The Simple Routine - Gentle Natural Skincare Basics

No serums. No actives. No ten-step routine. Just the simple, gentle basics I'd suggest, handmade in small batches with every ingredient listed, because there's nothing to hide.

1. Cleanse, morning and evening. Lotus Cleansing Gel melts the day off without leaving skin squeaky.

2. Exfoliate, 1-2 times a week. Miracle Cleansing Polish is a gentle polish for face and body, not a harsh scrub.

3. Moisturise. Lotus Light Cream is a light, nutrient dense cream for face and body. Prefer no scent? Choose Cloud Light Cream.

Then the unsexy bit. A good, varied diet, more protein in your meals, plenty of water and enough sleep. Skincare is more than what you put on your skin.
