The cosmetic jars can make your head spin and your skin confused: how should these be used and especially in what order?
Taking care of your skin doesn’t require a huge army of jars, although the 10-step Korean skin care routine was once a megatrend in the beauty world. At its simplest, a good skin care routine includes cleansing, face cream, eye cream and sun protection product. Everything else is extra that can do the skin good and make it look more beautiful.
On the other hand: the more products, the more ingredients there are to which the skin can be sensitized. Many skin care professionals recommend the simplest possible care routine.
This article will tell you when to apply the serum on the face and what is the best interval for sunscreen (which should also be used in the dark season). Simply put: skin care products should be applied from thinnest to thickest. This applies to skin care both in the morning and in the evening.
Choose the order that suits your jars from this list. Don’t forget to apply skin care products to your neck as well.
A fresh start to the morning
After waking up, you should first rinse your face with as cool water as possible. This way you feel refreshed and the world’s clutter leaves your eyes.
1. You should choose either as a cleaning product oil- or water-based putty.
2. Some people’s skin only needs water washing and wiping in the morning with face water. Facial toner can also be used after cleansing. Dab the product onto a cotton pad and go over the skin of both the face and neck.
3. Next you can pat your face treatment liquid i.e. the product like face water, which many people wonder how to use. The treatment liquid brings moisture to the skin and helps the following skin care products to be absorbed into the skin better, which means you get more out of your other skin care products.
4. Apply an antioxidant-rich skin brightener to your face serum. A sufficient amount of serum is about four drops.
5. Then put pimple treatment productif you need one.
6. Pat gently eye cream.
7. Pamper your skin with light with facial oil.
8. Then there is moisturizer turn. Spread about a euro coin’s worth of it on your face.
9. If you want, you can add more on top of the moisturizer thicker skin oil to bring more moisture. Especially winter skin will thank you for this.
10. Add as a last skin care product sunscreen. You need it throughout the year.
After sunscreen, you can apply make-up to your skin if you wish. Remember to add sun protection throughout the day, even in winter. Sunscreen is the most important and effective anti-aging product.
Wash the day away
Perhaps even a little more important than the beauty moment in the morning is a careful skin care routine in the evening. At the end of the day, it is important to clean the face of impurities, such as make-up and air pollution. During the night, it is good to apply care products to the skin, because they can really have an effect when you are resting.
1. Grab first for oil-based putty, with which make-up and, for example, flakes of physical sun protection leave the skin effectively. Check the side of the jar to see if the putter is applied to dry or damp skin. Instead of water, the oil cleanser can often be removed from the face with, for example, a muslin cloth or baby gauze.
2. Use a second water-based cleaning product, such as cleaning foamwhich cleans the skin effectively and also takes the first used oil cleaner with it.
3. Next is exfoliation or, for example, clay-based, cleansing mask turn. The gentle exfoliating product can be used almost daily, but exfoliating once a week is also good.
4. After exfoliation or cleansing mask, spray on your skin face water or lotion – this way your skin is soft and receptive to future care products again.
5. If your skin needs it acids, apply them to your skin first. Acids are often in the form of a serum, for example.
6. Then it’s their turn serums in order from thinnest to thickest.
7. Products intended for the treatment of pimples put on top of power seals.
8. Fourthly, it should be applied to the skin moisturizing serum or mask.
9. Then clap eye cream cheekbone to brow bone. The product should not go into the eyes.
10. Apply last night cream or mask.
+ If your skin needs even more moisture, finally it’s the oil’s turn! Press facial oil from your palms to your face. The oil seals the other products into the skin and you get the best effect from them during the night. Your skin will thank you.
