Facial Skin Care
How to properly care for the skin of the face? What are the stages of daily care? On what principle to choose cosmetics? Today we will reveal all the rules of home face care.
Importance and necessity of facial care
We can talk endlessly about the fact that the face is a mirror of our age and health... This is certainly true – but there are also more pragmatic reasons why comprehensive facial care should be a mandatory routine every day.
It is important to understand that daily facial care is not only a concern for the current condition of the skin: its cleansing, nutrition, moisturizing and strengthening. This is also serious work for the future. Properly selected skin care allows you to fight the signs of premature aging, dehydration, the appearance of fine wrinkles, ptosis (sagging skin) and hyperpigmentation.
How to care for the face: the basic rules of care
The basic rules of facial skin care can be quite simple and easily enforceable. If you do not know where to start a well-organized and systematic facial care, we first recommend checking your daily routines with our checklist.
Cosmetics correspond to the type of skin
The selection of beauty products often occurs under the impression of the general description of their actions: a cleansing gel, a moisturizer, a strengthening serum - or to search for certain ingredients in the composition, taking into account the needs of the skin. However, the same main ingredient may need, depending on the type of skin, different complementary components.
For example, CeraVe cleansing gels: one for oily and normal skin and the other for dry, "uneven" skin will have fundamentally different auxiliary components. The first forms an intense cleansing foam, and the second has a soft cream gel texture.
Care is regular
Home skin care is simply obliged to be daily and comprehensive - regardless of life situations, fatigue or the situation around. Even on vacation, business trip, after parties or children's parties, it is necessary to allocate time for the usual beauty routines, without missing a single stage.
Care is consistent
Properly selected facial care can consist of certain stages, such as:
- Purification
- Toning
- Moisturizing / Nourishing / Strengthening
In addition, several times a week it is recommended to practice:
- exfoliation (ridding the skin of dead cells) with, for example, a scrub or peeling;
- the use of cosmetic masks, selected for the individual needs of the skin.
