How to adapt your skincare regime to the ‘new normal’
New habits from frequent hand washing and sanitising, to wearing face masks inside shops and on public transport, applying less make-up and getting ‘Zoom-ready’ for video calls, mean we have had to adapt our skincare regimes to the ‘new normal’ of 2020.
THE NO MAKE-UP LOOK
During lockdown, many people opted for the ‘no make-up look’ whilst they worked from home. This ‘new normal’ of wearing less make-up has encouraged people to pay more attention to their skincare regime to create a natural radiant glow.

FACE MASK FRICTION
Whether you are on public transport, out shopping or if it is compulsory for work, wearing a face mask for a long period of time can have an effect on your skin causing irritation or breakouts.

This innovative organic and vegan face mask is scientifically crafted with probiotic minerals essential for skin repair. Infused with Damask rose and Lavender, this powerful anti-ageing mask will help to boost collagen, diminish wrinkles and restore firmness. Magnesium helps to address inflammation of the dermis that can lead to acne and rosacea. This skin smoothing treatment also features natural minerals such as zinc (to repair skin-damage), copper (to increase collagen and cellular repair) and iron (to oxygenate the skin) to rejuvenate your complexion.
Relax and soothe stressed skin with a beauty SOS treatment, such as Nourish London’s Argan Skin Rescue (30ml), £34.00. This intensely nourishing organic and vegan face oil treatment helps to soothe and repair the skin. It is enriched with Argan oil to boost suppleness, Abyssinian and Neroli oil to improve elasticity and hydrate the skin. It simultaneously repairs stressed skin, enhances natural collagen and provides protection from further damage.

Make sure you pay special attention to your neck area to prevent a ‘Zoom neck’ – an aching neck caused by poorly positioned and excessive video calls. Invest in a firming neck cream, such as Nourish London’s T.S.L. Tighten, Sculpt and Lift Neck Elixir (30ml), £23.50. This nourishing organic and vegan neck cream has been specially formulated to lift and firm the neck.
