Making time everyday to take care of your skin has many benefits. The main key to success and younger looking skin however is consistency. You have to find a routine that works for you and do it every day.
Why Is A Good Skincare Routine Important?
A good skin care routine helps to keep your skin in top condition. Throughout the day you’re constantly shedding skin cells and new ones are taking their place. This is a natural skin cycle called desquamation. By having a consistent skin care routine you’re helping this process along.
The benefits of a correctly tailored skin care routine include:
• Reducing wrinkles
• Reducing acne & spots
• Slowing down the signs of aging
• Healthier skin
• Improved mental health & wellness

Consistency Is The Key To Younger Looking Skin
Having a sporadic skin care routine will have little benefit to your skin as our skin needs daily care and love. People often underestimate how much our daily actions shape our life and by completing meaningful daily rituals you can and will change your life and the way you look.
‘’A daily ritual is a way of saying I’m voting for myself, I’m taking care of myself’’ Mariel Hemingway
The good news is that it only takes 21 days for you to naturally incorporate a new routine or ritual into your daily life. That means if you set yourself a goal of completing your new skin care routine every day for 21 days after that it becomes second nature.
The power of 21 was first discovered by a psychologist & plastic surgeon named Maxwell Matz in the 1950’s. Matz discovered that it took his patients 21 days to get used to their new face. Further investigation on this matter led him to discover that it takes roughly 21 days to form a new habit, hence the power of 21.
To learn more about the power of 21 we’d recommend you read the book 21 Rituals To Change Your Life by Theresa Cheung.
