3 steps for every one
In order to let your skin function at its best, allow these 3 steps in your daily regime that can work for you at any point of life.
Cleansing
Toning
Moisturizing
1. Cleansing
That may sound to be a very simple or basic thing. But we all know how little is needed to transform clogged pores into imperfections. Face washing allows cleansing all the dirt as well as the sweat and sebum secreted by our skin reducing the appearance of skin imperfections to grow. For these reasons, facial skin should be cleaned at least twice daily.
2. Your Facial Cleanser
It’s important to use a cleanser that is intended for your face without stripping natural moisture from it. HereÔÇÖs what to look for!
3. Toning
Use toner right after cleansing to redress the skin and rev it up with an extra shot of nutrient. Toner contains specific ingredients that soothe the skin and readies it for skin care treatment.
Always choose a toner that is pH- balanced with some of the following hero ingredients:
4. Moisturization
This one is the biggest beauty tip that your mom would offer you. Indeed it is! Applying moisturizer religiously all year round can prevent your skin from drying out and reap you with hydrated and soften skin.
5. How to pick a moisturizer?
Everyone can benefit from moisturizing their skin every day. However, ItÔÇÖs about choosing the right one and applying it the right way. Consider this your cheat-sheet!
6. Powerful skin allies- Serums
With Serums, your skincare spectrum tends to be high on the price end. But all for a pretty good reason! Serums are filled with concentrated active ingredients that penetrate deeply into the skin to address almost all skin concerns, from dark spots to wrinkles. So, whenever you go to buy serums, lookup for the following ingredients.
7. Sunscreen Protection
ItÔÇÖs unanimously the best thing you can do for better skin in the future just like moisturization. Sunscreen is the only defense against darkening, pigmentation, and changes in the appearance of pores over time. To make it simple for you, remember to use a moisturizer with sunscreen built in of broad SPF spectrum of 30.
illaaj Tip: Apply sunscreen 30 minutes before sun exposure, and reapply at least every four hours.
8. Sunscreen Formula
There’s always a debate over using a physical and chemical sunscreen available in the market, each with its own pros and cons. Choosing a combination of both would be more effective protection from hazardous UVA and UVB rays.
9. Night  Bright
Your skin absorbs active ingredients better at night than it does during the day, which makes night creams an amazing source of replenishing and repairing the skin cells that you might have picked during the day.
10. How to choose a night cream?
Ensure it is fragrance-free and not too thick which can block your pores and not allow your skin to breathe.
11. Sequence Matters
According to dermatologists, applying skincare products in the proper order is incredibly important to ensure your skin receives full benefits of each product.
An easy rule of thumb is to apply your products with the thinnest consistency to thickest, or from liquid to oil.Check out in detail here!
12.  Makeup Users
The one thing makeup lovers should remember is to take it off before going to bed. Because your skin renews while you sleep and when you leave makeup on, ┬áyou’re preventing that from happening. Use a makeup remover and then moisturize your face to ensure your skin breathe right and stays plump and flawless.
13. Healthy Diet. Healthy Skin
When it comes to healthy skin, diet does affect your skin. Fill in your plate with fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, and other nutrient rich foods. Avoid certain foods commonly eaten by adolescents in our culture that can badly affect your skin. These foods include soft drinks, sugary snacks and all types of junk food.
14. Live Well
Too much secretion of stress hormones can weaken your skin, bring on acne and even accelerate wrinkling. So exercise regularly, get rest, meditate and find ways to feel positive and happy.
Hope you will follow this amazing skincare guide to arm yourself with best skincare choices for your skin.
