Far from being a chore, skincare is now seen as an opportunity for self-care and pampering. Every new year comes with new skincare trends.

1. Mushrooms

Have you been avoiding mushrooms lately because of the infamous Cordyceps from 'The Last of Us' series? No more because these fungi can do wonders for your skin!

Cordyceps and other fungi like Tremella, Reishi, and Coprinus are antioxidant-rich and have hydrating and collagen-boosting properties. They can also reduce dark spots and soothe inflammation, making them the latest craze in the world of skin care.

2. Hybrid Skincare

2022 marked the year when the beauty industry was hit by a wave of skin care makeup hybrids. And it's not surprising why their demand continues to soar. These products not only help to even out your skin tone but also treat it at the same time, thanks to their nourishing ingredients. These hybrid products have become essential to skin care, from primers that hydrate and prep your skin to foundations and concealers that offer a healthy treat.

3. Focus on Body care

A rising skincare trend in 2023 is body care! While it's taken people a while to realise that their body skin needs the same attention as their faces, they're beginning to prioritise it. Emerging products like salicylic acid sprays, glycolic acid treatments, retinol lotions, and lactic acid-infused products are taking center stage to target body acne, pigmentation, stretch marks, and strawberry legs.

4. Minimalist Skincare

Gone are the days of lengthy skincare routines, as the "less is more" trend takes over in 2023! This minimalist approach, which started as a makeup trend last year, is transforming the skin care industry. Instead of using multiple products, people use science-backed ingredients like retinol, vitamin C, and collagen in booster serums.

5. Advanced Skin Cycling

Dr Whitney Bowe coined "skin cycling" to describe a technique for achieving smoother, clearer skin by alternating between exfoliating acids, retinol, and moisturiser. However, in 2023, a new approach, "advanced skin cycling", is set to make its mark in the skincare world. This personalised method allows you to tailor your routine to your needs by swapping out a "recovery" night for extra retinol.
