Why Cleanse, Tone & Moisturise?

“Cleanse, Tone & Moisturise twice a day.”

I’m sure you’ve heard beauty experts say this time and time again. But, why is it important and how does it affect your makeup?

One thing I learned working on film sets is that makeup doesn’t stay on well if your face isn’t cleansed, toned & moisturised. Either it slides off or gets sucked in, eventually disappearing. Both scenarios can leave you looking older and more tired (scary, I know 😮).

As I often tell my celebrity clients:

Cleansing, toning & moisturising can remedy this frustrating problem by adding all-important hydration to your skin. This easy process stops parched skin cells from drinking up makeup. And it helps makeup stay in place, which enhances your features and allows you to look more youthful.

Adding Good Vibes To Your Cleanse, Tone, Moisturise Ritual

Now you know why cleansing, toning & moisturising is important for your skin & makeup, let’s look at how this simple ritual can enhance your day and make you feel good.

Did you know that everything you do either adds to, or subtracts from, your energy? This is why consciously adding intention to your actions can enhance your vibe.

Here’s one way you can add good vibes to your cleansing, toning, moisturising ritual, which is best done morning and evening.

Cleanse

In the morning, cleanse to remove dead skin cells and hydrate your skin. At night, nourish your skin by cleansing to remove all the dirt and grime it’s collected throughout the day. Added bonus: this generally makes you feel good and look fresh.

Considering that feeling good is the best way to manifest anything, I recommend adding an intention to this simple process, such as: As you cleanse your face, see yourself gently washing away any stale energy, outdated thoughts and anything else you no longer need in that moment.

Tone

Now your face is clean and you’ve washed away old energy, it’s time to embrace your toner. Much more than a tool to balance skin pH, you can use a toner to boost your good vibes. When applying, see a sparkling light pass through your skin, then your entire body. Allow this light to guide you through your day or night ahead.

Mositurise 

This is where you take a moment to feed and hydrate your skin. As you use the moisturiser, notice how it glides on and flows over your beautiful face. Hold the intention of living in the moment and being open to opportunities that nourish your body, mind, spirit.

My friends… please remember that when you set the intention to feel good, it’s up to you to tap into this vibe by consciously choosing thoughts that make You feel good. After all, the Laws of Attraction and Manifestation respond to our FEELINGS.

Bonus Practical Tips

Cleansing: Use a face cloth or wiper pad when cleansing, as sticking your face directly under the shower can enhance broken capillaries (little red veins on your face).

Toning: I prefer to spritz my toner where possible. Look for one that has no alcohol, as your skin will be happier this way.

Moisturising: Only use an SPF Moisturisier during the day. Using it at night will only cause the SPF to sink into your skin at a time when it’s not needed, inhibiting your skin’s ability to nourish, repair and look fresh when you wake in the morning. Night Creams can be a good choice for this reason.
