Jama makes skincare a priority. She revealed some of her secrets to WhoWhatWear. Jama says that she uses face masks from her collection of products. “If you've had a long day or late night, you're a bit run down or you just want to have a bit of a pamper, then the masks are perfect."
2. She Doesn’t Use Too Many Products

Jama tells WhoWhatWear that she tries to not put too many products on her skin. She says that she opts for a simpler approach. “In the morning, I try and use only a couple of products. I feel like when I use toners and everything else it doesn't really agree with me, so I'm more of a cleanser, cream, face mask kind of girl.”
3. She Uses Sunscreen
Jama makes sure to protect her skin from the sun. She tells WhoWhatWear that she always uses sunscreen. “Because it's so bloody hot in London at the moment, I'm using an SPF. I know that I need to use it every day, but I'm new to the SPF life. I had a struggle with them for years because sun cream would always just make me look really white, but now, I know they're getting better.”
4. She Changed Habits To Help With Her Skin

For Jama, skincare isn’t just about using products. She tells WhoWhatWear that she changed some of her regular habits to help herself out. “I realised that when I cut down a lot on sugar, my skin got way less spotty. I used to be eating ice cream pretty much every day and then I stopped doing that, and I stopped getting forehead spots! And just not touching your face as much… making sure your phone screen is clean and your pillowcases and stuff. I didn't even realise that was a thing, but I take more notice of what I'm putting up to my face now.”
5. She Prioritizes Her Workouts

Jama has a busy schedule, which means she doesn’t always have time to workout on a regular basis. However, she tells Women’s Health that she makes her workouts more intense, because she isn’t sure when she can get another one in. “It’s difficult with the job I have,” she says. “I can’t schedule workouts in advance. I have to grab them when I can, so I want to use that training time wisely.”
