The start of a new year is the perfect time to reflect, reset, and prioritize your self-care routine. One area we often overlook? Our skin! At Barris Laser & Skincare, we’re all about helping you achieve your healthiest, most radiant skin yet. Here are six skincare resolutions to consider adding to your list for 2025:
Clean Out Your Skincare Stash
Out with the old, in with the new! Take some time to declutter your skincare shelf. Toss out expired products, half-empty bottles you never use, and anything that doesn’t suit your skin’s current needs. Simplify your routine and focus on quality over quantity. Your skin (and your bathroom counter) will thank you!
Stick With Retinoids
Retinoids can be a game-changer for smoother, clearer, and younger-looking skin—but they require patience. Don’t give up if results aren’t immediate! Introduce them gradually, moisturize generously, and protect your skin with sunscreen. Trust the process; it’s worth it.
Make Sunscreen a Daily Habit
If you’re not already applying SPF every day, now is the time to start. UV rays can damage your skin year-round, even on cloudy days or through windows. Opt for a broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF 30 and reapply as needed. Protecting your skin is the best anti-aging investment you can make.
Commit to Regular Facials
Professional facials can do wonders for your skin. Aim to schedule one every two months to deeply cleanse, hydrate, and address any specific skin concerns. At Barris Laser & Skincare, we tailor treatments to your unique needs to help you glow all year long.
Drink More Water
Hydration starts from within! Make it a goal to drink plenty of water each day. Staying hydrated helps maintain your skin’s elasticity, keeps it looking plump, and can even reduce the appearance of fine lines. Carry a reusable water bottle with you to make this habit stick.
Remove Makeup Properly Every Night
We’ve all been guilty of skipping makeup removal after a long day, but this step is non-negotiable for healthy skin. Sleeping in makeup can clog pores, cause breakouts, and lead to premature aging. Use a gentle cleanser or micellar water to ensure every trace is gone before your head hits the pillow.
Making these skincare resolutions part of your routine doesn’t have to be overwhelming. Small, consistent changes can lead to big results! Need a little extra help getting started? Book a consultation or treatment with us at Barris Laser & Skincare—we’re here to support your journey to glowing skin.
