Getting facials once a month or investing in skincare is not enough to obtain the skin of your dreams!


Diligence, consistency, and patience are required to see actual results and changes in your skin.


This consistency in maintaining and treating your skin is possible through developing a solid skincare regimen.

First, I highly recommend booking an appointment with a Licensed Esthetician that can thoroughly analyze your skin and tailor a routine to obtain the desired results.


Once We've identified your skin type and your specific needs, it's time to build a daily regimen that is easy to complete and effective.


Not sure where to start? Don't worry – I'll break it down for you!


Here's the foundation of a solid and effective skincare routine, protocol, or regimen...the goal it's the same!




Step 1: Keep it clean!

Cleansing the skin is arguably one of the most vital steps in an effective skincare regimen! Daily cleansing will keep your skin in the best health possible by removing SPF, makeup, dirt, debris, excess oil, and free radicals... Going to bed without washing your face! BIG NO-NO!


Neglecting this step can worsen acne, make your skin more susceptible to infections, and exacerbate any skin issues you're experiencing. It's essential to choose a cleanser suitable for your skin type!


Dry skin? Try a gentle cleanser like GlyMed Plus's Gentle Face Wash or my personal favorite at the moment, A.M. cleansing Vitamin C Cleanser, an antioxidant-packed cleanser that promotes hydration.


If you have a combination or oily skin, you will need a cleanser to remove the excess of oil without stripping away your skin. Try GlyMed Plus's Mega-Purifying Cleanser! It will dissolve makeup, SPF, dirt, oil, and debris!



Step 2: Identify, Treat & Prevent!


Now that your skin is fresh and clean, it's time to target your skin concerns! While treatments can come in various forms, the most popular is the facial serum.


Facial serums are topical treatments with a thinner consistency that can penetrate deeper into the skin because these are formulated with a higher concentration of active ingredients, increasing the treatment's effectiveness.


If you have a particular skin concern or goal, pay attention to the active ingredients. It may feel overwhelming to navigate with so many new ingredients flooding the market!


Here's a quick breakdown of some of the most popular active ingredients on the market

Need some radiance? Look for active ingredients like vitamin C, licorice root extract, kojic acid, and arbutin. We love GlyMed Plus's Derma Pigment Skin Brightener. Brightens the skin, and reduces pigmentation and redness.


Skin looking a little flaky and uneven in texture? You may need some good exfoliation. Look for ingredients such as AHAs and BHAs. We highly recommend GlyMed Plus's Daily Smoothing Peel. Can be used 2-3 times a week.


Fine lines and wrinkles? Formulas with Retinoids, Peptides, and Vitamin C will be your best friend! GlyMed Plus's Wrinkle Remedy with Drone Technology will quickly plump up your skin and restore collagen!


Step 3: Moisturize!



Don't forget to moisturize! It's a crucial step in your routine because it will restore balance to the skin's moisture barrier and keep your skin hydrated and supple.


Even if you have oily skin, you should apply a daily moisturizer. Failing to keep your skin adequately moisturized may trigger it to produce excess oil to compensate for the lack of moisture.


Moisturizers help your skin obtain a healthy balance.

We love GlyMed Plus's Daily Repair Mega-Moisture Cream because it's suited for all skin types!


Step 4: Protect your investment!


Money is not the only thing you're investing into your skincare journey– the time you're putting into it is also a valuable asset! Why waste it? Protect your investment by protecting your skin!

Unprotected exposure to the sun is the fastest and quickest way to undo all your hard work!


The repeated exposure can take years to show up on your skin – however, It can cause the skin to take on a wrinkled, leathery appearance. Even worse? It can dramatically increase your risk of developing skin cancer. We don't want that!


UV Rays can penetrate through the clouds, So make sure that you apply sunscreen every morning before starting your day and reapply as indicated on the product label!


I recommend GlyMed Plus's Photo-Age Environmental Protection Gel 30+. This gel is infused with antioxidants to protect your skin from free radicals.


If you're looking for a moisturizer and sunscreen hybrid, we recommend GlyMed Plus's Photo Age Sunscreen 30+. Ultra-light and water-based, It will hydrate the skin and prevent it from drying out while providing excellent sun protection!


This is another list of my favorite over-the-counter SPF products:


Now that we've broken down the basics for you, it's time to start your journey to beautiful skin!


I made it sound easy, but your skin is unique. First, it's essential to know your skin to make the right choices.
