Good skin. We all want it, yet we also know that it’s notoriously hard to achieve. The journey to achieving luminous skin can feel long and tedious, especially because nowadays, we have access to hundreds of products that promise instant results.
Every month we’re being sold treatments, products, tools and everything else under the sun, all with the same claim: Perfect, baby smooth skin.
To help you avoid the headache of deciphering all the skincare trends that are currently circulating, we thought it would be best to break it down and explain which one is right for you.
At-home devices
In 2023, we’re expecting to see even more people take advantage of at-home devices. Skincare doesn’t just come in the form of lotions and potions anymore, and the best way to see fast results is to incorporate tools such as wrinkle-reducing LED and sculpting microcurrent devices.
BD recommends: At-home devices are fantastic for those with mature skin. The powerful technology can help lift and contour the face, leaving you with dramatic results. However, if you’re under the age of 25, we recommend sticking to more gentle products, and leaving the devices alone.

1000HOUR Facial Cleansing Brush Duo
Multi-use products
We don’t know about you, but we simply don’t have the time to apply 10 different skincare products each day and each night. After the pandemic, more and more consumers are looking for something easy and low maintenance, and nothing screams efficient than multi-use products. Cleansers that also exfoliate, serums that act as primers and masks that double as a moisturiser. The options are endless.
BD recommends: Multi-use products are good for those who don't have a lot of skin concerns. If you struggle with acne and fine lines, then it's best to have a more elaborate routine using products that specifically target those issues.

BIODERMA Sébium H2O Purifying Micellar Water
Skinimalism
This one has to be our favourite trend so far. Skinimalism is exactly what you think it is: Skincare stripped back. Instead of applying 20 different serums and four separate eye creams, experts are saying to opt for the bare minimum and stick to quality over quantity.
BD recommends: Skinimalism is perfect for those who have sensitive or reactive skin.

Elucent Even Tone Day Moisturiser
Bodycare
We’ve been told time and time again that the skin on our body is just as important as the skin on our face, so in 2023, it’s time to take care of both. This year, bodycare is going to become the next big thing. From thick moisturisers to exfoliating scrubs, by the end of the year, we’re expecting to have baby soft skin from head to toe.
BD recommends: Every single person should be taking care of their body, so hop on the trend with confidence.
