Great beauty basics

Cleansing: The MOST important part of a skincare routine! But what’s the best way to get fresh and clean? In the shower, put warm water on your face to soften the skin and open your pores. Use a squirt of young & pure cleanser in your hands and apply to your face with gentle circular motions (no rubbing or scrubbing hard needed). Rinse off for fresh, squeaky clean skin

Don’t forget to clean up your act at night too. Sleeping with eye makeup on can cause problems. Mascara flakes into your eyes while you sleep and you could wake up with itchy, blotchy, infected eyes. A good reason to wash before bed!

Love your skin: Healthy, clear skin makes us feel gorgeous so here’s two great tips to help your skin glow. Drink plenty of water – have a bottle handy all the time! Get enough zzzzz’s – just think how you feel after a late night, well your skin feels like that too! Tired skin looks dull and is more likely to break out in spots so catch up on some sleep!

Many cosmetics in the shops are aimed at people over 30 who are fighting dry skin. We know young skin has different problems like pimples and blackheads so young & pure has been developed just for you! There’s no excuse for using mum’s stuff any more!

Did you know? Aloe vera is from the lily family. We use loads of this fab plant in our products as it’s really soothing and gentle – perfect for skin that suffers from allergies.
