SEVEN STEPS TO A BEAUTIFUL SKIN:

1. Cleanse the face only once a day in the evenings - excessive cleaning disturbs the pH balance of the skin. Rinse the face in the morning with clean water and a dash of Rooibos tea which is rich in antioxidants

2. Press creams onto the skin do not massage this is more economical, the cream is applied evenly and the skin is not stretched

3. Apply moisturiser often during the day - even over make-up

4. Sun Block forms part of the daily skincare routine. It protects not only against the sun but also against the dehydrating effect of the wind, air conditioning, cold weather and radiators

5. Apply Toner or Freshener after creams have been applied so that the skin can absorb the nutrients from the creams before the pores are closed

6. Foundation should form part of the skincare routine. It helps to prevent dehydration of the skin

7. Use powder sparingly as some powders can dry out the skin
