Nailing a flawless complexion is actually easier – and less expensive – than you might think. Honestly, all you need are a few basic rules to ensure your skin is glowing and you’re not looking old before your time. You don’t have to splash out on elixirs containing gold and silver, or subject your skin to aggressively harsh peels that’ll leave it looking raw for weeks. Just heed these tried-and-tested tips. They may seem basic, but it’s good to remind yourself of what your body, skin and mind need to stay in tip-top condition.

USE SUNSCREEN WITHOUT FAIL

Regularly exposing your skin to the sun could lead to dull, blotchy skin as well as wrinkles and spots. You shouldn’t protect your skin from the sun only when you’re cavorting in a bikini. Your skin is exposed to the elements when you’re just walking from the train station to your office building or while running errands outdoors, and even through the office windows. Daily incidental exposure to the sun over many years leads to the visible signs of ageing, such as fine lines and dark spots.

This rule is even more relevant in a country like Singapore, where the sun is almost always shining. Use sunscreen all day and reapply it every few hours if you’re outdoors a lot. For best results, get one with at least SPF30 that also protects your skin against both UVA and UVB rays. Your makeup should be SPF15 at least for extra benefits.
