If I had chosen a profession other than that of a fashion stylist, I probably would have been a dermatologist. I love skin. And let's face the facts. You are your skin. It is up to you to keep it healthy throughout your life. That means treating it properly. From your forehead down to your toes, daily moisturizing is essential for healthy skin. For me personally, it is my number one priority. After all, I have to live in this skin for a lifetime and I am not losing momentum now.

It’s important to follow some key steps in caring for your skin. For one, be sure to use an SPF that contains Zinc Oxide, Titanium Dioxide or Mexoryl every single day. Only these ingredients will help prevent UVB and UVA rays (those responsible for premature aging, wrinkles and cancer) from penetrating the skin. In the summer, you can skip your moisturizer and use your SPF solo. You should also use a topical antioxidant which can help with cell turnover and to build collagen. And thirdly, the ever important retinoid product (prescription strength, please).

I am a huge proponent of visiting a dermatologist. It's your opportunity to get educated. Ask a lot of questions to learn about your exact skin type and walk away with the right prescriptions based on your diagnosis.
