If your skincare routine is more complicated than a fishtail French braid (or takes even one tenth of the tie to complete), you’re definitely overdoing it and may even be doing more harm than good. According to Dr. Heather Rogers, a board-certified dermatologist, you only need five products to effectively prevent damage, increase cell turnover and slow the aging process. She breaks down the only 5 items you need in a skincare routine, and shares her favorite products. We say it’s great advice for our faces and our finances.
