Maintaining a skin routine can help keep your complexion healthy and glowing. This is especially true during Ramadan when your body loses moisture due to dehydration and reduced fluid intake.

The skin may also appear dull, lacking radiance from lack of sleep. Therefore, it is essential that we take extra care of the skin and follow a proper skincare regimen that includes natural products.

       

1. Make sure you hydrate

The first step is to hydrate. During the day, our skin loses significant amounts of water, leading to dehydrated skin. Even increasing your water intake between Suhoor and iftar is not enough, we still need skincare products, that can further hydrate and lock moisture in the skin. Using a moisturizer will not only protect the skin from losing water but will also aid in skin comfort. Our recommended picks are the Codage Mattifying Day Fluid for combination with oily skin or the Perris Swiss laboratory Active Anti-aging Face Cream for normal to dry skin.

 

2. Ensure you have a proper makeup removal or cleansing routine.

Sleeping with makeup on or not removing it properly can intensely damage the skin. To keep your skin looking radiant and youthful, properly remove your make-up and cleanse the skin.

As we sleep our skin cells regenerate, and new cells push to the surface while the old/ dead cells shed off. Makeup negatively affects this process by trapping these dead skin cells and clogging the pores, leaving a dull complexion, causing the skin to appear aged, and leading to breakouts.

Consider Double cleansing by removing makeup with the Beauty Micellar Water Make-up Remover

It is gentle enough to be used around the eyes and will not disrupt the skin’s pH. Follow it up with a cleanser suitable for your skin type.

3. Don’t forget to exfoliate!

During the holy month, make sure to exfoliate the skin at least 1 to 2 times per week. Exfoliation improves blood circulation and works well against water retention and puffiness, especially in the morning. Exfoliating the skin regularly helps clear clogged pores, and keeps your skin feeling smoother and looking radiant.

 

To keep your skin healthy and radiant during Ramadan use the You Glow Girl Shimmer Body Scrub is a luxurious body scrub that gives the skin a subtle shimmering finish, leaving your skin feeling glowing and you will feel softer and smoother than ever.

• Caffeine will stimulate blood flow and help reduce the appearance of cellulite, eczema, stretch marks, age spots, varicose veins and psoriasis.
• Demerara Sugar and Himalayan Salt will exfoliate your skin, removing dead skin, acne, whiteheads, blackheads, breakouts and other skin blemishes.

4. Let the right oils soak in

Oils are lipophilic while the skin is hydrolipidic, this means that they penetrate deep into the skin, trapping water and other moisturizing goodness in.

During Ramadan the skin can experience dryness, using oils will help to nourish and replenish dry skin. The Oil by CODAGE is a subtle mixture of 8 exceptional oils with 8 synergetic effects that is specially formulated for the body, face, and hair, its unique texture adapts itself to every need and skin type, making it a perfect part of your routine.

 

5. Use products that contain Hyaluronic Acid

Hyaluronic acid penetrates the skin and binds water to skin cells, infusing all the skin layers with moisture, while reducing and preventing fine lines and wrinkles that firm facial contours for a more youthful appearance. Our Ramadan picks would be the Perris Swiss Laboratory Mask Serum Eclat de Beaute

, a mask can be left overnight for a guaranteed repairing and plumping effect.

 

 

6. Invest in products that will Boost the skin’s radiance

The skin is the body’s largest organ and one of the most powerful indicators of what goes on in the body. During Ramadan, people often experience sleep deprivation which often leads to several undesirable skin conditions such as dull skin and sallow complexion. The best solution is to use products that will boost the skin’s radiance like the SERUM N.03 Radiance & Energy

that contains detoxifying and energizing properties to erase all signs of fatigue and relax drawn-looking features while preventing and correcting the first signs of aging.

 

 

7. Take care of your eyes

Other side effects related to lack of sleep are dark circles, puffiness, fine lines, and wrinkles. Therefore, it’s key to use a product that targets all eye-related concerns like the Active Anti-aging Eye Cream which visibly reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, soothes puffiness, and minimizes the appearance of dark circles.

 

8. Ensure you hydrate your lips

Lip care is often overlooked and the people who are fasting usually face dry and chapped lips throughout the holy month. To hydrate your lips during the day’s fast, use the Coconut Beach Hydrating Lip Balm which is natural and free from petrochemicals to hydrate.
