5 Essential Skin Care Hacks That Should Be Part of Your Daily Routine
Changes in weather means it’s time to switch up your skin care routine. Humidity and dry air can drastically affect our skin, hair and body. Making a few subtle tweaks is all you need to keep your routine working for you. Adding a topical numbing cream to your medicine cabinet is just one way to combat any pain associated with skin irritation and redness.
Here are five essential skin care hacks you should add to your daily routine:
1. Protect your skin from the sun
UV rays can damage you skin no matter what type of weather. Using sunscreen everyday is the best way to protect our skin against harmful UV rays. The sun’s rays are said to account for more than 80% of visible aging and wrinkles so choosing a sunscreen with at least SPF 30 is your best defence. Zensa Hack* Forgot to apply sunscreen? Zensa is the best numbing cream to help treat the pain caused by sunburns.
Prolonged sun exposure in the summer can leave our skin vulnerable to sunburns which cause dry, irritated skin. Zensa Healing Cream is loaded with all natural ingredients like aloe and calendula that reduce redness and itching and speed up the healing process after a sunburn. *Zensa Hack: Store your healing cream in the fridge to help keep your body cool when applying after a sunburn.
2. Switch to a cream blush and waterproof eyeliner.
Powder blushes wear off easy with sweat and high energy activities. Switching to a cream blush and waterproof eyeliner have better staying power to help you look flawless all day.
3. Use a facial mist
Pollution, dry air and changing of the seasons are all factors that cause dry skin. Spritz your skin back to life with a refreshing facial mist. Not only is it refreshing but it will help give your skin the extra moisture it needs so you can conquer your day.

4. Exfoliate and moisturize your body
Exfoliating is one of the best ways to help keep your skin soft and smooth year-round. Try using a sugar scrub once a week, they are great for your skin and easy to make at home with a few simple ingredients. Using a paraben free lotion or moisturizer with all-natural ingredients like Zensa Healing Cream will keep your skin soft and silky all year long.
5. Invest in a good primer
Adding a primer to your make-up routine is the best way to prevent make-up from sliding off your face during sweaty summer months. And it will also keep you looking fresh (and not dried-out) during the winter months. Primer will help fill in your pores and lines, while forming a protective barrier between your skin and the elements, to help your make-up look flawless.
