With the right planning, you can age gracefully. As the decades go, by our skin changes. We’ve shared the template for building a skin care routine that lasts the test of time.
Choose a Great Cleansing Oil
Washing your face daily is necessary when it comes to skincare! The perfect cleanser offers a gentle, balanced wash, which will not strip the skin of moisture. Its recommend you wash your face twice a day, but for some, over-washing can lead to irritation. Do what works for your skin! Always wash your face after a work out to prevent workouts, and cleanse at night to clear your skin of any excessive moisture.
Use a Cleansing Balm
Cleansing balms have been all the rage lately—and for a good reason! Cleaning balms take all the moisturizing perks of oils and packs them into an emollient base that melts away stubborn makeup, dirt, and dander, leaving your pores squeaky clean. Apply the balm to dry skin, then follow up a gentle massage and a spritz of water. Remove the balm with a muslin cloth, then apply moisture as needed.
Exfoliate. Exfoliate. Exfoliate.
To trigger the repair process, you need to stimulate your skin. Regular exfoliation removes dead skin cells perched on the surface of your skin. As you get older, the cell regeneration process slows down, leading your body to shed skin cells at a slower rate. If you let old skin cells pile up, your skin will begin to look dull, dry and rough. Neglecting the process can also result in excessive oil build up and clogged pores. Choose your exfoliation methods by examining your skin type, sensitivity, and complexion. Those with extremely sensitive skin or severe acne should gravitate towards exfoliants that are gentle on the skin.
Don't Forget Your Toner
A toner’s job is to complete the cleansing process and seal in moisture on your skin. For the most part, toners are water-based liquids made up of special active ingredients; plant extracts and essential oils are popular additions. As you shop, look for a toner featuring rosewater or chamomile. Both of these ingredients are incredibly hydrating and clarifying, leaving your skin with a beautiful glow. After you cleanse, apply toner to your face using a cotton pad. Then, round off your routine by adding a bit of moisture!
