There is an awful lot of pressure in the beauty world to achieve perfect skin.
No lines.
No spots.
No pores.
No sagging.
No evidence, apparently, that you’ve actually lived a life.
We’d like to suggest a different goal:
Better.
Healthier skin.
Better hydration.
A stronger skin barrier.
A brighter, more even appearance.
Skin that feels softer.
Skin that looks alive and well cared for.
Because good skin care doesn’t have to begin with disliking what you see in the mirror.
It can begin with something much kinder:
I’d like to take better care of my skin.
And then you get started on the road to better.
Better Skin Starts With the Basics
You cleanse consistently.
It doesn’t need to be complicated. The goal is simply to cleanse your skin without being unnecessarily harsh with it. Our Pumpkin and Green Tea Cleanser is made for sensitive, dry, and normal skin and is designed to cleanse while helping the skin maintain its moisture.
You moisturize.
Your skin’s outermost layer plays an important role in keeping water in and helping protect what is underneath it. Research on the skin barrier supports the role moisturizers can play in maintaining hydration and supporting barrier function.
Our Luminescent Pearl Cream is intended for morning and evening use after cleansing and is formulated to help maintain the skin’s natural moisture and provide additional hydration.
You protect your skin from the sun.
This one really matters.
In a randomized study involving 903 adults, people assigned to daily broad-spectrum sunscreen use showed less measurable skin aging over 4.5 years than those who used sunscreen at their own discretion.
Our Vitamin E Daily Sunscreen SPF 45 is made for daily use and combines SPF 45 protection with ingredients including vitamin E, niacinamide, and hyaluronic acid.
You give your skin ingredients that support healthy-looking skin.
That doesn’t mean you need every new ingredient you hear about.
It means choosing products thoughtfully and using them consistently. Our approach combines botanical ingredients, Chinese herbal traditions, and modern skin care ingredients to support healthy, hydrated, radiant-looking skin.
You stop expecting one dramatic treatment to compensate for months (or years) of not taking care of your skin.
And, most importantly, you give it time.
Consistency Really Does Matter
There is good reason the basics keep coming up.
The American Academy of Dermatology recommends keeping skin care relatively simple: gentle cleansing, moisturizing, and daily sun protection form the foundation of a routine. They also point out that consistency matters more than having a complicated routine with lots of products.
That fits pretty nicely with something we’ve said for a long time at My Zen Skin Care:
Beautiful skin takes time.
Taking care of your skin is something you do regularly, not something you fix all at once.
That’s why we at My Zen Skin Care don’t think skin care should be about chasing perfection.
It’s about doing something good for your skin today that gives it a better chance of looking and feeling healthy tomorrow.
You just need to start taking care of the skin you have.
Get started on the road to better.
Your skin knows what to do with good care.
