The skincare resolutions you should be making for 2026
Let's be honest... skincare tends to take the back seat when life gets busy.
But here's the thing: your skin is your body's largest organ (and the one everyone sees). As we head into 2026, we're sharing five resolutions that we think you should make and stick to in 2026.
Resolution #1: Take your makeup off before bed
After a long day, the last thing you want to do is stand at your sink removing makeup. But if you’ve ever wondered why your skin feels dull, congested, or prone to breakouts, it might be because some nights you hit the sack without taking the time to clean your skin.
Sleeping with makeup on suffocates your pores, locks in pollution and oil, and invites acne-causing bacteria to flourish. Over time, this accelerates aging, encourages fine lines, and strips away your skin’s natural balance.
We (and any other person who has used it) are obsessed with the Virgin Organic Hemp Seed Oil Super Cleanser because it melts away even the most stubborn waterproof mascara.
If 2026 is your year though, then we'll like to introduce you to double cleanse. This method starts with an oil-based cleanser (the Virgin Organic Hemp Seed Oil Super Cleanser) and ends with a water-based cleanser - we have beautiful soap cleansers for that last simple touch.
Resolution #2: Wear SPF whenever you go outside
Gone are the days when sunscreen was just for beach trips. Whether it's sunny or cloudy, if you're spending the day outside then SPF should be the first thing on your mind. UV Rays are the stepmother of mother nature - They prematurely age your skin, causes dark spots, and yeah, increases your risk of skin cancer.
Here's your new 2026 morning mantra: SPF 50. Every. Single. day. Some make-ups even have built-in SPF and is also a great solution.
Quick note: We're working on creating our own 100% natural sunscreen (exciting!), but in the meantime, go for organic 50 SPF formulas as they won't have chemicals in them.
Oh, and don't forget - reapplying is just as crucial as that first morning application!
Resolution #3: Change your skincare regime as the seasons change
Your skin's needs change with the seasons.
Spring is when you revive and rejuvenate with the blossoms. Summer should be all about shielding and protecting. Repair and rejuvenate Summer's damage in Autumn and finally, lock in all of the moisture in winter.
Think of it like having a wardrobe, but for your face. Keep what works for each season, ditch what doesn't. Your skin will be more resilient and radiant all year long... we promise!
Resolution #4: Reflect on your wins, no matter the size
Life moves fast—sometimes too fast. In the hustle of to-do lists, work emails, appointments, and endless notifications, it's easy to overlook the small things that make a big difference to our emotional well-being.
But here’s your gentle reminder: every little win counts and celebrating it is crucial to self-care and your well-being.
This resolution isn’t about productivity—it’s about presence. It’s about recognizing the little nudges that say, “I’m trying,” and allowing yourself to feel proud of them.
At our core, we believe in nurturing more than just skin. So, in 2026, make a promise to yourself: celebrate the quiet wins, no matter how small they seem. They’re not small. They’re real, and they matter.
Pause. Reflect. Smile. You’re doing better than you think.
Resolution #5: Vow to moisturize
I know moisturizing seems like Skincare 101, but you'd be surprised how many people skip this step. Hydration helps maintain the skin’s protective barrier, reduces the appearance of fine lines, and smooths overall texture.
And remember, oily and acne-prone skin needs moisture too. The drier your skin, the more oil your face will produce.
Moisturizer should be an am and pm ritual, no matter your skin type.
Our go-to? The bestselling Ultra Rich Anti Ageing Night and Day Cream Set.
Final Thoughts on Skincare in 2026
You don't need a complicated 12-step routine or a trust fund for fancy creams. What you really need is consistency, some self-compassion, and maybe a little fun along the way.
Happy 2026! Here's to fresh starts, gorgeous skin, and finally putting yourself at the top of your to-do list.
