New year, new resolutions, new skin. Chisel them away somewhere in your bathroom, these are the beauty commandments.

- Go for smart packaging

Especially when using products with active ingredients, customised packaging can add value. Ingredients like vitamin C are sensitive to oxidation, so a pump bottle that doesn't let air in is a better idea than a jar. For example, the Purito Vitamin C Serum has an applicator that delivers the right dose of product, making it a super power anti-ageing serum.

- Hang on!

Fact: your skin needs 28 days to fully renew itself. So you need at least that time to see a biological effect of a product. Skin improvement takes time and discipline. Hydration is immediate: your skin immediately looks fresher and feels softer. But if you want to get rid of wrinkles or pigmentation, you need patience!

- Rely on fixed values

Glycolic acid, hyaluronic acid, aloe vera, BHA, … we know they work.

Of all the known ingredients, niacinamide is perhaps less well known. This antioxidant is extremely versatile: it protects against pollution, neutralises redness and calms the melanocytes, which in time will give you a less blotchy skin. Vitamin C is also an all-round antioxidant, collagen booster, anti-inflammatory and spot-lightening agent.

- Protect yourself against uv light every day

Sun damage is one of the main causes of premature skin ageing. Not only in summer, but all year round - sunshine or no sunshine - UV A rays pierce everywhere, right into our deepest skin layers. Sun cream is the best anti-wrinkle cream!

- Be kinder to your skin

The basis for a good skin care routine is thorough cleansing. However, avoid products that are too acidic and choose care that repairs the skin barrier.

- Use a serum

The effectiveness of ingredients is partly due to the texture in which they are used. Serums are particularly suitable because they allow for higher concentrations in a fresh texture that penetrates quickly, without leaving a trace.

Particularly suitable for the mature skin that is looking for maximum results, but young women also like to use a serum.
