For those who don’t want a lot of steps in skincare (Btw, right there with you!) These traditional “Core 4” are perfect if you are younger say, under forty….ah, the good ‘ole days.
1. Cleanser
2. Exfoliant
3. Moisturizer
4. Sunscreen
My “Core 4” for those of us over 40, changes to
1. Physical Block Sunscreen
2. Exfoliant
3. Antioxidant/ Moisturizer
4. Growth factor
I put sunscreen first, because without it, you are wasting your money on the rest! Even if you can wear it 80% of the time on your face and chest, you will be ahead of the game.
We are always happy to review skincare with patients. I know, it’s so tempting when Cindy Crawford or Christy Brinkley is working with a handsome French Doctor to help us all look like them, but….we are here for those of you in the “real” world. 😉
