The Best At-Home Skin Treatments And Products You Need Right Now
It’s the ‘will we, won’t we?’ question on everyone’s mind right now. A fourth lockdown is potentially looming, with stricter restrictions a possibility. But, for skincare and self-care enthusiasts at least, that doesn’t need to spell doom and gloom. At-home skincare treatment options are better than ever before and previous lockdowns have well and truly proven themselves to have a hugely beneficial impact on our beauty regimes.
September 2021 research from Lycored revealed a significant upswing in focus on beauty and self-care during lockdowns, with more than a third of those questioned saying their focus on looking after themselves had increased during lockdowns and 80% saying that their new at-home skincare habits would continue. More people made the connection between inner and outer wellness, with 35% of respondents planning on purchasing more ingestible skincare supplements, and four in ten saying that more time at home meant that they were more able to stick to long-term skincare and beauty regimes.
A survey by Champneys showed that 30% of Britons have prioritised self-care more since the start of the pandemic, whilst research from MBS Intelligence concluded that consumers have turned to skincare as a direct result of Covid-19. More importantly, a further study revealed that of those who have changed their regimes and skin treatments at home during the pandemic, 70% saw the condition of their skin improve.
But, what are the key concerns for those of us looking to find the best at-home skincare products and best at-home skin treatments? The ‘zoom effect’ has seen a rise in searches for ‘skincare for glowing skin at home’ and ‘brightening skincare at home’, whilst the dreaded maskne has many of us seeking out acne-prone skin treatments at home. 'Anti-ageing skincare at home' has also seen an upsurge, as many of us harbour concerns about fine lines, wrinkles and loss of volume and elasticity.
If you’re feeling a little overwhelmed and wondering where to start in terms of the best at-home facial products, skincare treatments, supplements and devices, fear not as we’re here to help you find the perfect skincare products at home. From collagen boosting drinks to multitasking serums and LED masks, these products can provide comparable results to in-clinic treatments!
