Uneven texture often shows up as bumps, flakiness, enlarged pores, or a general lack of smoothness.
It’s usually caused by a buildup of dead skin cells, slowed cell turnover, or damage to the skin’s surface from environmental stressors, past breakouts, or inflammation.

Steps you can take at home
- Double cleanse daily — it’s important to wash the day (and makeup) away.
- Exfoliate gently — skip the gritty scrubs & instead reach for chemical exfoliants like AHAs (for surface smoothing) or BHAs (for congestion) 2–3 times a week. They dissolve dead cells without disrupting your skin.
- SPF daily — sun damage is a major cause of uneven texture.
- Focus on hydration — your skin’s texture becomes worse when it’s dehydrated.
Layer a rich serum under your moisturiser to plump and soften. - Try retinol — it helps improve cell turnover and boosts collagen, which dramatically improves texture over time.
- Avoid extreme temperatures — boiling hot showers can strip the skin of oils.
- Eat the rainbow — raw, unprocessed wholefoods are a great way to get more antioxidants and combat inflammation. Highly processed foods show up in your skin, affecting its texture, clarity and colour.
