The sun, pollution, screen lights, and many other factors damage our skin every day. That is why is primal to have, as basic as it may be, a daily routine to take care of our face.
The first thing to know is that the face skin is much more slender and delicate than the rest of your skin. To give you an idea, while your face skin is about 0.7 inches wide, your feet, for example, maybe about 0.19 inches wide.
The skin is the most important organ in our body so it is paramount to pay attention to it. Through it, we eliminate many toxins from our organism. We can forget that our skin has memory, so, if for example, we expose ourselves constantly to the sun, without appropriate protection we might suffer skin issues such as hypersensitivity, allergies, and more.
Aside from keeping a routine for your face skincare, you must follow these bits of advice:
The three essential steps for the best skin care: cleanse, moisture, and sunblock (this one should be of at least 30 SPF and wide spectrum).
- For the cleansing step it is important to consider the kind of product you will need. Some people benefit the most from a double cleansing technique, by removing makeup and dirt with an oil-based product, followed by a water-based cleanser or a micellar water-drenched cotton pad.
If you want to perform an upgraded routine for your face and apply some sort of serum, toner, scrub, and/or dermatologic prescription these should be applied after cleansing and before moisturizing.
Every skin is unique and the right kind of care changes from one person to another. However, some categories help you choose the right product for you, depending on your skin sensitivity, whether if it is dry, sensitive, greasy, or mixed. Being informed about the active ingredients will help you make the best show.
We can not be adamant enough when explaining the importance of using sunblock every day. Even if you are staying indoors.
Every day our skin is exposed to many sorts of lights, among UVA and UVY which radiate not just from the sun, but also our screens, smartphones, and all sorts of everyday gadgets.
Little by little our skin’s ability to regenerate at the necessary pace decreases. And the accumulated damage is reflected as dark spots, wrinkles, and other aging signs.
Remember to choose products with a wide spectrum protection factor of at least 30SPF. One of our favorites is the acclaimed Miracle Broth by LaMer, due to its fast absorption and amazing moisturizing.
