23 Skincare Resolution That Are Easy To Keep In 2023
Remove Makeup Before Bed
We have said it a thousand times but it bears repeating: No matter how tired or tipsy you are, sleeping with your makeup on is never allowed. Let’s not cheat with this step in 2023.
Will Get Enough Beauty Sleep
Clocking in seven to eight hours of beauty sleep is non-negotiable if you want healthy skin and hair. Not doing so will eventually show through your skin and hair.
No More Popping Pimples
Now, we know how tempting it is to squeeze the sucker out of sight, but keeping your hands off the zit can help prevent dark spots and pitted skin. If you find it hard to give up on this habit, it’s time to make pimple patches your new BFF.
Ditch Makeup Wipes
‘Tis the time to give us those makeup remover wipes and even micellar water for that matter. Not only are makeup wipes bad for the environment, but they are also harsh on the skin. They can dry the skin out by stripping off its natural oils.
Including Active Ingredients In Our Skincare Routine
Active ingredients such as vitamin C, niacinamide, and retinols are amazing for the skin and deserve a permanent spot in your stash.
Investing In Good Quality Hair Tools
We’ll no longer be making our locks suffer with poor-quality tools. Wooden combs, boar bristle brushes, and wet detangling brushes are all in our shopping carts already.
Drinking Lots Of Water
We are pledging to set those reminders to keep hydrating ‘coz it is the best way to keep our skin healthy, no matter the weather.
Switch Up Your Skincare In Time
Don’t be clueless about the weather’s effects on your skin. Make skincare switches based on the weather on time.
Commit To Scalp Care
Healthy scalp = Happy hair. As our hair health is determined by the health of our scalp, we’ll be turning to scalp scrubs and serums to keep our scalp skin healthy and hydrated.
Keep Heat Styling To A Minimum
It’s no secret that heat styling can take a toll on hair’s health leading to split ends and frazzled locks. So we’re all set to embrace natural textures in 2023. Even when using heat styling tools, keep the heat setting from medium to low. And always use a heat protectant before going ahead with heat styling.
Balancing That Diet
This is not to say that we won’t be occasionally devouring fried foods and sweets, but we’ll try to balance it out by having a side of fruits and salads too. That way we aren’t depriving our bodies of nutrients ( or cheat foods).
Take Out Time For Massages
Tension in the muscles can make you feel more stressed which eventually shows on the face. From lymphatic drainage face massages to body massages, indulge in destressing massages at least once a week.
Switch To Chemical Exfoliators
Biding adieu to physical exfoliants and welcoming gentle chemical exfoliants is one beauty resolution we’re damn excited about. Give up on physical exfoliants and your skin will thank you for it!
Taking Care Of Those Digits
Whether it’s rough claws or chipped nail paint, we’re gonna do what’s necessary to keep our hands and feels looking fly. This involves getting regular mani-pedis.
Wearing Sunscreen Indoors Too
We’re going to slather on sunscreen even when we’re indoors ‘coz we have put our skin at risk by neglecting the importance of applying sunscreen indoors for far too long.
Wash Makeup Brushes On A Regular Basis
Makeup brushes and sponges can be brewing bacteria which can then transfer back to the skin. Clean your brushes between each use to minimise bacteria buildup.
Not Skimping On Body Care
Body care is neglected by the best of us. This year we’ll be giving the skin under our chins the care it deserves. Body lotions, scrubs, masks, and massages. Whatever it takes!
Pick Makeup Products With Skin-Loving Ingredients
Skincare-makeup hybrids are what we’ll be splurging on in 2023 because wearing makeup on your skin is only acceptable if it cares for your skin too.
Going Cruelty-Free
We’re giving our beauty routines an animal and planet-friendly update by completely banning products that don’t care for the environment or animals.
Finding That Signature Scent
Mix and layer different perfumes to find your signature scent as it is the best way to make your mark wherever you go.
Switch To Silk Pillow Cases
Buh-bye, frizzy hair! We ain’t gonna miss you after switching to silk pillowcases.
Oiling Those Locks
We’re going to make oiling those locks a weekly affair in 2023 as the beauty practice can revive dull locks and repair damaged hair.
Using Face Masks Every Week
Sheet masks are a surefire way to take your skin from dull to dewy in a matter of minutes. We’ll be treating ourselves to sheet masks once every week to keep our skin out of trouble.
Make these beauty resolutions with us and your skin will thank you for it!
