LOOK YOUNGER LONGER

Elaine Thornhill's Personal Skincare Routine

For more than 50 years, I have cared for other people's skin and throughout those years I have been equally committed to caring for my own.

I have always believed that looking after your skin is not about occasional intervention or continually changing what you use. Skin responds to continuity. The right preparations, used regularly and with purpose, can make a lasting difference to the way your skin looks, feels and ages.

These are the Regentiv preparations I use myself. Each has a purpose within my routine and, together, they help me maintain the skin quality, firmness and healthy-looking radiance that I want to preserve.

For me, this is what Look Younger Longer is all about.

MY MORNING ROUTINE

Active Cleanser
I start my day with Active Cleanser to remove the natural overnight build-up and thoroughly cleanse my pores, preparing my skin for the preparations that follow. I prefer to use it with water. I love the fresh, clean feeling it gives my skin.

The Specialist Serum
No day begins without it. I do believe it has made the difference to how my skin looks today. I lovingly apply it to my face, neck and décolleté, around my eyes and up to my lashes. For me, it is about improving, maintaining and preserving the quality of my skin for today and the future.

Enhance & Protect SPF30
My final morning step and one that is so much more than just a moisturiser, providing hydration, skin support and SPF30 protection. My skin is then perfectly prepared for make-up or, on lazy days, none at all!

MY EVENING ROUTINE

Gentle Cleanser & Eye Make-up Remover
I begin by thoroughly removing make-up and the day's impurities without leaving my skin feeling dry or tight. I always double cleanse.

Super Clean Lotion
My secondary cleanse to ensure my skin is beautifully clean, clarified and ready for my evening preparations.

Super Lifting Serum
At the end of a hectic day, this is the preparation that ‘lifts my spirits’ as well as caring for my skin supporting firmness, facial definition and the areas where I particularly want to preserve tone

High Potency Night Cream
Rich yet deceptively light, I love how this nourishes my skin while helping maintain firmness, elasticity and resilience as I sleep.

MY FOCUSED CARE

Neck & Décolleté Rejuvenation
I never neglect my neck and décolleté. I use this to maintain firmness, elasticity and improve crepey skin texture extending it across the tops of my shoulders and definitely onto my upper arms.

Rejuvenating & Protecting Eye Gel
My cooling, soothing and reviving eye rescue when I look tired or puffy particularly on hot days, after travelling, or whenever my eye area feels sensitive or needs extra hydration.

Precious Eye Cream
When I feel I need richer care around my eye area, this provides additional nourishment and support for fine lines and wrinkles. I also massage a little into and around my lips to maintain hydration and encourage a smoother, plumper appearance.

Self Tan Triple Care
My way of adding a natural, healthy-looking glow without deliberately exposing my skin to the sun.

MY HAND & BODY CARE

Regenerative Hand Cream
Hands deserve as much care as the face and my feet appreciate it too! I use this morning and evening, particularly as walking my dog, whatever the weather, is one of my greatest pleasures.

Deep Cleansing Face & Body Wash
Perfect in the shower. I love the way the fine marine grains gently polish and invigorate my skin, leaving it feeling smooth and wonderfully revitalised.

Calming & Desensitising Gel
Always close to hand a preparation I make sure travels with me. It’s my go-to for those minor skin emergencies, not only for me but for friends and family too, whether it’s prickly heat, sunburn, an irritating gnat bite, or skin simply becomes reactive and needs calming and soothing.

MY PHILOSOPHY

To Look Younger Longer has never meant trying to look like someone younger.

For me, it is about preserving and maintaining the quality of your skin, caring for it every day and looking good for who you are now.

Continuity is the key.
