Are you in your 30s or beyond and looking to take better care of your skin?
You’re not alone! As the years go by, our skin needs a little extra TLC to stay healthy and radiant. However, the world of skincare can be a maze of myths and misconceptions. We’re here to set the record straight and guide you toward a skincare routine that suits your unique needs. Plus, we’ll introduce you to our range of skincare products that are designed with you in mind.
Myth 1: Natural Products Are Always Best
Natural products have a certain allure, but the truth is, not all-natural ingredients are suited for every skin type. Just because something is natural doesn’t mean it’s automatically better for your skin. What’s crucial is finding products with ingredients that address your specific skincare concerns. Our skincare range combines the best of nature and science to provide you with effective and safe solutions for your skin.
Myth 2: Sunscreen Is Not Needed in Winter or Indoors
Here in Auckland, we’re blessed with lots of cloudy and cold days, but that doesn’t mean you can skip sunscreen during Winter or when you’re indoors as well as of course, the sunny days in Summer. Harmful UV rays can penetrate clouds and windows, causing skin damage and premature aging. Our range includes lightweight, broad-spectrum sunscreens that protect your skin all year round, even on cloudy days.
Myth 3: Oily Skin Doesn’t Need Moisturiser
Contrary to popular belief, oily skin still needs hydration. In fact, using a moisturiser can help balance oil production and prevent your skin from overproducing oil to compensate for dryness. O Cosmedics rebalance moisturiser and O Cosmedics SPF30 are oil free and light weight that are perfect for oily or more problematic skin with excess sebum production.
Myth 4: The Stronger the Products, the Better the Results
When it comes to skincare, more isn’t always better. Harsh and strong products can strip your skin of its natural oils and leave it vulnerable to damage. Our range includes products with carefully balanced ingredients that are gentle yet effective. We believe in the power of consistency and a well-rounded skincare routine rather than relying on strong, potentially harmful products.
Myth 5: SPF Is Enough in Makeup
While makeup with SPF is a good start, it’s typically not enough to provide adequate sun protection. You’d need to apply a significant amount of makeup to achieve the stated SPF, which isn’t practical. Try a lightweight sunscreen or tinted sunscreen that can be comfortably layered under makeup, ensuring your skin is shielded from the sun’s harmful rays.
If you’re looking to take your skincare routine a step further and address deeper skin concerns, consider either our BBL treatments, or our MOXI laser treatments, which can help enhance your skin’s texture and radiance by targeting issues like fine lines, pigmentation, and sun damage.
Myth 6: Tight Skin is Clean Skin
That squeaky-clean feeling you get from harsh cleansers might seem like your skin is as clean as it can be, but it’s actually a sign of over-cleansing. Stripping your skin of its natural oils can lead to irritation and dryness. Some gentle cleansers can effectively remove dirt and makeup without compromising your skin’s natural balance.
In Auckland, where the climate can vary, and lifestyle can be active, taking good care of your skin is essential. That’s why our cosmetic clinic can offer you a range of skincare products that are gentle, effective, and suitable for all skin types.
