As a dermatologist who’s seen it all, I’ve met patients from both ends of the skincare spectrum—from the minimalists to those with enough products to stock a small pharmacy! It's easy to get caught up in the pressure to follow complicated routines or buy every product that promises glowing, youthful skin. But here’s the truth: your skin’s needs aren’t nearly as complicated as they’re made out to be. Simplicity is not only effective but kinder to your skin barrier. When you know what skin care essentials to stick with, your skin will glow!
