As a career beauty editor, I enjoy the faff of a complex, multi-step skincare routine as much as the next gal.
That said, these days I don’t have as much time for the faff as I once did. (Children, self-employed etc. etc.)
Lately, I’ve found myself snapping up my skincare regimen, adopting a much more stripped-back approach.
I’ve whittled down my daily lineup to a tight edit of hard-working basics that cleanse, nourish and protect.
From there, I’ll add targeted treatments – like a barrier repair serum – depending on what my skin is doing.
One brand I’ve explored on this journey is Adore Beauty’s own AB LAB, for its simple but effective skincare.
AB LAB’s MO is offering products for different skin types at under $50 that can slot into any beauty routine.

What: AB LAB Dewy-C SPF50+ Facial Sun Milk 75mL
This moisturising sunscreen not only provides broad-spectrum sun protection, it also brings antioxidants to the table (vitamin C and resveratrol) to help protect against free radical damage and even out skin tone.
It’s a lightweight, milky formula that blends in seamlessly, giving a naturally luminous finish for a lil’ extra glow.
