For low-maintenance makeup to work, it's worth adopting a low-maintenance skincare routine, too.
While Korean skincare trends and the much-hailed 12-step routines have transformed how we see skincare and how much time we invest in taking care of our skin, skincare can now be overwhelming. (Let's face it. The Ordinary is a very complicated brand.)
With this in mind, there isn't anything wrong with reverting back to the familiar three- or four-step routines. Many brands have put together simple trios for morning and night-time maintenance. Cleanse, tone, moisturise, and apply SPF during the day and then drop the SPF at night. Repeat.
