Skincare & Makeup Tips For Busy Moms

Skin Care for Busy Moms – I like to call this selfcare. After you find the right products for your skin, your skincare routine should take less than 5 minutes every morning and night. That’s easy enough to accomplish every day, even for the busiest moms.

3 Rules of Skin Care

Before you build your skin care routine, remember the 3 rules below.

1. Do Your Research!

The market is supersaturated with skincare products and it’s easy to get sucked into the marketing and fancy labels, ads and plugs. Take time out of your busy day one night and read up on the benefits of various products, find what fits your needs and skin type. Dermreview.com is a great resource as it isn’t about just rating skincare products. It goes into depth about every type of product there is for skin and delves into the purpose of these products and how it affects skin. It’s one of the more comprehensive sites on skincare products.

2. Don’t Skimp

Your skin takes a big beating, between lack of sleep, sun damage, makeup, and just overall wear and tear, it’s no wonder everything shows in your face when you have a rough night, day or year. Open up your purse bag on products you love and splurge a little on facials and treatments. This is a worthwhile investment for yourself. You want to invest a little time and money into your skin. Preventative work is far easier to tackle than corrective work.

3. Create Routine

Skin care products are not miracle workers. A lot of products are used to help prevent further degeneration of skin/aging. Some are there to help improve skin elasticity, texture and firmness, but all of these only take into effect after a long period of time. You have to continually use these products for it to make any difference…Find the things you struggle with or want to achieve, find the right products for it and create the right routine for yourself, every morning and night.
