How to use a sunscreen. Advice from Dermatest Australia (leading authority and testing agency)
It is essential to use sunscreen correctly to achieve protection.
• Apply sunscreen liberally to all sun-exposed areas so that it forms a film when initially applied. Most people do not use enough. It takes at least six teaspoons of lotion to cover the sun-exposed areas of the body of one average adult person.
• It takes 20–30 minutes for sunscreen to be absorbed by the skin and it can easily be rubbed off, so apply it at least half an hour before going out in the sun.
• Reapply after half an hour so that the ‘mountains’, as well as the ‘valleys’, are protected (imagine you are painting a wall – two coats of paint provide a more even coverage than one).
• Re-apply sunscreen every 2 hours if staying out in the sun for more than an hour during the day.
• Re-apply immediately after swimming, excessive sweating, or if rubbed off by clothing or towelling, even if the product claims to be “water resistant”.
• Insect repellents reduce the sunscreen's SPF so when using together, use a sunscreen with a higher SPF and re-apply more often.

Keep in mind that while crucial, sunscreen alone is not enough. Seek the shade whenever possible, wear sun-safe clothing, a wide-brimmed hat and UV-blocking sunglasses, for a complete sun protection strategy.

Emma Lewisham Routines

Emma Lewisham Routines

All of our products were developed to be used in synergy with each other. Here’s how we recommend you use them as part of an Emma Lewisham routine.

 

Morning Routine: 

 

Step 1.
Illuminating Oil Cleanser 

Cleansing dissolves dirt and removes makeup and other impurities from the skin, that if left untouched would degrade collagen and elastin. Our Illuminating Oil Cleanser can be used in the morning or evening and we recommend you cleanse for at least 45 seconds. 

Step 2.
Skin Reset Serum

Our rich Skin Reset serum works to even skin tone. It repairs and prevents hyperpigmentation, dark spots, uneven skin tone, acne scars and redness, delivering a glowing and even-toned complexion. Our Skin Reset can be used in the morning or evening.

Step 3.
Illuminating Brighten Your Day Crème

This moisturiser brightens and hydrates the skin's complexion for an unparalleled glow.

Step 4
Supernatural Triple Vitamin A + Face Oil 

Our light Face Oil nourishes the skin and works to improve elasticity, regenerate collagen inventory, and minimise the appearance of fine lines. We recommend using this after other skincare products (except if you’re wearing sunscreen – see the next step below) to seal in all the ingredients and moisture you have just applied to your face. Our Supernatural Triple Vitamin A+ Oil can be used in the morning or evening.

Step 5.
Skin Shield SPF 30 Daily Face Antioxidant or Skin Shield Broad Spectrum SPF 30

We always recommend finishing with an SPF 30 every day. Protecting your skin from the UVA and UVB rays in sunlight helps to retain the most youthful, healthy and plump skin.

 

 

Evening Routine: 

Step 1.
Illuminating Oil Cleanser 

Cleansing dissolves dirt and removes makeup and other impurities from the skin, that if left untouched would degrade collagen and elastin. Our Illuminating Oil Cleanser can be used in the morning or evening and we recommend you cleanse for at least 45 seconds. 

Step 2.
Illuminating Exfoliant 

Exfoliation gently removes and lifts dead skin cells, revealing radiance beneath and stimulating cell regeneration. We recommend you use the Illuminating Exfoliant at night only 2-3 times each week, to avoid over-exfoliation.

Step 3.
Skin Reset Serum

Our rich Skin Reset serum works to even skin tone. It repairs and prevents hyperpigmentation, dark spots, uneven skin tone, acne scars and redness, delivering a glowing and even-toned complexion. Our Skin Reset can be used in the morning or evening.

Step 4.
Supernatural Anti-Ageing 72-Hour Hydration Night Crème with Collagen Peptides 

Our Supernatural 72-Hour Hydration Crème is a rich crème that is scientifically proven to boost collagen production, softens the look of fine lines and wrinkles, and will deeply hydrate your skin for over 72-hours after just one application.

Step 5.
Supernatural Triple Vitamin A + Face Oil

Our light Face Oil nourishes the skin and works to improve elasticity, regenerate collagen inventory, and minimise the appearance of fine lines. We recommend using this after other skincare products (except if you’re wearing sunscreen – see the next step below) to seal in all the ingredients and moisture you have just applied to your face. Our Supernatural Triple Vitamin A+ Oil can be used in the morning or evening.

 

Skincare Tips

Cleansing can be done either in the morning or night, it’s really up to your personal preference. 

Face oils aren’t bad for skin that’s already oily, and they can actually help to balance the skin. It does feel like putting an oil on your skin will only clog pores (and seems counterintuitive), but our face oil is formulated to be light and non-comedogenic (or non-pore clogging).

We recommend you use a Muslin Cloth when cleansing and exfoliating. This will elevate your skincare routine by stimulating circulation and helping to exfoliate any dead surface skins cells, without irritating delicate complexions.

The general rule for skincare is to layer form the thinnest to the thickest product, except for our Supernatural Triple Vitamin A+ Face oil which should be used last to seal in the earlier products that have been used. 

Your best anti-ageing weapon is sunscreen. Up to 90% of skin ageing is caused by the UV rays emitted by the sun. This is why we recommend you apply sunscreen every day.
