1. Important Prep Step: Toner

Long gone are the days where toners where packed with harsh, skin-stripping chemicals. [Not here anyway!]. If you choose your formulation wisely, toning your skin will really amp up your regime, helping to keep your skin hydrated and protected from environmental stressors, while getting it perfectly prepared so the rest of your skincare products can do their job more effectively. 

You Need: Diamond Toner which is packed with glycerin for hydration, vitamin C to fight free radical damage and nutrient-rich coconut oil to lock all that moisture and goodness in. Not only that but Diamond Toner also removes harsh minerals found in hard tap water to help your skin maintain an ideal pH balance. We call it the ideal secret weapon for supercharging your morning and nighttime routine!

2. The DIY Facial: Clay Mask

The simplest thing like a weekly face mask is a great way to target a whole variety of concerns you may have with your skin. Depending on their ingredients, face masks are awesome for dealing with dryness, dehydration, dull skin, excess oil, enlarged pores, even hormonal breakouts. Basically, if you’ve got a bit of a skin niggle, a face mask will always have your back.

You Need: Natural Element Clay Mask. One of the newest members of the HIGHBORN range, our Natural Element Clay Mask contains a gorgeous blend of green and white clays to draw out impurities, plus hyaluronic acid and botanical oils to hydrate and moisturise. It’s the perfect glow-getter to add to your weekly (or more!) ‘me-time.’ Even better news? They require zero effort! Just make sure you apply your mask to clean skin so you’re not forcing it to sit on a layer of grime.

3. Supercharger Beauty Serum

It always surprises us when we hear customers are yet to incorporate a beauty serum! And we believe it should absolutely be part of any basic skincare routine.

You see, serums have a much smaller molecular structure than your moisturiser for example. They are specifically designed to penetrate deeper into your skin, getting active ingredients right where they're needed.

Rough, dull skin, dark spots, fine lines and wrinkles? With the right serum you will quickly see and feel improvements in your skin you never thought were possible!

You Need: Pre-Eminent Beauty Serum which is packed with hydrating and plumping hyaluronic acid, age-defying vitamins C and E, and so much more to instantly brighten, soften and smooth your complexion.

4. Revitalise Your Eyes

When it comes to the skin on your face and body you need to know it’s not created equally. The skin around your eyes, for example, is much thinner than the rest of your face. It’s more fragile and contains fewer sebaceous glands which makes it more prone to dryness, tiredness and ageing. Combine all this with repetitive muscle movement from squinting and laughing and it's no wonder your eyes need a little extra TLC.

Your usual moisturise will likely not cut the mustard and may even cause irritation. Opt for a specific eye treatment that’s formulated to care for and strengthen this delicate area. Ingredients like aloe vera, vitamin E, green tea and arnica are fabulous ingredients to look out for.

You Need: Imperial Eye Gel which works tirelessly to target the visible signs of ageing around your eyes. Think puffiness, fine lines, dark circles, dryness, the works.

5. The Icing On The Cake ...

If there’s one product you can count on to help rebuild your skin’s natural barrier function and help the rest of your skincare keep your skin strong, moisturised and resilient, it’s a facial oil. 

Facial oils supplement the natural oils in your skin. Not only do they help balance overactive sebaceous glands, but they also boost underactive ones to stabilise the skin and keep it moisturised and protected. Clever stuff, don’t you think? 

You Need: Organic Age-Defying Facial Oil. If you’re yet to try our exquisite facial oil, you need to get on the case, right now. Packed with no less than 20 organic oils it’s rich enough to offer intense hydration and environmental protection, yet light enough to suit all skin types – yes, even oily. Try it morning and/or night, over your moisturiser for the ultimate boost to your regime.
