WHAT IS THE BEST SKINCARE ROUTINE FOR DULL SKIN?






WHAT IS DULL SKIN?

When we say skin looks dull, we’re referring to that grey, ashy tone complexions can adopt when dead cells cling to the surface, preventing light reflection. The ageing process and unhealthy lifestyle habits can also contribute to lacklustre skin. Read on for top tips on skincare for dull skin and the best products to brighten dull skin. 


WHAT CAUSES DULL SKIN?

Dullness occurs when the surface layer of the skin is unable to reflect light. This happens when dead skin cells are not removed properly, and so build up and stick to the surface. Lack of sleep, stress, dehydration, and dry skin can also be why skin looks dull. 


HOW TO TREAT DULL SKIN?

Exfoliation, either physical or chemical, is the best dull skin treatment and secret to glowy skin. This process gently removes the dead cells from the skin’s surface, allowing skincare for dull skin to penetrate more easily and for light to reflect and achieve that much talked about ‘lit-from-within’ glow. 


A FINAL NOTE ON DULL SKIN

When it comes to boosting radiance, it’s all about skin-sloughing exfoliants, such as AHA and BHA acids, that work together to gently break the bonds that allow dead skin cells to remain on the surface. Once the skin is clean and decongested, skincare can penetrate and work more effectively. Meaning that your vitamin C boosting serums, we love Caudalie Radiance Serum, and skin plumping moisturisers, try Sunday Riley’s C.E.O. Vitamin C Rich Hydration Cream, can get to work to brighten and smooth.
