When it comes to skincare, it's easy to get stuck in a rut. You might have some good habits (always taking your makeup off before bed even if it is just a slick of mascara) but others aren't so beneficial for skin (overusing buzzy ingredients like acids and retinol — ouch).

As we head towards 2022, you're probably keeping a mental list of potential New Year's resolutions spanning everything from work and money to your social life and mental health. According to the experts, it pays to switch up your skincare rituals, too.

Ahead, consultant dermatologist for CeraVe Dr Alexis Granite shares the beauty tips that'll ensure your skin stays healthy, happy and glowing all year round — and there's no need to visit an expert to get there.
