Eyecare 101: Caring for the most delicate skin on your face
The skin around the eyes loses moisture 60 percent faster than other facial areas and produces fewer natural lipids to seal that hydration in. Repetitive motion (blinking, smiling, squinting) further stresses the collagen matrix, while UV damage can accelerate its breakdown by up to 80 percent if unprotected.

Why a Morning Skincare Ritual is the Best Gift You Can Give Your Skin
We all have our morning routines – coffee, emails … maybe even a quick scroll through Instagram. But what about your skin? While you were sleeping, your skin was hard at work repairing itself. And that’s exactly why a morning skincare ritual isn’t just about looking good it’s about protecting the work your skin has done overnight and preparing it for the day ahead. 🌙 What Happens to Your Skin at Night While you sleep, your skin enters “repair mode”: Cell turnover increases – new cells push to the surface. Blood flow improves – helping with repair and rejuvenation. Barrier recovery – the skin heals micro-damage from the day. But here’s the catch: sweat, oil, dead skin cells, and even traces of last night’s skincare are left behind. If you don’t properly cleanse in the morning, your Vitamin C or SPF won’t absorb or work effectively. 🚫 Why Old-School Cleansing Strips Your Skin Remember those foaming cleansers that left your skin feeling tight and “squeaky clean”? Dermatologists now agree that no matter your age, harsh foaming washes strip away natural oils and disrupt your skin’s microbiome. Your skin’s microbiome is like a protective garden of good bacteria. When you strip it, you weaken your barrier, leaving skin more prone to dryness, sensitivity, and breakouts. That’s why experts now recommend the oil + cloth method: Cleansing oil dissolves overnight buildup without harming your barrier. Organic muslin cloth gently exfoliates—removing dead skin so your Vitamin C can penetrate better. It’s the modern, microbiome-friendly way to start your day. 🍊 Vitamin C: Your Morning Skin Juice Shot Think of Vitamin C as the ultimate skin smoothie. It brightens, evens tone, and protects against environmental stress. ✨ Proven benefits: Reduces oxidative skin damage from UV rays and pollution Stimulates collagen production for firmer skin Improves texture and tone one study showed a 73% visible improvement in 12 weeks But here’s the problem: most ready-made Vitamin C serums are unstable. They oxidise quickly, losing potency and sometimes becoming irritating. That’s why using the SAIRA Brightening Vitamin C Serum with SAIRA’s Hyaluronic Boosting Drops is different. You mix it fresh, so it stays potent and gentle, while the hyaluronic acid hydrates deeply. The result? A powerful yet skin-friendly antioxidant cocktail. 🛡️ The SPF + Vitamin C Dream Team If Vitamin C is your morning juice, SPF is your daily armour. Together, they’re unstoppable. Vitamin C neutralises free radicals SPF blocks UVA (wrinkles, pigmentation) and UVB (burns, DNA damage). 💡 Studies show: People who use sunscreen daily show 24% fewer signs of ageing than those who don’t. When paired with antioxidants like Vitamin C, SPF is even more effective at preventing UV-induced damage. No matter your age, this duo is non-negotiable. 👳♀️Why It’s Even More Important as You Age As we get older, skin naturally: Produces less collagen. Has slower cell turnover. Develops a weaker barrier. That’s why a wholesome, organic-inspired morning ritual matters more with time. By choosing gentle cleansing oils, microbiome-friendly cloths, fresh Vitamin C, and SPF, you’re protecting your skin for the long run without harsh chemicals. 🌿 The Takeaway Your morning skincare ritual isn’t vanity it’s self-care and protection. Think of it as brushing your teeth, but for your skin’s long-term health. Cleanse gently with oil + cloth. Feed your skin Vitamin C + Hyaluronic hydration. Protect with SPF. ✨ Small daily habits = big future rewards. Your future self (and your skin) will thank you. References Pullar, J. M., Carr, A. C., & Vissers, M. C. M. (2017).
