Don’t Stop Your Skincare at Your Jawline
When we surveyed our customers this year, one comment came up that really stayed with us:
“My neck skin has aged far more quickly than my face so I feel it doesn’t match!”
It’s one of those things a lot of women notice, but not many people talk about, and often, the reason is simple: we spend years carefully applying skincare to our face, then stop right at the jawline.
Your neck deserves the same routine
The good news is, you probably don’t need an entirely separate routine.
In most cases, the easiest place to start is simply taking the products you already use a little further down.
Cleanser, serum, moisturiser and SPF can all be extended over the jawline, down the neck and across the décolletage.
Same routine. Just a little further.
Be gentle with the area
The skin around the neck and chest can feel more delicate, so there’s no need for heavy rubbing or aggressive application.
Use light pressure and smooth your products over the skin gently.
If you’re using a serum or moisturiser on your face that you already love, bring it down over the neck and chest too.
SPF matters here too
This is one of the easiest areas to forget when applying sunscreen.
Your neck and décolletage can be exposed throughout the day, whether you’re walking outside, driving or simply spending time near windows.
So when you apply your morning SPF, don’t stop at the face.
Take it down the neck and across any exposed areas of the chest as well.
If your main concern is firmness
If you’re already using a firming product on your face, you can extend it to the neck and décolletage too.
Our Firming Peptide Moisturiser can be worked into your routine wherever you want to support a firmer, smoother-looking appearance.
The key is consistency rather than adding lots of extra steps.
If your face and chest look like different shades
Sometimes the contrast isn’t about skincare at all.
If your foundation looks noticeably different from your neck or chest, it may simply be time for a fresh shade match.
Your foundation should blend naturally into the surrounding skin rather than creating a clear line at the jaw.
If you’re unsure, our team can help with a free colour match.
A little extra colour can help too
If your chest tends to look lighter than the rest of your skin, a Gradual Tanning Moisturiser can be an easy way to create a more even-looking tone.
It’s not about changing your skin. It’s simply another option if you want your face, neck and chest to feel a little more balanced.
And one more thing
One customer described hers as a “chook neck” which made us smile, because Australian women are very good at joking about the things they’re actually a little self-conscious about.
It’s okay to notice these changes. It’s also okay to want to care for them.
You don’t need a completely new routine or a cupboard full of extra products. You may just need to take the routine you already have a little further down.
