How to Maintain Healthy Skin With (Almost) No Time
Be honest - when was the last time you had 30 spare minutes just lying around? Between juggling work, travel, events and workouts, a 10 step skincare routine sounds more like a fantasy than real life. But healthy skin doesn’t have to take a complicated lengthy process to achieve. With the right approach and strategy, you can keep your skin, protected, even, and hydrated no matter how hectic your schedule is. Here’s our methods. 1. Simplify your routine. If your skincare products in the bathroom are starting to resemble a lab shelf, it’s time to simplify. It's the consistency we need, and an overwhelming arsenal of products is certainly not the right way to go. So, how do you pick the core products? Here’s our trick - stick to these essentials: Cleanse. Treat. Protect. That’s it. Nice and simple skincare. The first point to start is with a facial cleanser. One that doesn’t strip your skin’s natural oils. Matter of Monday’s Pore-Refining Exfoliating Cleanser uses gentle ingredients such as fruit enzymes to dissolve the sweet,dirt and makeup and bamboo stem powder to strengthen the skin barrier. 2. Multi-Task Like a Boss. In a time crunch, your best bet is multitasking products that pack several benefits into one bottle. Our Anti-Blue Light Brightening Serum hydrates with sodium hyaluronate, shields against screen-induced oxidative stress with micro-algae extract, and gives dull skin an instant refresh with vitamin C and rice bran extract. That’s three wins in one quick pump! 3. Moisturizer is Mandatory. Skipping moisturizer because you're “too busy” or “too oily” is like skipping water. It just doesn’t make sense! A good moisturizer doesn’t just keep your skin soft; it helps maintain a healthy barrier, which is your skin’s first defense against pollution, bacteria, and irritation. Matter of Monday recommends choosing a breathable, fast-absorbing formula that won’t clog pores or leave a sticky residue. Our Anti-Stress Renewal Moisturizer is light weight and melts into the skin in seconds to give instant hydration and comfort. 4. Always apply sunscreen. In 1997, Baz Luhrmann told us a fact that we couldn’t get out of our heads. “Always apply sunscreen.” And how right Baz was! Sunscreen is non-negotiable. Keep a tinted SPF or moisturizer-with-SPF in your bag so you’re always protected—even on days when you’re applying in the car or during your elevator ride. 5. Night Mode: The 3-Minute Recharge. Even if you’re collapsing into bed after a 14-hour day, don’t skip your PM routine. Think of it as skin recovery—just like a post-workout stretch. Here’s your go-to: Quick cleanse. A pump of moisturizer. Tap in a small amount of Anti-Fatigue Restorative Eye Cream for an overnight pampering and repair with its packed peptides and proteins. 6. Hydrate From the Inside Out. Your skin is an organ (the largest one, btw), and it needs hydration like the rest of your body. Chug that water, eat those leafy greens, and don’t underestimate the power of eight hours of sleep. No serum in the world can undo chronic dehydration or sleep deprivation. But they can support you when you're doing your best. Let's keep it simple—skin care, not skin stress. Your routine shouldn’t stress you out. It should be the thing that keeps you grounded. This is something small you do for you, even when life is flying by at 100 mph. With Matter of Monday’s streamlined, multi-functional, protective products and a better routine, great skin is totally possible, even when time isn’t on your side. Because life moves fast—but that doesn’t mean your glow has to fall behind.

Are Zoom Meetings Damaging Your Skin?
Raise your hand if you’ve been in more Zoom meetings than face to face meetings recently. Hey, we get it. It’s the new norm. The modern world. But boy is it hurting our skincare! Whether it's back-to-back Zoom meetings, endless Slack pings, or the not-so-occasional “quick call,” we’re living in a world of screen time overload and your skin knows it. Dullness. Puffiness. Breakouts. Eye bags that could qualify for flight carry-on. This my friend is what we at Matter of Monday like to call Zoom fatigue skin, the modern complexion crisis no one asked for. But here’s the good news: this isn’t permanent yet! Your skin can bounce back from this. With the right formulas - like Matter of Monday’s Anti-Blue Light Brightening Serum and Anti-Fatigue Restorative Eye Cream, you can fight the signs of screen burnout and get that glow back. And yes, there’s real science behind it. What Is Zoom Fatigue Doing to Your Skin, Anyway? When we talk about “Zoom Fatigue Skin,” we’re really talking about the exhausting toll digital life takes on your face: Blue light (a.k.a. HEV light) from screens penetrates deeper than UVB rays and triggers oxidative stress, leading to premature aging, hyperpigmentation, and inflammation. Staring at screens for hours reduces blink rate and circulation around the eyes, increasing puffiness and dark circles. Stress from digital fatigue triggers cortisol spikes that mess with your skin barrier, increasing sensitivity, breakouts, and dryness. In short: the longer your face is lit by LED, the harder it works to keep up. Quick Tips: 1. Lower your screen brightness and use night mode or blue light filters whenever possible. 2. Take a 20-second break every 20 minutes to look at something 20 feet away (yes, that’s a real thing. It’s called the 20-20-20 rule). 3. Hydrate like it’s your job. Your skin loves water more than your Wi-Fi loves buffering. 4. Sleep. No serum can replace 7+ hours of rest. Simple! Solution #1: Anti-Blue Light Brightening Serum This serum is like noise-cancelling headphones for your skin. It blocks out the harmful effects of blue light and reinforces your natural barrier, thanks to ingredients backed by actual clinical data. Key Ingredients: Microalgae Extract: Rich in antioxidants, this high-tech ingredient neutralizes blue light–induced free radicals before they can wreak havoc. Niacinamide (Vitamin B3): Hugley on trend right now. You’ve probably already heard about it. Known for improving skin tone, strengthening the skin barrier, and calming inflammation basically, the MVP of modern skincare. Licorice Root Extract: Brightens and fades hyperpigmentation, so your skin looks energized even if your brain isn’t. How to Use: Apply in the morning before moisturizer and again post-Zoom marathons if your skin’s feeling fried. It layers beautifully under makeup and instantly boosts luminosity. Think: dewy filter IRL. Solution #2: Anti-Fatigue Restorative Eye Cream Because your eyes shouldn’t look as exhausted as you schedule. Whether it’s 6 hours of video calls or just one way too honest selfie, your under-eye area needs serious support. This eye cream is formulated to combat digital fatigue, fast. Key Ingredients: Peptides (Matrixyl 3000®): Clinically proven to stimulate collagen production and reduce fine lines. Yes, it works. Caffeine: De-puffs and energizes tired eyes by boosting circulation. Centella Asiatica (Cica): A K-beauty favorite known to calm irritation and fortify fragile skin. Real Talk: This cream is like a good night sleep in a tube. In fact, scrap that - it’s like sleeping on a cloud - in a tube. Use it morning and night for refreshed, lifted, camera-ready eyes - even after a 14-hour Slack spiral. Zoom Face, No More. Zoom fatigue is real, but your skin doesn’t have to show it. With smart, science-backed formulas like Matter of Monday’s Anti-Blue Light Brightening Serum and Anti-Fatigue Restorative Eye Cream, you can protect, restore, and glow—no camera filters needed.

Tired Skincare? Discover How Rice Bran Revives Dull, Dry Skin
Had days when your skin just looked “meh” rather than “glow”? Hey, we all have them. But, it might be time to call in a new ingredient - a new savior to the skincare battle - and no, it's not another buzzy acid or mystery oil from the deep depths of the Amazon. It's actually something surprisingly down-to-earth and simple: Rice Bran. And guess what? This plant-based powerhouse is about to become your dry skin’s new BFF. Whether you’re dealing with post-winter dullness, dehydration, or just that general “my skin looks as tired as I feel” vibes, rice bran is going to change that. It’s natural, powerful and, most importantly, it works. First, What Actually Is Rice Bran? Time to don our science hats for a second. Rice bran is derived from the outer layer of the rice grain — which is often overlooked, but boy is it packed with nutrients. Think amino acids, peptides, antioxidants, and vitamins like B and E. In short: a full buffet of skin-loving goodness, minus the irritation that can sometimes come with those stronger actives. But what’s the big deal? Well, it’s not just a protector of the skin. Oh no, it doesn’t just sit on your skin looking pretty, thinking “job done”. It gets to work, first with restoring and then with defending. So, it’s a big deal with tired skin. We’d be lying if we said we hadn’t been giving “tired skin” vibes at some point, right? It happens to the best of us! And as much as a strong triple-shot latte can boost the mindset, the skin needs something more. With rice bran, it’s amino acids help stimulate collagen production. This basically means firmer skin that looks brighter and much more awake. Not only that, it then focuses on repairing the skin cells. So, finally all that pollution, blue light and hormonal drama has a fight on it’s hands. How Rice Bran Helps Dry Skin If you thought dry skin was just about lacking moisturizer then, well yes, you’re partly right, but it also means the skin’s barrier has been compromised. A big no no! This means, adding moisture won’t resolve the dry skin issue alone, it needs a quality to seal it in. Rice bran has rich emollient properties that do just that. Without that sealing effect, all your hyaluronic acids and fancy serums struggle to maximize their results. Rich Bran = Heaps of Antioxidants Rice bran isn’t just here to hydrate — it’s bringing the whole skincare entourage. Packed with antioxidants like ferulic acid and those show-offy vitamin E cousins (a.k.a. tocopherols). Again, it’s all about shielding your skin. This is what’s needed for results. Protecting, soothing, brightening, and softening — all at once. Ok, where can I find it? Funny you should ask! Rice bran features in a number of our products, including our popular Anti-Blue Light Brightening Serum and our Anti-Fatigue Restorative Eye Cream So, let’s make skincare simple. No more ten-step routines or funny-named ingredients from the hidden amazon. It’s stress-free skincare with Matter of Monday.
