Perfect skin requires perfect ingredients! Check out our guide to developing the perfect skin care plan for you.
1. Cleanse Daily
The right facial cleanser will clarify your skin without stripping away essential oils. The oils on your skin aren’t all bad! These oils contain healthy nutrients designed to keep your skin moisturized. Washing away these oils at the end of the day is important, but you don’t want them stripped away completely. Take some time to find the right cleanser for your skin. For example, those with dry, red skin should try cream or a lotion. However, if your skin is more oily, a foaming liquid may be right for you. Your facial cleanser depends on your skin, so take some time to explore your options.
2. Use a Toner
Toners are essentially a supplement for your skin. The liquids deliver a blast of nutrients to the skin and help your skin to absorb products better. They also help your skin and complexion remain balanced. When selecting a toner, it’s important to note whether it includes a few key ingredients. Alpha and beta hydroxy acids are a common ingredient in most toners because it helps the skin gently remove dead cells that may be clogging pores. Hyaluronic acid helps to boost hydration and seal in moisture. Vitamin E and C are also common ingredients that help the skin fight daily exposure to free radicals that expedite the aging process.
3. Moisturize
Moisturizers are essential for moist, hydrated skin. Moisturizers prevent water loss at a cellular level. They also complement the protective oils found naturally within the building blocks of the skin. As you age, your skin naturally loses the ability to retain moisture. Exposure to the elements and daily washing can strip the skin of natural hydration. Once again, the texture of your skin influences how moisturizers will interact with your face. Explore your options and find the moisturizer that works best for you!
4. Apply a Sunscreen
It’s a fact: Sunscreen is the most important part of any skin care routine. Daily sunscreen usage prevents fine lines and wrinkles more than any other product. Ultraviolet rays from the sun are your skin’s biggest weakness. As you age your skins ability to protect itself from sunlight declines. Prevent wrinkles now, and apply a daily moisturizer with a built-in broad spectrum SPF of at least 30.
