SKIN CARE THROUGH THE DECADES

Let's face it, we cannot stop the ageing process but we can create a healthy skin that we can be proud of make up free and beyond!

This is what we do at Skin Matrix, we live and breathe healthy complexions that are well fed, nurtured and loved. We create skin care regimes for our customers who look forward to their daily regime.

Our skin is constantly changing throughout the decades, let's embrace ageing, and every little character line that comes with it.

I have put together a sample skin care regime for throughout the decades below.

If you would like me to develop a skin care regime just for you complete our Free online skin questionnaire, the Matrix Program.

Morning

• Aspect Teen Cleanser
• Skin Matrix Hydracell Moisturiser – teens skins love this as it is water based and light on the skin yet deeply nourishes. This decade needs to focus most on keeping the skin hydrated as many under nourish their skins in fear of breaking out.

Evening

• Aspect Teen Cleanser
• Alpha-H Clear Skin Blemish Gel – use this as a spot treatment as needed. BHA’s reduce oil congestion within the pore.
• Alpha-H Clear Skin Moisturiser – this glycolic moisturiser will take care of any pore clogging that may be going on. If this is too drying for nightly use – alternate between the hydracell and this moisturiser.

Once a week: Skin Matrix AHA Exfoliating Scrub

Once a week: Cosmedix Clear Mask for acneic skins OR Alpha-H Clear Skin Blemish Mask

Morning

• Skin Matrix Balance Cleanser or Skin Matrix Deep Pore Cleanser (for acneic skins)
• Skin Matrix Skin Perfection Serum – we love this for our 20’s decade as it is the most abundant antioxidant serum we offer. Vitamin B3, C and E, hyaluronic acid, heptapeptide-8 to work on collagen (yes never too early!), pomegrante, licorice root extract, green tea leaf extract and more.
• Skin Matrix Hydracell Moisturiser or Aspect SMC Moisturiser

Evening

• Skin Matrix Balance Cleanser
• Alpha-H Clear Skin Blemish Gel – use this as a spot treatment if prone to breakouts. BHA’s reduce oil congestion within the pore.
• Cosmedix Define – this AHA vitamin A combo is great for those starting out on Vitamin A. The combination with AHA’s keeps the skin smooth, pores clean and clear and the vitamin A assists in keeping collagen production in full swing. Vitamin A also assists with cellular turnover great for post blemish marks and giving an even skin tone.
• Skin Matrix Hydracell – use this as needed ontop of the Define. Some may prefer to alternate the Define with the Hydracell

Once a week: Skin Matrix AHA Exfoliating Scrub

Once a week: Cosmedix Glow Mask OR the Aspect Probiotic Sleep Mask

Morning

• Skin Matrix Balance Cleanser
• Skin Matrix IQ Serum – let's super charge the Vitamin B3 and C in this skin protein serum that nourishes, combats acne, hydrates, soothes and is a powerful anti-ageing weapon. With collagen production declining after the age of 25 this is one you want to have in your arsenal of tricks by your 30’s. Great for pigmentation as well. I developed this one when I was pregnant with my 2nd child as I wanted a serum that was going to give me anti-ageing benefits (as I had to stop my vitamin A serum when pregnant) whilst holding my melasma – pigmentation at bay throughout.
• Skin Matrix Ultra Dry Moisturiser OR Osmosis MD Quench Plus
• Skin Matrix COQ10 Rosehip Oil – add a drop to your moisturiser for added hydration benefits – acts as a fabulous make up primer too.

Evening
