Use hyaluronic acid<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Dr Nina explained: &#8216;Hyaluronic acid is one of the best ingredients for instant hydration \u2013 half a teaspoon is equal to three gallons of water!<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Although there are many forms available, I advise using a serum since these absorb faster and have higher concentration levels.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Apply twice daily, morning and night, to see optimum results.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Hyaluronic acid also reduces fine lines and wrinkles, assists barrier-repairing function and protects against inflammation.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p><span>2. Double cleanse&#8230;and steam<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The expert advised double cleansing, saying: &#8216;Double cleansing involves using an oil-based cleanser or balm to remove makeup, followed by a water-based cleanser to clean the skin thoroughly.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Those with oily or acne-prone skin may benefit from using gel or foaming cleansers since these work to remove excess oil and dirt.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Meanwhile, people with dry skin can opt for cream or oil cleansers that hydrate the skin but don\u2019t strip it completely.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;It is vital to choose products that correspond to your skin type as this can be one of the harshest steps in your routine.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Dr Nina revealed: &#8216;I usually steam my face before removing makeup as it opens pores and makes the entire process more effective.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;To do this, I fill the sink with hot water \u2013 and sometimes scented oil \u2013 and hover my face above it for a couple of minutes.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Remember not to wash your face with this water as it could reverse the procedure and clog your pores.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p><span>3. Avoid makeup wipes<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile she continued: &#8216;I recommend steering clear of makeup wipes as they can do more harm than good.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Most are full of chemicals that strip the skin of its natural oils, causing it to become dry and dehydrated.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Makeup wipes are also terrible for the environment \u2013 one wipe takes at least 100 years to decompose!<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Nevertheless, if you\u2019re someone who loves using them, be sure to follow with a gentle face wash.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Many people fall into the trap of removing their makeup with only a wipe then moisturising straight away \u2013 especially after a night out.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;This, however, is trapping dirt in your pores and could cause you to wake up with a breakout.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p><span>4. Don\u2019t rub your eyes<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Dr Nina continued: &#8216;We should be very gentle in our approach to eyes, whether removing makeup or applying cream.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;The skin in this area is extremely thin and the muscles are constantly working \u2013 hence it\u2019s the first part of the face to show signs of ageing.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;To remove makeup, soak a cotton wool pad with micellar water and hold over your eye for 10-20 seconds. Similarly, use a cotton bud to remove excess makeup from the lash line.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;When applying cream, using your ring finger, gently pat in a circular motion covering the eyelid and undereye area.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p><span>5. Apply SPF all year round<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The expert revealed: &#8216;Many people forget that SPF should be an evergreen product in any skincare routine.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;UV rays present themselves at the same strength, no matter the weather or season, and may result in premature ageing, pigmentation or skin cancer.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Therefore, it is vital to use a broad-spectrum SPF every day.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;I suggest using a minimum of SPF 30 to provide an efficient level of protection. It should be applied both under and over makeup.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/femail\/article-12531107\/Im-skincare-expert-5-ways-tweak-routine-autumn.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;m a skincare expert and these are the 5 ways to tweak your routine in the autumn Dr Nina Bal, from London, told FEMAIL how you should tweak your skincare\u00a0 Read more:\u00a0\u00a0Is flooding the key to PERFECT skin?
