In Real Talk this month, pharmacist Esmond Biesiek-Wright reminds us that our skincare routine in winter requires an adjustment for low humidity, wind, and cold air. Winter is when hydration and protecting our skin barrier is more important than ever. Click to read dos and don’ts from this month’s catalogue.

❄️ Use a rich, emollient moisturiser to lock in hydration and protect your skin.
💧 Stay hydrated from the inside!
👒 Wear long sleeves and a hat to shield your skin from cold, drying air.
☀️ Slather on a high SPF sunscreen to protect from the sun’s damage.
🧼 Optfor gentle cleansers that don’t strip away natural oils.

Happy Mother's Day🌸

You could well be dreading your child’s vaccination more than they are! Here’s how to talk to your kids about it:

Day before:
😃 Be open & honest about vaccinations. Explain why they’re important. Tell them they’ll feel a slight pinch or discomfort - but that they may not!
🎁 Now’s the time for rewards! What will you promise them?

Day of:
💪 Be kind & confident. Maintain eye contact, speak softly, and smile
🧸 Distract & comfort with a special toy or a song
👩‍👦 Keep them steady on your lap or holding them gently to avoid sudden movements

And afterwards:
🩹 Let them pick their bandaid!
👏 Praise your little hero!
💜 Never scold if they cry, ask how they feel, & heap the love on!

💘 Happy Valentines Day! 💘

As our skin ages, it gets drier and fine lines get deeper, partly because our bodies produce less sebum. Take note of these 6 daily skincare steps for mature skin

🤩 Cleanser: Remove makeup with a gentle cleanser that opens the pores and maximises the effectiveness of the active ingredients you are about to apply.
🤩 Exfoliate: When you remove dead skin cells once or twice a week, your skin will take on a more polished glow.
🤩 Serum: Add a serum with active ingredients, such like niacinamide and Pro Vitamin B5, to address specific skin concerns.
🤩 Moisturise: Day and night creams protect the skin barrier and lock in active ingredients, giving them a chance to work over a longer period of time.
🤩 Eyes: The delicate eye area requires special treatment.
🤩 Foundation: Let your moisturiser settle for at least 15 minutes before you apply foundation.
