Just to follow upon my last post
(skin routine) I thought I’ll sum the general idea of a successful skin care
routine for you guys. No matter what your skin type is or what products you are
using the same principle applies to all.
1. Resist the temptation
to touch your face-Try to avoid touching your face as much as possible as this
can transfer bacteria and dirt to your face blocking your pores which then will
make you break out like there’s no tomorrow!
2. Determine
your skin type- it is important to know your skin type because you don’t want
to use the wrong products which will not work for you and might actually worsen
the problem. And just remember what works on me might not work on you. Why? Because
we are all different.
3. Never
pick, squeeze or pop your pimples - no matter how tempting it is. NEVER!!!..
Yes it’s tempting but never squeeze any pimples because you will regret it
later when a little bad man appears on your face. Not nice huh!!
4. If
you don't already have them, you will need to buy or make your own cleanser,
toner, moisturizer, defoliant & a face mask. Yes they all can be homemade
or obviously can be purchased from any store just be careful not to buy harsh
products especially if you have acne prone/ sensitive / dry skin (like me)
5. Cleanse
tone and moisturize twice a day - once in the morning before you put on makeup,
and once at night before you go to bed. This is just to keep your face hydrated
all day and night to avoid dry skin.
6. A
few minutes after cleansing, tone your face with toner and a cotton pad-Toner
is used to restore your skin's natural pH levels which were probably changed
during cleansing. You just need to apply a small amount of toner to a
cotton pad and simply wipe over your entire face avoiding the eye area.
7. So
after cleansing and toning you should moisturize with a face moisturizer for
your skin type. Even if you have an oily skin still moisturize with
an oil free moisturizer.
8. Once
or twice a week, in place of your daily cleanser, you should exfoliate with an
exfoliating facial wash- make sure it’s not too harsh on your skin..Do your
research on the products you are interested in before purchasing.
9. Apply
a face mask regularly.
10. Stick
to your routine! This is the important thing make sure you stick with it,
however if after a month of using a routine and you can't see any difference
within your skin, change products to see what works best for you....no matter
what you use these are the steps you need to follow.
Thank for reading...Hope this was
helpful.
