Detoxing your skin starts within, it starts with great choices. Choosing healthy meals over takeout, drinking enough water, and being careful about the products you use. But there is a quick way to rid your skin of dirt and toxins, too. A skin detox is necessary when you live a crazy life. When stress, pollution, and weather have taken their toll. So, this four-step skin detox is the perfect routine for you!

0:00 – 1:00 minute: PREPARE 

STEP 1: Start your skin detox regime with a splash of cold water and one minute of gentle facial exfoliation. You need a device that is fast and effective, like the FOREO Luna Mini, to really kick-start this detox. The genius T-Sonic pulsations in the device remove 99.5% of dirt, oil, makeup and dead skin cells, so it’s the perfect way to detoxify your skin. It only takes a week for the results to show!

1:00 to 5:00 minutes: DETOX YOUR BODY

STEP 2: After exfoliating your face, step into the shower and detox your body. Alternating between warm and cold temperatures is good for shrinking pores and boosting your blood flow, which helps with detoxifying your skin.

Look for exfoliators that include natural antibacterial ingredients. Herbivore Coco Rose has Moroccan rose, which has been refined with antibacterial and astringent properties and perfect for detoxing the whole body! Buy it here.

5:00 – 6:00 minutes: REFRESH 

STEP 3: Give your face a quick one minute cleanse with a bar of soap specifically designed for your skin. The Estee Edit has an incredible Chlorella Algae Cleansing Bar that hydrates your skin while cleansing. You can use it in the shower and take it on vacation too! Buy it here.

6:00 – 8:00 minutes: PRIME AND PROTECT 

STEP 4: Apply a serum that will give your skin a boost and protect it from environmental aggressors throughout the day. Having already removed all the dirt and grime, you need something that’s natural and hard-working. Youth To The People’s Age Prevention Serum is the perfect detox serum, take a couple of minutes to massage it into your skin and you’re ready to take on the day. Buy it here.
