RAWKANVAS SKIN SCHOOL

Nowadays our lives are busy! While we’re trying to juggle everything from simply drinking enough water, working hard, chasing dreams and putting the kids to sleep, it’s easy to see how the likes of self-care and skincare routines start to slip. So, if you find yourself stretched and out of hours by the end of the day, but you desperately want to see those glowing skin results, then this one is for you!  

Check out our quick and easy tips, and go with what works for you.

Yep, it's getting expensive out there! And while we're cutting budgets left, right and centre... the good news is, when it comes to skincare, less really can be more. So if you're looking to re-evaluate your 10-step skincare routine for a more budget-friendly one, then this is for you! Because you can achieve the results you're after by focussing on quality over quantity - and it's called skin minimalism. Discover how to make the concept of skin minimalism work for you.

It's summer! And with it comes carefree beach days, bulk sunshine, wavy hair and bronzed-up skin. But the hot temperatures can also bring with it more sweat (trapping the likes of makeup, dirt and oil in our pores) and dehydration too - so of course like any season, summer is a good time to rethink your routine. And the good news is, less is more!

So check out our simple tips and our summer skincare routine that'll keep you carefree, confident and protected all summer long. Get out there and enjoy yourself!

When it comes to keeping a good (and consistent) skincare routine, there's a few things that we know for sure! One, less is more. Two, time is important. And three, skincare is an investment. And it's for all these reasons, that it's great to get multipurpose products into your routine - they replace multiple products, they save you time, and, they save you money (yay!). Not to mention, they deliver results.

So, let's introduce you to our brand-spanking-new multipurpose serums, Essence and Vibrance, shall we?!

"Skin cycling". It's approved by leading skin experts and dermatologists, so you just know it's going to be good! But what is it exactly? It's simple. Skin cycling is a night-time routine that focusses on using specific active ingredients, on certain days. For example, active ingredients are used for two nights in a row, followed by two nights of recovery, and then repeating the routine as a consistent cycle.

It's a great way to ensure you're kicking your skin goals and keeping your skin barrier in-tact, rather than over-burdening your skin with actives (which can cause more harm than good!). Here's what skin cycling would look like, using RAWKANVAS products.

Let’s face it, we all have those ‘off’ days, the ‘not-so-great’ skin days, where we aren’t feeling as confident as we would like in our skin.  

But what does ‘off’ skin mean to you? For some of us it’s redness, for others it’s breakouts, dryness, dullness, a reaction, a flare up of an existing skin condition... the list goes on. Whatever your definition of ‘off’ skin is, remember that it is totally NORMAL to experience ‘off’ days.

So how do you deal with the not-so-great days and get your skin back on track? We’ve got a few quick tips for you!

Ahhh! There’s nothing quite like kicking back with a clay mask, glass of wine and a good book – it's the ultimate in #selfcare and it’s a look we see all over social media. But have we ever stopped to wonder how clay actually works to clean up our skin? Look, we’re glad you ‘asked’! Ok we brought it up. But it’s just because we’d love to tell you how clay can work practical wonders for your skin.  

So if your skin is prone to blackheads, congested pores, excess oil, breakouts or even a build-up of rough and bumpy texture – then this one’s for you! (And let’s face it, that covers pretty much all of us).

There’s nothing quite like the warm change in the air that comes with spring. We clean out our closets, swap hearty meals for lighter foods, peel off the extra layers of clothing and ditch our makeup in favour of days frolicking carefree in the sunshine. So it’s time to hit pause on the slugging, wake up our skin from the winter hibernation, and change up our skincare routine too!  

Check out our simple skincare tips to feel more comfortable, liberated and confident this spring. 

When it comes to skin goals, glowing skin and healthy skin top most lists. Who wouldn’t want sun kissed, youthful and radiant-looking skin all year round? Or even-toned and blemish-free skin? Yep... radiant, even and blemish-free... it’s what we hear the most. And you can get it. You can get it easily! Just take a little more of a holistic approach to your skincare routine, and you can be well on your way. Discover how.

Along with the winter season and cold weather, the onset of colds, flus and other bugs begin to wreak havoc on your mind, body and skin too. Because when you’re under the weather, often the last thing on your mind is your skincare routine. And because being sick is super stressful on your body, it shows up on your skin – skin dryness and dehydration, dull-looking skin, puffy eyes, chapped nostrils and lips... you know how it goes! 

So here's our low maintenance tips to keep up your skincare routine, even when you're feeling dreadful.

Balance. The key to almost everything in life, including the human body. We all know by now that a balanced gut is a healthy gut. And a healthy gut assists with everything from immunity function, inflammation and even our mental health. Just like the gut, our skin has its own microbiome which requires balance too. 

Let’s get to know our skin’s microbiome and why it’s key to healthier, happier skin.
