Time Saving Skin Heroes
Some of my favourite skincare products can be adapted to be multi-use. Saving time is high on my agenda and from chatting to our Katherine Daniels community, it's high on yours too. From busy workdays to hectic weekends and even travelling a little lighter. Are your favourite skincare products stepping up to save you time and space?
Let them step up and be counted as a ‘multi-tasker.’ Not all heroes are living and not all hero’s wear a cape. It seems some hero’s hang out on your bathroom shelf!!
Here are my top multi-tasking skincare heroes.
If these are your go to Katherine Daniels favourites, give them a try in a different way.
Essential Miracle Cleansing Jelly
Intended use: High performance cleansing for all skin types. It's hyper effective on longwear and waterproof make-up.
Multi-tasking use: As a treatment mask, thanks to the soothing, nurturing anti-inflammatory ingredients. It's ideal for your face, neck and décolleté. And it soothes sun kissed skin on your face and body too.
How to use: For your face, spread evenly across your skin or areas ‘kissed’ by the sun. Leave to act for 10-15 minutes. Then massage over your skin, emulsify with water and remove once its turned into its milky phase. You’ll have cleans skin and all traces of SPF… gone!
Intended use: An SOS concentrate which ignites the youth mechanisms of your skin. It’s a high performance, potent cocktail of ingredients.
Multi-tasking use: As an after sun treatment. The ignition of your youth proteins (collagen and hyaluronic acid) encourages the heal and repair process of your skin. If you’ve spent the day in the sun or even the wind, you’ll need this.
How to use: Spread evenly over your skin or areas ‘kissed’ by the sun. Leave to absorb for 5 minutes. Massage in the remainder of the product, adding more if needed. Remember to include your eye area and lips too.
Intended use: A weightless coat of ‘skin’ armour, totally undetectable. UVA & UVB, blue light and pollution protection with skin DNA defence and repair enzymes. Suitable for the most sensitive skin.
Multi-tasking use: As a make-up primer, to keep your foundation in place all day and all night long. It blends superbly with our Pure Pigment Foundation Drops, allowing your skin to look like your skin (but better).
How to use: As your final coat of skin armour in your morning routine. The best weather protection comes from an SPF (think cold or hot temperatures). If you’re using it as a make-up primer, apply it in the same way and then apply your chosen make-up base.
Intended use: A treatment mask which leaves your skin plump, supple, hydrated and comforted. A creamy texture, apply it like a traditional mask. Leave it to sink into your parched skin and work its magic.
Multi-tasking use: Your skin is most parched after a day in the elements. Wind, rain or shine. High temperatures or low. This mask is like a faithful friend; always there for you and will always do their best for you! Remember to treat the back of your hands too!
How to use: You can leave it for 10-15 minutes before rinsing off, but why do that when you can pop it on before bed and let it work its magic. You sleep - it works. A quick rinse in the morning, you’ll feel the cocooning residue slip off your skin, revealing nourished, hydrated skin. Perfect as an après sun solution.
Intended use: A body balm to rapidly bestow the beauty back to your parched, dry skin.
Multi-tasking use: This will be the best body aftersun balm, that you will ever use. Your skin will be hydrated and comfortable and your tan will last longer. There’s no greasy or sticky residue. We know you don’t have time to hang around. Use it all over your body and dress immediately. Or use it throughout the day as a hand cream. It packs a powerful punch against the drying effects of hand sanitisers.
If you need to create a sun kissed look for your legs, add a couple of drops of Pure Pigment Foundation Drops and massage into your skin for an even tanned look (and no smell of self-tan)!
How to use: For all occasions and all areas, massage into clean dry skin.
We’re always thinking of new ways to make our award winning products work hardest for you. If you’ve found a new way to use any Katherine Daniels product, drop us a line, we would love to share them!!
