Let’s learn more about this in the blog-
Why is Skincare Routine Necessary?
Just like we eat, sleep, and take a bath at a particular time. Similarly, it is also necessary to have a skincare routine. A good skincare routine has many benefits apart from keeping your skin soft and smooth.
Let’s look at the benefits-
- Good Skin Health- Having a proper skincare routine helps to make your skin healthy and soft. Skin health does not mean using too many products on your skin, it is more about using proper products on your skin to keep them healthy.
- Skin Product Effectiveness- If you follow a proper skin routine then the products you use will have a good effect on your skin. It is more about applying good ingredients on your skin and increasing the skin’s effectiveness.
- Save Time and Cost- A proper skincare routine helps to save time and cost. It is good to use high-quality skin products with ingredients matching your skin, so that it saves you time to get healthy skin.
- Gives you Flawless Skin- When you follow a proper skin routine, your skin becomes addicted to steps and behaves the way possible. This helps to shrink the pores and give your skin a flawless look.
Basic Skincare Routine
1. Cleanser-
This is one of the basic steps in the skincare routine. It is very important to cleanse your face with a cleanser to remove any dirt, dust, and pollution.
- Wash your face.
- Take a small amount of cleanser.
- Rub it on your face. Do not do it harshly.
- Wash it off with lukewarm water.
2. Toner-
A toner is applied on the face when you wish to remove the minute specks of dirt too. They are formulated with ingredients that help to restore your skin’s health and remove any dryness.
3. Moisturizer-
Moisturizer is like pampering your skin with love and care. Every time you wash your face; it is necessary that you apply moisturizer on it. Moisturizer helps to keep your skin soft, smooth and supple. It protects your skin from the outer environment, leaving your skin hydrated.
It is very necessary to keep in mind your skin type, before you choose and apply any moisturizer.
4. Sunscreen-
Many moisturizers contain SPF, but applying sunscreen differently protects your skin the most. Sunscreen forms a protective layer on your skin which not only protects it from free radicals but also from harmful UV rays.
Continuous exposure of UV rays on your skin causes wrinkles, uneven skin tone, and early aging.
5. Exfoliation-
This is one of the steps, which we all tend to miss a lot. Exfoliation of skin once a week is necessary to keep the dead skin cells away and clear the pores. Always make sure to gently exfoliate the skin, as harsh rubbing can harm your skin cells.
6. Serum-
Serum is another skincare product, which we often tend to ignore. It is filled with ingredients like antioxidants and retinol that help to take care of the skin and improve the skin texture.
