Essential Skincare & Tanning Tips To Unlock Radiant Skin Before 25

In the ever-evolving world of beauty and skincare, early habits set the stage for lifelong radiance and health. 

Navigating through the myriad of skincare advice, however, can feel like an overwhelming task, especially for those under the age of 25, standing on the cusp of change. 

This pivotal age marks a transition from the carefree routines of our teenage years, often characterised by minimal, if not simplistic, skincare approaches, to a more conscious and informed regimen that addresses the onset of adult skin concerns such as sun damage, age spots, and fine lines.

Belfast beauty expert Lynsey Bennett of Lusso Tan, who will be speaking at the Mums At Work Elevate Your Business conference on Monday March 25, believes the foundation of good skincare is not just about the products we use but understanding how they interact with our skin. 

She explained: “Our 20s are a critical time for establishing skincare routines that not only prevent premature ageing but also enhance our natural beauty.

“This philosophy extends beyond skincare into the realm of tanning, where the quality of one's skin can significantly impact the outcome of tanning products, leading to either a flawless golden glow or a patchy tan that falls short of expectations.”

Having a good skincare routine is vital to perfecting your tanning routine.

Here are Lynsey’s top three tips for unlocking radiant skin before you’re 25:

1. Exfoliation: The First Step to a Flawless Glow

“Nothing works without exfoliation” explained Lynsey.

“The journey to luminous skin and a seamless tan begins with the removal of dead skin cells.

"Exfoliation is paramount. It's about creating the perfect canvas for both skincare and tanning products by removing the barrier of dead cells that dull our complexion and obstruct product absorption.

“This crucial step ensures that your skin not only benefits fully from your skincare routine but also achieves that even, smooth tanned look we all desire.”

2. The Magic of Hyaluronic Acid

“Hyaluronic acid is a hydration powerhouse” said Lynsey, adding: “Hyaluronic acid has become a buzzword for hydration, but its effectiveness is dependent on the presence of moisture. 

"To truly tap into the moisturising power of hyaluronic acid, apply it to damp skin and follow up with a mist to lock in the hydration.

“This technique ensures that hyaluronic acid can draw moisture from the environment and deeper layers of the skin, leading to a plumped, smooth surface that's ideal for tanning.”

3. The Shield of SPF

“SPF is your skin's best defence” said Lynsey.

"Up to 90% of skin ageing is within your control and directly linked to sun exposure.

“Incorporating SPF into your daily routine is not just about preventing ageing; it's a critical measure against skin cancer. 

“Choosing sunless tanning as a safe alternative to sunbathing is a testament to loving your skin and prioritising its health over temporary aesthetics.”

Lynsey Bennett has built a successful brand in the competitive beauty market. Her accomplishments with Lusso Tan and her advocacy for women in business have established her as a respected figure in both the beauty and business communities. 

At the Mums At Work Elevate Your Business conference on Monday March 25, her talk, titled ‘How to keep going when nothing is going right’ will offer practical strategies for maintaining resilience and determination in the face of adversity. 

Drawing from her own experiences, Lynsey aims to equip attendees with the tools and mindset needed to navigate life’s challenges and emerge stronger.
