We all want healthy, happy skin – right? Here are my three skincare essentials for healthy, happy skin along with my tips for three key stages of your skincare routine.
Cleanse Daily, Avoiding Harsh Products
Wash your face twice a day – once in the morning, and once before bed to keep your skin looking fabulous. Cleansing too frequently or using harsh cleansers can strip your skin’s natural barrier and trigger excess oil production.
My tips for the best cleansing routine:
- Use a gentle, professional cleanser designed for your skin type – never use hand or body soap – they’re too harsh for your face!
- Always remove your makeup before bed – sleeping in makeup blocks pores and invites breakouts.
- Avoid face wipes – they can leave residue behind and upset your skin barrier.
If you’re looking for a cleanser that is gentle on the skin, The Alumier Cleanser Range has been expertly formulated for different skin types, balancing your skin without stripping it of it’s natural oils.
Exfoliate Gently and Regularly
Exfoliation removes dull surface cells, revealing fresh, brighter skin underneath but moderation is key. Once or twice a week is perfect and you want to use something gentle on your face – step away from the body scrub, you shouldn’t never use this on your face.
My tips for exfoliating effectively:
- Avoid over-exfoliating; it can make skin red, dry, and sensitive. One or twice a week is enough.
- If you’re having regular Microdermabrasion treatments, skip home exfoliation that week.
- Swap your toners for Alumier’s MicroDerm Polish – it smooths, refines, and brightens beautifully using gentle exfoliating particles.

Moisturise + Protect Your Skin EVERY Day
Hydration is non-negotiable! Every skin type, even oily skin, needs moisturiser every day – morning and night. You also need to be using SPF every day, without fail.
My tips for keeping your skin hydrated and protected:
- Choose your moisturiser based on your skin goals: hydrating, anti-ageing, or balancing.
- Always include SPF 30–50 in your morning routine – every day, all year round.
- UV rays are present even on cloudy, winter days, and they’re the number one cause of premature ageing, pigmentation, and skin damage.
The Alumier HydraDew or HydraLight moisturisers are brilliant and you can pair them with Alumier Sheer Hydration SPF or Clear Shield SPF to complete your skincare routine.
