Daily facial skin care

Step 1: Cleaning / rinsing.

By cleaning / washing the skin, we remove sweat, grease, dirt and other contaminants that occur naturally on the skin during the day. To keep the skin pores clean and the face fresh, it is important to clean / wash the skin not only in the evening but also in the morning.

Tip:
If you use micellar water to clean your skin, do not leave any residue on the skin. Micellar water should always be rinsed with water to avoid skin irritation and clogging of pores.

Step 2: Toning.

Most cosmetologists agree that toning is an important adjunct to skin care that has a positive effect on the skin. The tonic removes the remnants of dirt left after cleaning the skin with a cleanser, helps to prepare the skin for better absorption of creams, restores skin PH, has an antiseptic effect.

Tip:
Apply the tonic immediately after cleansing the skin while it is still moist. Choose toners that do not contain alcohol so as not to dry out, damage or irritate the skin.

Step 3: Scrub / Peel

Exfoliation removes dead skin cells that have accumulated in the pores of the skin. The skin becomes fresher, brighter, absorbs better cosmetics. Exfoliation stimulates the lymphatic system, removes toxins, improves blood circulation.

Tip:
It is best to exfoliate the skin in the evening, after cleansing and toning, once or twice a week, depending on the skin type and condition. For example, if your skin is dry, scrub it no more than once a week to avoid damaging the skin's protective film. For dry, sensitive skin, it is recommended to choose enzymatic (enzymatic) or AHA acid scrubs. For oily, combination skin, look for a scrub that contains salicylic acid.

Step 4: Moisturize the skin

Moisturizing gives the skin a protective layer that retains moisture and maintains skin hydration. Remember that skin hydration is important at all times of the year. After applying the moisturizer, allow it to soak in.

Advices:
Drink enough water. Look for a moisturizer with an SPF of at least 15 for the day. Choose a moisturizer that suits your skin type. People with oily skin should choose lighter creams, and people with drier skin should choose heavier textures.

Step 5: Sun protection

The sun is the most harmful factor for the skin and the leading cause of skin cancer. This is why it is important to use a moisturizer that contains SPF, or apply extra sunscreen after the moisturizer.

Tip:
Choose a cream with at least 15 SPF for the day. If it is not possible to re-apply the sunscreen every few hours, use loose powder with SPF throughout the day. Prefer mineral filters because they do not cause allergies, do not penetrate the epidermis, are photostable. Remember that sun protection is a must at all times of the year!

Let's be healthy and beautiful!
