When you’re a mom, finding time to use the bathroom in peace can feel like a struggle. Who has time for skin care?
We know you’re busy, but good skin doesn’t have to take a lot of time.
Active moms, these skin care tips are for you.
Commit to Daily Effort
Consistency is the secret to achieving the best skin care results. A few minutes of daily effort is better than spending hours trying to make up for lost time.
Commit to 10 minutes a day for your skin. Remember, those 10 minutes can take years off your appearance and reduce your risk for skin problems, sun damage, and some types of skin cancer.
Give Habit Stacking a Try
When your brain is full of soccer practice drop-offs, homework hassles, and constant bickering, it is easy to forget about skin care. You need to make skin care a habit, but starting new behaviors can be a challenge.
To help you get into a routine, try a simple trick called habit stacking. Choose an activity you’ve already established – like brushing your teeth or drinking that morning cup of coffee – and tack your skin care on. Once you do your ingrained habit, immediately handle your skin. Habit stacking makes it a breeze to start and continue a new routine.
Focus on the Basics
Moms don’t have time for sheet masks, Instagram-inspired beauty trends, and fussy skin care regimens. Your plate is already overloaded. If you don’t have much time to spend on skin care, take it back to basics.
- Cleanse: Dirt, oil, and makeup can clog pores and dull your skin. Give your skin a daily cleanse with a gentle product formulated for your skin type.
- Moisturize: Even oily skin needs a moisturizer. Moisturizing adds a protective layer to the skin, helping seal in water and keeping dirt out of your pores.
- Protect: Sun damage can dramatically age your skin. Make sure you’re using sunscreen daily to protect your skin.
