Out of the 78 organs of the human body, skin is the largest, and also one of the most important. Skin possesses an array of functions it performs, including protecting our internal organs from environmental hazards and diseases, regulating body temperature, retaining moisture, removing toxins, and producing vitamin D. Because of this, it is vital to begin taking care of our skin.
When thinking about which products to incorporate into your skin care schedule, the order of products, benefits, and knowing which products work best together is crucial to maintain a steady and successful routine. Regardless of your skin type, there is a basic daily routine of essentials that benefits and rejuvenates everyone’s skin.
For beautiful, better, and brighter skin these 5 steps are a must for daily skin care:
- Cleanser: Everybody needs a good face wash, because washing with just water is not enough to clean your face. Using a cleanser allows the other products you use to work even better.
- Toner: Toning is often the most overlooked, but one of the most important, steps in a healthy skincare routine. Toners work to hydrate and revitalize the skins surface all while balancing the skin’s pH levels, minimizing pores, and perfectly prepares the skin for serum and moisturizer absorption.
- Exfoliate: Exfoliating removes the buildup of dead, dull, rough and uneven skin. Not exfoliating causes clogged pores, uneven skin tone, and deeper wrinkles and fine lines.
- Serum: Serums rich with antioxidants benefit the skin in multiple ways including: from calming redness to improving the appearance of wrinkles, skin texture, and helping skin look and feel firmer and more radiant.
- Moisturizer: Moisturizers are significant in helping to keep the skin’s appearance smooth, plumped, and soft. Moisturizers can be used around the eyes, but an eye cream can also be substituted or applied over the moisturizer.
If you have an additional desired area of skincare that you’d like to specifically target – such as acne, clogged pores, wrinkles, lack of firmness, dehydration, uneven skin tone, large pores, etc. – just integrate your product of choice to this essential skin care routine above. You can apply this additional product, as needed, before or after moisturizing.
Just like anything else, skincare requires practice and dedication. Some experimentation is required to discover which methods, products, and frequency works best for your skin, and after some time, you will be enjoying the best skin of your life!
