Hi! If I just wear suncream and no makeup for the day, do I need to double cleanse to remove the spf?

Hello @Rockstar it depends on your skin, and how it is feeling and also how often you’re reapply your SPF throughout the day. Adding to this the day you’ve had, if been in a city as pollution you made feel like you want to double cleanse. Otherwise a one step cleanse with the foaming gel or another cleanser suited would be fine for sure 💙💚

Hello! Yes you should choose a cleanser for your skin type, I recommend the Hydrating Cleansers. The SA Cleanser is a good exfoliating wash which is good if you have skin texture or rough/bumpy skin 💙💚

@Moonuk For your very dry skin, the hydrating foaming oil cleaner will be the one for face and body. It will help to replenish Lipids with the triglyceride and squalane really helping to soothe and hydrate whilst cleansing. Then adding the hyaluronic acid serum AM + PM to lock in hyaluronic acid levels. Then the lotion with SPF 50 to moisturise and protect and in the pm the moisturising cream , which you can also apply on your face and body. Let me know how you get on 😊💚💙

What order should your skincare routine be. For instance vitamin c, serum, eye cream, moisturiser, sunscreen.

Hello @XimjX Always cleanse your skin first. Then apply your vitamin C serum, followed by eye cream. Then moisturiser and SPF 💙💚

Our SA Foot Cream is brilliant for those with dry, cracked heels! Super moisturising and exfoliating to help with build up of dry skin. 💙

Why does the vitamin C cerave serum have denatured alcohol in it when most of the other cerave serums and moisturisers contain ceteryl alcohol?

Denatured Alcohol is used in products to help it absorb easier and deeper into the skin. It is very common in products like vitamin C and retinols. Hope this helps! 💙

We haven’t received it yet so can’t upload any content to show texture etc. But its a lovely lightweight moisturiser for oily / combi skin types. It has great ingredients to help balance out the oil production in the skin too! 💙
