3. Setting up a healthy skin routine
Let`s start with the morning. The first thing you should do after waking u is to clean your face with a cleanser recommended for your skin type. After that apply a toner to make your skin firmer and finish by using a moisturizing cream. For summer, it is best to opt for a face cream that has protection against UV light because it will prevent your skin from dehydrating.
In the evening, you may follow the same routine, but you will have to choose a night cream specially designed for your skin type. This will help your skin regenerate during night and you will wake up with a fresh complexion. Also, a couple of times a week it is recommended to use an exfoliant in the evening in order to clean all the bacteria and dead skin that can appear on your face.
Properly cleaning your face is necessary if you want to avoid unwanted problems. Use gentle soaps for normal and combination skins. For oily skins, it is best to opt for cleansers that are oil-free in combination with a toner. Moreover, for sensitive and dry skin you will have to search for a cleanser that has no fragrance or alcohol, because it will diminish the chances of getting an allergic reaction.
4. Use a face mask once a week
Face masks are perfect for detoxifying your skin. They have the power of boosting circulation and replenishing important nutrients that your skin needs in order to be healthy. Keep in mind that using it once a week is more than enough. Overusing it can cause damage to the cellular level of your skin.
