The Ritual

The best routine is the one you actually do. These five minutes turn skincare from a chore into a small daily ritual. Pick the steps that fit your morning or evening.

Morning: wake up and de-puff (2 minutes)

1. Cleanse. Wash with your usual gentle cleanser and pat dry.

2. Cool. Glide a chilled ice roller or ice roller mould up and out from the center of your face for 1-2 minutes. It's a quick, refreshing way to wake up tired-looking skin.

3. Moisturize and protect. Finish with moisturizer and a broad-spectrum sunscreen.

Evening: unwind and glow (5 minutes)

1. Cleanse. Remove makeup and the day.

2. Apply serum or oil. A few drops give your tool a smooth glide.

3. Massage. Use the gua sha stone at a flat angle, sweeping up and out along your jaw, cheeks and brow. Or use the red light face wand for 3-5 minutes per area, a few evenings a week.

4. Rest. Sleep on a satin pillowcase for less tugging on hair and skin overnight.

Once a week: reset

Clean your makeup brushes in seconds with the electric brush cleaner. Clean brushes are kinder to your skin.

A few tips

Introduce one new tool at a time, start gently, and stop if anything feels uncomfortable. If you have a skin condition, check with your dermatologist first.
