7 Skincare Resolutions for 2025 to Keep Your Skin Healthy & Glowing

Haven’t made any resolutions yet? No problem—there’s no better time than now to refresh and revamp your skincare routine. For 2025, I’m sharing resolutions inspired by the latest research and a deep understanding of skin health. The days of long, complicated routines are behind us. Instead, we’re embracing a holistic and minimalistic approach, where inner nourishment is just as vital as the products we apply.

Whether you’re a resolutions enthusiast or simply looking to manifest healthier, more radiant skin this year, here are 7 skincare resolutions designed to help you achieve your best glow yet.

1. Make Sunscreen Your Everyday Habit

This one is at the top of my list for a reason! No matter the weather, UV rays can silently harm your skin by accelerating aging, causing pigmentation, and damaging its protective barrier. They even pass through windows, so applying SPF every morning is a must—even if you’re indoors. Enjoy the important health benefits of sunlight, but always protect your skin during exposure.

What to Choose: Look for a mineral-based sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher, ideally boosted with antioxidants for extra defense against environmental stressors. Skip chemical formulas with oxybenzone to avoid potential irritation and hormonal interference. Mineral sunscreens are gentle, effective, and skin-friendly.

2. Exfoliate Weekly for Smoother, Brighter Skin

Adding an exfoliator to your skincare routine in 2025 is a simple yet powerful way to elevate your regimen. By gently removing dead skin cells, your complexion becomes smoother, brighter, and more receptive to serums and creams. The best part? You only need to exfoliate once a week to see visible benefits.

What to Choose: I created the Blueberry Express Peel with this goal in mind—a way to bring the glow of a professional resurfacing facial right into your home. This gel-based peel works in just minutes to effectively exfoliate and rejuvenate without damaging your skin.

Avoid harsh physical exfoliants, as their abrasive particles can compromise your skin barrier. Instead, opt for a gentle chemical exfoliant like this one, designed to reveal your best skin safely and effectively.

3. Cut the Sugar: Choose Low Glycemic Foods for Youthful Skin

While I’m not a sweet tooth, one of the best pieces of advice I can give is to minimize your sugar intake from high glycemic foods like refined grains, sugary drinks, processed snacks, and candy. Excess sugar leads to a process called glycation, where sugar molecules bind to proteins like collagen and elastin in the skin. This causes them to stiffen, break down, and eventually lead to wrinkles and sagging.

To keep your skin looking youthful, opt for fruits with a low glycemic index, such as strawberries, blueberries, pears, cherries, and green bananas. These fruits help reduce inflammation and prevent sugar-related skin damage, helping maintain smooth, glowing skin.

4. Prioritize Non-Toxic Beauty for Better Skin and a Healthier Planet

Did you know that Europe bans over 1600 harmful ingredients in beauty products, while the US only restricts 11? Before purchasing any beauty product, always check the labels carefully, and don’t hesitate to reach out to the brand if something doesn’t sit right with you.

Even when you choose natural brands, it’s important to ensure the ingredients are sustainably sourced and ethically harvested—because quality and purity can vary.

At NOOMI, I formulate all of our products to meet Europe’s strict standards, ensuring they’re safe, effective, and trustworthy. For extra peace of mind, I recommend checking ingredients at EWG to get science-based information on product safety

5. Do regular Skin Checks

As someone who’s personally faced Stage 3 melanoma, I can’t stress enough the importance of regular skin checks. Take time each month to examine your skin for new or changing spots or moles. Watch out for itching, bleeding, changes in size, or anything that just doesn’t look quite right. Don’t forget the hard-to-see areas like your back and scalp—ask a friend or family member to help.

If something seems off, consult your doctor or dermatologist. The good news? Most moles are harmless, and only about 10-15% turn out to be precancerous or cancerous when biopsied. Early detection is critical, so make it a habit. The American Academy of Dermatology even offers free skin cancer screenings—find one near you here: AAD Screenings.

6. Make Internal Anti-Aging a Priority This Year

You’ve heard the saying, “You are what you eat,” and it’s true. What you put in your body directly affects how you look and feel. A diet rich in processed foods won’t just undermine your skincare routine—it can lead to a variety of health problems, too.

This year, make it a priority to focus on what you’re nourishing your body with. Eating healthy 90% of the time can have a major impact on your energy, mood, and skin health. A Mediterranean diet, rich in anti-inflammatory foods, is a great way to combat premature aging and support glowing skin.

Chaga Elixir

You can also consider our Chaga Elixir—my go-to holistic supplement to boost skin and hair health from the inside out. Packed with inflammation-fighting benefits and immune-boosting properties, it’s an easy addition to your morning routine.

7. Simplify Your Routine, Maximize Your Results

The secret to youthful, healthy skin isn’t in a complicated 10-step regimen—it’s in consistency. Overwhelming routines can be hard to stick to and may even harm your skin. Too many products, especially those loaded with active ingredients, can disrupt your barrier, increase sensitivity, and even accelerate aging.

Keep it simple. A minimalistic routine is easier to commit to, better for your wallet, and often delivers superior results. Prioritize a few high-quality essentials with pure, effective ingredients. Your skin—and your schedule—will thank you.

That's my top 7 resolutions for 2025, prioritizing holistic wellness and simplicity for peace of mind. Let’s make this year all about focusing on our health, inside and out.
