04 Jun Bee everything to everyone

We love skincare, we love effective products, and we love the feel of smooth skin.
What we don’t love so much is having to apply 101 different products to achieve that radiant glow of well moisturised and healthy skin (that’s without thinking about the impact such products and their packaging is having on the environment).
Similarly, we don’t always have as much time as we’d like to try new products or achieve that Instagrammable complexion (that may not even exist)!

We do have, however, a desire to find a skincare range that will give us an authentic no make-up make-up appearance (without having to apply layers of it to achieve the look).
Rather than being bombarded with the latest ‘must-have’ products, many of which we have no idea how they will transform our skin, we simply want a product that is good for it and gives us everything we could need in a product. One that we decide how, where, and when to apply.
For so long, we’ve been educated to believe that each part of the body needs a different product, a different consistency, a different means of application – you get the picture, you’ve seen the ads (and quite possibly your dresser is bursting with such lotions and potions!) In some respects, this is true as the thickness of the skin varies in different parts of the body. For example, the skin on the palms of your hands contains thicker epidermis than the skin on your eyes, so you wouldn’t use hand cream as an eye cream (nor would we recommend you to). That said, with the right product, care, and attention, there are exceptions to the rule!
So what’s so good about multi-purpose and is it better than a traditional moisturiser?
Let’s start with the benefits to the skin (obviously)
Protection – The right multi-purpose product will protect your skin from the moment of application. Every day we come into contact with things that can irritate the skin; it could be a chemical you use through your work or something as simple as regularly washing your hands.
A multi-purpose skin care product will protect the skin by creating a soft layer, preventing irritants from getting in and damaging it. A moisturiser doesn’t do that!
Soothing – If a multi-purpose product is made with the right natural ingredients, it can provide instant relief to sore or irritated skin that hasn’t initially been protected. Minor cuts and abrasions, often the ones that cause the eyewatering sting, will benefit from the soothing properties of a multi-purpose product. A moisturiser doesn’t do that either!
Moisturises – Wherever you apply a multi-purpose skin care product on the face or body, it should be left feeling smooth, soft, and moisturised.
Well moisturised skin can often be less susceptible to skin problems, can appear to have fewer blemishes or fine lines compared to dry skin, and always feels better irrespective of where on the body this is – even the feet!
OK, we’ll give you that one – a moisturiser does do that!
Hydration – Sometimes, only a specific product can get through to tougher skin parts such as heels, elbows, or knees. A second and sometimes third product is then needed to hydrate the cuticles and nails.
A genuine multi-purpose product will hydrate all of these traditionally dry body parts in the same way it hydrates the skin on our legs, arms and face. Dare we say it….a moisturiser can’t do that!
When it comes to our appearance, we all want something different based on our age, style, and often, trends of the time. A multi-purpose product allows you to #chosehowyouuse it to achieve the look you want for yourself.
If it’s make-up you wear, you should be able to use your multi-purpose as a primer; if its make-up free, then it should give you that luminous glow.
From relieving dry, cracked, or chapped lips to the dewey perfect pout, a multi-purpose will do all of this.
That’s not it either, even the tiniest amount of the right multi-purpose will keep your brows in place and achieve that perfectly groomed beautiful brow for you within seconds.
Whatever your style, whatever your age, a multi-purpose product will always empower you #beeyourself.
Saving time, money, and the planet is vital to us all, and only the right multi-purpose product will enable us to do all of these things.
As we want it all, we have to pay for it all, so the value of a beauty dresser can quickly mount up, and with the United Kingdom skincare market forecasted to reach USD 24.37 billion by 2024, this is only set to continue to rise.
Having a good-quality multi-purpose product that genuinely achieves everything you want for your skin will only ever positively affect our bank balance.
It doesn’t end there either. With nearly 300 million tonnes of plastic waste produced every year, of which about 91% is not recycled and of that which can be, it takes around 500-1,000 years for it to decompose, now more than ever its really important that the packaging of the product you select doesn’t add to this.
So the benefits of opting for a multi-purpose skin care product are simple, really. First and foremost, they’re great for your skin, they’re easy to use with even the smallest amount being effective, and their flexibility allows you to #useasyouchoose.
Still looking for more? Then remember, the right multi-skin product will save you money and time and be good for the environment.
Protector, hydrator, soother, exfoliator, moisturiser, anti-aging, and brightening, it will be everything to everyone. Most importantly thought, it will let you #beeyourself.
