How to do skin care routine steps correctly
Introduction
We know the feeling of getting ready for bed and realizing that your face is so dry, it feels like sandpaper. Or maybe you suffer from breakouts that won’t go away no matter what you try. In an ideal world, we would all have perfect skin. But the truth is that everyone’s skin needs different types of care to stay healthy and glowing. So even though you may be tempted to skip a step or two in your daily routine, don’t! No matter how little time you have in the morning or how rushed you are at night, these steps will help make sure your skin looks and feels its best every day.
Cleanse
Cleansing is the first step in any skincare routine. You should use a gentle, non-irritating cleanser that won’t irritate your skin or leave it feeling tight and dry. Cleansers remove makeup, dirt, and excess oil from the surface of your face while also helping to prevent breakouts by keeping pores clear.
Cleanse twice a day–in the morning before applying makeup and at night after removing makeup with an oil-free remover–and pat dry with a towel before moving on to the next step (exfoliation).
Exfoliate
Exfoliation is the process of removing dead skin cells and other debris from the surface of your skin. It’s important to exfoliate at least once a week, but if you have oily or acne-prone skin, you may want to do it more often.
Exfoliants come in many forms: scrubs, microbeads (found in some facial cleansers), loofahs (a type of bath sponge) and even pumice stones can all help remove dry patches on your face while leaving behind fresh new cells that look healthy and glowing.
If you’re new to using an exfoliant regularly, start with something gentle like a sugar scrub or cream mask–and pay attention to how often works best for your unique needs!
Tone
To cleanse your skin, you should use a toner. Toners help remove any leftover dirt or makeup that was left on your face after cleansing. They also balance the pH of your skin and prepare it for moisturizer or serum application.
Tone with water can be done once or twice daily depending on how much time you have in the morning/night routine steps! If you’re pressed for time in the morning, try using a quick 5-minute morning routine instead of an entire hour-long one like I do!
Ingredients like tea tree oil are great because they have antibacterial properties which help reduce acne breakouts while also cleansing away debris from clogged pores (which leads to acne). If possible try using organic ingredients as well–it’s better for both your health and the environment!
Treat
Treatments are the fun part of your skincare routine. They’re the stuff that makes you feel like your skin is being pampered and cared for, which is great! Treatments can be a mask, serums,s or moisturizers; they can also be lotions or oil. You can even use treatments as toners if you want to go all out with them!
Treatments come in many forms: masks made of clay or mud; serums packed with vitamins and nutrients for your skin; creams that contain retinol (a form of vitamin A) so they help prevent wrinkles over time by stimulating collagen production in the dermis layer below the epidermis (top layer).
Moisturize
Moisturize your skin every day. This can be done by applying a gentle moisturizer after cleansing and toning your face, preferably in the morning before you apply makeup.
As with all other steps, choose a product that is appropriate for your skin type. If you have dry or sensitive skin, look for something lightweight yet hydrating; if oily or acne-prone, look for something oilier (but not too heavy); if aging rapidly due to sun exposure and smoking cigarettes all day long (like mine), consider using an anti-aging cream overnight so you don’t end up looking like an old hag before it’s time!
Apply generously but not too much–you don’t want clogged pores from excessive amounts of product sitting on top of them all day long! Avoid layering products on top of each other without letting each layer dry first; this could lead to irritation down the road as well as breakouts due to clogged pores being covered up instead of cleaned out properly through exfoliation processes like microdermabrasion treatments where grits are used instead of chemicals like those found inside most commercial scrubs which contain harsh ingredients such as alcohols which may irritate sensitive areas around eyes etcetera…
Follow these steps to get the most out of your skincare routine.
- Cleanse. This is the first step in your skincare routine, and it’s important to do this right. You should use a gentle cleanser that doesn’t contain harsh chemicals or fragrances.
- Exfoliate/Tone/Treat (optional). If you want to get rid of excess oil and dead skin cells from your face, exfoliating is a good idea! To do this properly:
- Put some sugar or salt into a bowl with water (about 1 tbsp for every cup of water). Mix until it forms a paste-like consistency; add more sugar/salt if necessary until it’s thick enough to spread evenly on your face but still thin enough not to hurt when applied directly onto sensitive areas like around eyes or lips where any extra pressure would cause discomfort during the application process itself so be careful not too much pressure while rubbing because then those areas will become red or irritated which isn’t good either so just remember these two things when doing any kind of manual labor activity such as washing dishes or scrubbing floors etc…
Exfoliating is also an important part of your skincare routine if you have sensitive skin or rosacea. The more often you exfoliate, the more fresh cells will be revealed and the less likely your skin will be irritated by products like makeup or sunscreen if you’re using a toner with alcohol, try to avoid it during the day. Alcohol dries out your skin and may leave it feeling tight or flaky. In addition, if you have sensitive skin, having any type of alcohol on your face for too long can irritate it but what are the best treatments for your skin? There are a lot of options out there, but I’m going to give you my top three favorites, what’s the difference? A moisturizer will make your skin feel soft and supple; an anti-aging cream will help reduce fine lines and wrinkles caused by sun damage (which is basically a form of premature aging)-Always make sure you have clean water to rinse off any sugar/salt residue from your face. -Don’t scrub too hard or fast, as this can cause irritation and redness…..
