisturizer" (sunscreen for kids) - simple.

We start by rinsing our faces with warm water like we do in the morning. Some nights I  use my Kangaroo Island Skincare shampoo and body wash to wash off my stubborn makeup, sometimes an oil cleanser if my rinse, pat dry and follow with a anti ageing serum and a night cream. 

Weekly skin care Routine 

I like to "try" and moisturize my body every other day or at least once a week - keeping my moisturizer on my bedside table helps!

At least once a week i like to use a face mask and exfoliate my whole body now as a busy mum its more like once every 10 - 14 days but i still like to make sure i do it regularly.

Exfoliating can be tricky to fit in, i have made a habit of exfoliating every time i shave
​
Fitting in the time to use a face mask is slightly easier i like to do it once i have washed my face in the evening, my ligurian honey and pink clay mask doesn't set so firm you cant move your face so whilst i am waiting for it to set i brush my teeth, wash my makeup brushes, or finish getting ready for bed, and it is just as easy to wash off - just dampen with a wash cloth and it wipes right off.

Tips 

• Wash off your makeup! - I know its late, you're tired, and you're already in bed. The thought of getting back out of bed to wash your makeup off is unbearable! For times like this i have makeup remover wipes and a night cream in my bedside table. 
• Moisturize -  you would think after developing my very own moisturizer i would be a little more consistent  about it but truth is i often forget, so i like to keep my moisturizer on my bedside table to remind me when i get into bed. 
• Drink enough water - if you are hydrated your skin will be to. 
• Wash your makeup brushes - dirty brushes harbor bacteria, cleaner brushes = less breakouts 
• Linen  -  Wash your sheets and towels at least once a week to remove dirt, oils and a "botanical garden" of bacteria and fungus, and if that line alone doesn't make you want to throw your sheets in the wash check out this article - Ick. 

​Keep it simple!

​It doesn't have to be extravagant, simply washing your your face and neck morning and night with water, a gentle wash or a cream cleanser designed for your face is enough to keep your skin clean and always use sunscreen - especially on your face!
