Why You Should Revamp Your Morning Skincare Routine

Layer Your Skincare

After your skin has been cleansed, the layering magic begins. The common rule with skincare is to start with your lightest textures first, so any oils, essences or serums are the next step. We’re loving the Vitamin C Ester Brightening Serum. Vitamin C can be very potent depending on its form, and this serum is formulated with Vitamin C Ester, which is a less irritating, but more potent form. Regular usage of this serum delivers a brighter, more even-toned complexion, while also hydrating and firming skin. Its light citrus fragrance is sure to help you have a relaxing, wonderful morning.

Did you know that the skin on your neck and chest show signs of aging sooner than your face? So, if you aren’t using a neck cream that can help minimize signs of aging, you should be! The Neuropeptide Firming Neck & Chest Cream is a rich, yet lightweight cream that visibly improves signs of aging on your neck and chest.  Neuropeptides are scientifically formulated messenger molecules that enhance skin suppleness and  elasticity, so this cream can work deep into the skin to target fragile, sagging skin. Our favorite thing about this cream? It also has broad spectrum SPF 25 to give you protection on an easily-forgotten area of the body. Don’t leave the house without this cream!

After prepping the skin, adding skincare-friendly makeup products like the No Makeup Foundation and No Blush Blush is the perfect way to dress up your look without using heavy, pore-clogging makeup. No Makeup Foundation is a mineral-based formula with SPF 30 that effortlessly blends to conceal and correct, while also giving you a dewy, radiant glow. No Blush Blush is a universally flattering self-adjusting shade that also uses DMAE to help improve compromised cheekbone architecture. These two products will leave you with a youthful, rosy and radiant glow to start every day.

Don’t Forget Your Supplements

Another element to Dr. Perricone’s wellness philosophy is targeted nutritional supplements. We have two staples that help to round out your new and improved morning skincare routine. The first is the Skin and Total Body Dietary Supplements. These supplements are a perfectly dosed program of nutrients to support the immune system, improve cognitive skills and also enhance the look of your skin. Each packet contains supplements that support bone and join function, fight free radical damage and stimulate healthy hair and nails. On top of that, they also help to diminish the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles for an overall glowing appearance.  

The other supplement we can’t live without is the Omega 3 Supplement. Whether you aren’t a fish-eating fan or are simply lacking in Omega-3s, these supplements are for you. A diet that is rich in Omega-3 has benefits that can be seen at the cellular composition level. It suppresses appetite, boosts metabolism and helps burn stored fat and as you take these supplements regularly, your cells will change and your skin will become more naturally radiant and firm. Our favorite benefits of these supplements are that they hydrate skin from the inside out, and also help to hydrate acne-prone skin and counteract the drying effects of many acne treatments!

Whether your morning skincare routine needs a complete overhaul or just a few minor adjustments, implementing elements of the Perricone MD philosophy are sure to help your skin from the inside out.
