Ali Abdaal, a former doctor, now a Youtube influencer, shared the basics:<ul><li>Moisturiser: whose purpose is to rehydrate our skin & keeps the skin barrier intact. 2 times a day, ideally after the shower. </li><li>Sunscreen: stop genetic mutations caused by sun exposure. Go for a large spectrum (UV-A & UV-B) with a high SPF (30 or 50).</li><li>Retinoid: anti-aging miracle (minimise wrinkles, acne etc) by promoting growth of colagen. Not to be confused with retinoids, a weaker version.</li><li>Cleanser: Better than water for cleaning up your face. Go with one with hyaluronic acid & cermaides. </li></ul>

Basic Products for Skincare

In the morning:<ul><li>Clean up the face with a cleanser</li><li>Apply moisturiser</li><li>& sunscreen </li></ul>There are moisturisers with sunscreen protection, like 2 in 1. In the evening:<ul><li>Cleanse the face again</li><li>Apply retonid cream ... give a couple minutes to settle in.</li><li>Apply moisturiser cream. </li></ul>Voila! This basic routine should help keep your skin younger. It gives 90+% of the benefits of all the cutting-edge methods.

The basic skincare routine

So what is the perfect productive skincare routine? There are zillions of skincare products out there, from avocado face masks to LED therapy and snail-slime face creams. However, you can get 90% of the possible benefits with just 3 or 4 products, which I include in my Productive Skincare Routine.
