Dr. Whitney Bowe told "GMA" 10-step beauty routines are out, and more simplified routines are in for 2021. Start with a cleanser such as La Roche-Posay Toleriane Hydrating Gentle Face Cleanser.
Following your cleanser, she recommends patting your face dry, then mixing together a vitamin C serum and a tinted moisturizer.
Complete your routine with a mineral-based sunscreen.

Bowe also points out that dry brushes were really hot in 2020, but people are realizing that these tools for the body or face are actually damaging the delicate skin barrier.
"Even the soft bristles, over time can lead to inflammation and make skin dry, itchy and even lead to hyperpigmentation," she told "GMA."
In 2021, massage tools are in, according to Bowe. She recommends looking for jade rollers and gua sha stones as they promote circulation and lymphatic drainage.
