How to Start a Skincare Routine

Starting a skincare routine can feel like trying to learn a new language. Serums? Toners? Actives? If you’re overwhelmed, don’t worry. You don’t need a 10-step ritual to have clear, radiant skin. What you do need is a solid foundation that suits your skin type and concerns. That’s where we come in.

This guide is all about simplifying skincare and giving your skin the nourishment it needs—without the fluff. And yes, you can achieve all that with just two well-formulated products from AromaSense:

Why a Routine Matters

Before we get into the “how,” let’s talk about the “why.”

  • Skipping skincare can lead to clogged pores, uneven texture, dullness, and premature signs of aging.

  • A consistent routine helps your skin repair, protect, and glow.

  • Think of it like brushing your teeth: once it’s part of your day, it becomes second nature.

Step 1: Cleanse with the Face Wash Serum (AM + PM)

Your morning and evening routine should start with cleansing. The AromaSense Face Wash Serum is a beautiful hybrid product. It gently cleans the skin without stripping it, thanks to soothing essential oils and nourishing plant extracts.

Benefits:

  • Removes dirt, oil, makeup, and impurities

  • Calms the skin and maintains moisture balance

  • Suitable for all skin types—yes, even sensitive

Massage into damp skin using upward circular motions, then rinse with warm water and gently pat dry.

💡 Tip: Over-cleansing can dry out or irritate your skin. Stick to twice a day unless you’ve had a super sweaty session.

Step 2: Moisturise with Day and Night Cream with Emu Oil (AM + PM)

After cleansing, your skin needs hydration. This luxurious cream is rich in omega fatty acids and deeply moisturising but won’t clog your pores.

Why Emu Oil?

Emu oil penetrates deeper than many other oils, delivering hydration where your skin really needs it. It’s naturally anti-inflammatory and helps calm redness, irritation, and dryness. Plus, it promotes skin cell regeneration—great for anti-aging.

Benefits:

  • Restores moisture and strengthens the skin barrier

  • Reduces the appearance of fine lines

  • Smooths dry patches and evens out skin texture

Apply a small amount morning and night after cleansing.

Optional Add-On: SPF in the Morning

While this routine focuses on just two products, we strongly recommend adding an SPF in the morning. Protecting your skin from UV damage is non-negotiable if you want to maintain your glow and prevent premature aging.

Common Concerns This Routine Helps Address

  • Dryness & Dehydration: The emu oil in the cream is incredibly nourishing for dry or tight skin.

  • Sensitivity: Both products use natural, calming ingredients and are free from harsh chemicals.

  • Uneven Texture: A consistent cleanse-and-moisturise routine helps smooth skin over time.

  • Fine Lines: Hydrated skin is plump skin. Keeping moisture levels high helps soften the appearance of wrinkles.

  • Breakouts: Many women think moisturising causes pimples, but often, dehydrated skin overproduces oil. Keeping skin balanced is key.

What Happens If You Don’t Have a Skincare Routine?

Let’s be real. Life gets busy, and skincare gets skipped. But here’s what you might notice when that happens:

  • Your skin feels tight, dry, or flaky

  • Breakouts increase due to buildup and imbalance

  • Makeup applies unevenly and doesn’t stay put

  • You notice dullness and early signs of aging

It’s not about perfection; it’s about consistency. A few minutes, twice a day, is all it takes to keep your skin looking and feeling its best.

Final Thoughts

Learning how to start a skincare routine doesn’t have to be complicated. With just two high-quality products—the Face Wash Serum and the Day and Night Cream with Emu Oil—you can cover all the basics: cleanse, hydrate, and protect.
