I have written about SBC (Simply Beautiful) before and how I love their Collagen Skincare Gel. Recently, I have been testing their Collagen 3-in-1 Cleanser and their Collagen Day & Night Cream.
Cleansing is Essential
Cleansing is always the first and most important step in our skincare routine. If we do not cleanse effective and thoroughly, then anything we attempt to use on our skin afterwards can not be absorbed.
The very simple process of cleansing our face before bed is an excellent way to mitigate the external factors associated with ageing and to stimulate the internal processes that fight ageing. Never sleep with your makeup on. Overnight, the skin needs oxygen to repair itself and sleeping with makeup on deprives our skin of this vital nutrient and inhibits the natural repair process.
SBC Collagen 3-in-1 Cleanser
Twice daily facial hygiene is essential. What I love most about SBC as a brand and their products, is that they give us products which are easy to use, a pleasure to use and effective. The SBC Collagen 3 in 1 Cleanser is a triple-action facial cleanser, with passion flower and kukui seed oils. It removes all traces of make-up, dirt, oil and impurities, gently lifts away eye make-up and mildly exfoliates for a softer, smoother and brighter complexion. SBC say that it is especially recommended for mature, dull and dry skin types. I would recommend this cleanser for anyone and everyone over the age of 30. It is a real pleasure to use. It cleanses the skin, protects the skin, respects the skin’s natural pH balance and prepares the skin for whatever products to be used afterwards.
The SBC Cleanser comes with a skin shammy; it is fantastic at drawing out skin impurities and will not irritate the skin.
How to Use
Cleanse daily morning and night using this two-step process:
1) Massage one or two pumps on to dry skin over eyes, face and neck.
2) Rinse the Skin Shammy in warm water and wring out before gently wiping off the Cleanser. Rinse the Shammy and repeat.

For Healthy Skin, Daily Moisturising is Vital
Our skin is the body’s largest organ and requires regular attention to stay young, balanced and healthy. The old cold creams had the traditional job of preventing skin dryness, today’s moisturiser has to do so much more. The skin on our face has different concerns from that on your body. Our face is exposed daily to all the elements, making it more prone to damaging external factors, such as UV damage and pollution. As a result, our faces tend to be first in the queue when it comes to visible signs of ageing and need extra layers of protection in the form of UV protection, anti-oxidants and hydrating ingredients.
SBC Collagen Day & Night Cream
This moisturiser is a must for anyone concerned with the signs of ageing. It is a rich and balanced cream that contains a unique source of Collagen, to help hydrate, smooth and soften dry, dehydrated and mature skin. When our skin is nourished and balanced, our skin looks fresher, more vibrant and we look more youthful. This cream powerful combines nourishing shea butter, luxurious sweet almond oil, vitamin-rich Kukui Seed Oil and exotic Passion Flower oil.
How to Use
Apply morning and evening, all over face, neck and decollete.
