If you haven’t heard of skinimalism, it’s exactly what it sounds like! Gone are the days when the “best” makeup and skincare routines are the twelve-step ones. We’re going back to the basics in the best way possible, freeing ourselves from the financial, environmental and logistical (and emotional) burdens of having so…many…products!
Skinimalism is typically carried out by using fewer products altogether, which can also mean using multipurpose products. To be clear, we are not advocating for the skincare equivalent of a men’s 5-in-1! When it comes to facial skincare, we only really need four products (ultra-high quality, of course); as long as we have a good cleanser, moisturizer, sunscreen and maybe a serum, we’re set!
It’s much better for your skin, pocketbook, bathroom cabinet and environmental footprint to use four multipurpose products rather than a bunch of low-quality specialty ones. So if you’re ready to level up — or pair down — your skincare routine, read on! Pick one from each category and consider your skincare routine done!
