In the beauty world, getting glowing skin comes top of many a list of skincare goals. But what do we really mean when we say glowing skin? Glowing skin looks healthy, radiant and has that ‘lit from within’ look. It’s well hydrated, looks even toned and has a smooth texture.
So, how do we achieve it? Read on to discover our best skincare routine for glowing skin, glowing skin tips and how the Liz Earle Glow range can help you get the luminous skin you’re looking for.
Why a consistent routine is key for glowing skin
Change doesn’t happen overnight. On average, the turnover of new skin cells is 28 days so when you start to make changes to your skincare routine with the aim of achieving glowing skin, it will usually take around 28 days for changes to start to take effect.
Plus, once your skin has started to get its glow, you’ll need to stick to your routine to make those changes last over time.
Morning skincare routine for glowing skin
1. Cleanse
Start your routine with Cleanse & Glow™ Transforming Gel Cleanser. The deeply cleansing formula transforms from a luxurious gel to a lightweight oil, to remove SPF, dirt, pollutants and make up before rinsing off as a skin-softening milk. Formulated with acerola cherry, rich in fast-acting, brightening vitamin C, it helps to reveal luminous, glowing skin.
2. Tone and exfoliate
Smooth & Glow™ Exfoliating Tonic evens the appearance of skin tone, supports surface cell turnover and hydrates your skin without irritation. It’s packed full of prickly pear – a powerful, naturally derived, brightening exfoliant.
3. Apply a serum
For a healthy looking glow, apply Restore & Glow™ Instant Radiance Serum, a lightweight, multi-action serum that instantly brightens and smooths skin, whilst providing all-day hydration.
4. Follow with moisturiser
Once your serum has absorbed, use Revitalise & Glow™ Illuminating Gel Moisturiser, enriched with prickly pear, acerola cherry and sea buckthorn, to hydrate, exfoliate, brighten and smooth
5. Sun protection
To help protect your skin from sun damage, make sure you complete your morning routine with SPF. Healthy looking skin = glowing skin!
Night skincare routine for glowing skin
1. Double cleanse
For your nighttime routine, consider double cleansing for a deep clean . Use Cleanse & Glow™ Transforming Gel Cleanser to remove impurities, then follow up with your Liz Earle cleanser of choice to help fully refresh the skin. Discover your perfect cleanser combination to get started.
2. Tone, exfoliate & apply a serum
Follow steps 2 and 3 from your morning routine – applying Smooth & Glow™ Exfoliating Tonic helps prepare your skin for serum application and Restore & Glow™ Instant Radiance Serum can be applied morning and evening to grow your glow.
3. Follow with a night cream
Formulated with lavender flower extract, rich in natural AHAs and polyphenols, Revitalise & Glow™ Radiance Reveal Night Cream supports skin’s natural nighttime renewal process, so you can awaken to more radiant-looking skin.
Tips for maximising results
As well as sticking to a consistent skincare routine, there are some glowing skin tips you can follow to help maximise the effects of your glowing skin routine – lifestyle tweaks can be the key to unlocking a longer lasting glow.
- Hydration & nutrition
- Sleep & relaxation
- Exercise
- Avoid alcohol & smoking
Healthy skin needs good hydration, so make sure you’re drinking between six to eight glasses of water a day (this can also include sugar-free drinks like tea and coffee). A healthy, varied diet can also help – making sure you get a good balance of vitamins and minerals like vitamin C, zinc and selenium.
Ensuring you get plenty of sleep, plus helping to minimise stress can help keep skin in good condition – and that all important glow.
Keeping active helps to improve blood flow to the skin’s surface, which, you guessed it, means more of a glow. Exercise that increases your heart rate, such a dancing or running, is best for this, but if you’ve not exercised for a while, make sure you talk to your GP before trying anything new.
As well as the overall impact on your health, consuming alcohol and smoking can both impact skin – including hydration levels. Avoiding or minimising smoking and drinking alcohol can help with the appearance of skin health.
