Have you ever felt like your skincare routine just... stopped working? You’re not alone. Many people experience what's called "ingredient fatigue" — when once-effective active ingredients like Vitamin C or niacinamide seem to lose their magic over time. But don’t ditch your products just yet! Understanding why this happens and how to reset your skincare routine can breathe new life into your regimen.
What is Ingredient Fatigue in Skincare?
Ingredient fatigue refers to the phenomenon where active ingredients become less effective over time. This can occur due to several reasons:
Skin Tolerance
Your skin can build tolerance to certain actives, especially when used daily. Think of it like caffeine—the more you consume, the less impact it has.
Environmental and Lifestyle Changes
Changes in weather, stress levels, or even diet can affect how your skin responds to products.
Product Degradation
Active ingredients like Vitamin C can oxidize and lose potency if not stored properly.
How to Reset Your Skincare Routine
Step 1: Simplify and Pause
Take a break from active-heavy products. Switch to a gentle routine that supports your skin barrier. Use products from our Detoxifying Ritual Set like:
- Detoxifying Cleansing Oil: Packed with grapeseed oil and vitamin E, this cleanser lifts impurities without stripping your skin.
- Detoxifying Dual Mist: Formulated with witch hazel and cucumber extract, this hydrating facial mist soothes and refreshes stressed skin.
- Detoxifying Dual Serum: Featuring niacinamide and green tea extract, this dual serum helps reset skin tone and reduce inflammation.
These products offer a skin detox while nourishing with antioxidants and calming botanicals.
Step 2: Reintroduce Actives Strategically
Once your skin feels balanced, begin reintroducing actives slowly. Rotate between:
Vitamin C:
Use the Brightening Ritual Set, especially the Brightening Dual Serum, containing Vitamin C and licorice root extract to fade hyperpigmentation and revive dull skin.
Niacinamide:
Continue with Detoxifying Dual Serum, which combines niacinamide with other calming ingredients for maximum balance.
Introduce these 2-3 times a week and increase as your skin adjusts.
