7 Simple Skincare Routines for Healthier Skin

No two women's skin is the same. But there must be some common routines to take care of each unique skin. So here are seven simple skincare routines you need to adopt for rejuvenated skin. Let's find out about them below!

Routine 1: Cleansing and Removing Makeup

This is a very important step in your skincare ritual! Cleansing is the foundation of any skincare routine. First and foremost, cleaning removes impurities from the skin, leaving it looking radiant and ready to glow.

Furthermore, for a truly in-depth and complete cleanse, discover the magic of double cleansing, a two-phase skin cleanse. Initially, apply a cleansing oil or makeup remover to gently remove makeup, SPF, oil, and small dirt particles from your face.

After rinsing off the oil makeup remover, it is time to use a water-based cleanser to complete the deep cleansing of the skin. The perfect way to cleanse your face is to use a brush to ensure even deeper cleansing.

Routine 2: Scrub and Mask

At least once a week, include an exfoliation in your routine and enjoy a facial mask to pamper your skin for a few minutes. Exfoliation removes dead skin cells, stimulates circulation, and accelerates skin regeneration. Apply the exfoliator to a moistened face, massage with light circular movements, and rinse. 

After exfoliation, this is the ideal time to apply a facial mask with a high content of active ingredients to provide maximum nourishment for your skin. Choose the mask according to your skin's needs at that moment.

Routine 3: Face Serum

Are you looking for a solution to a specific skin problem? Facial serums are packed with active ingredients that offer different benefits. Some brighten, some hydrate, and some fight ageing. The ideal time to use a serum can also vary: some are more effective in the morning, while others give better results when used at night.

Always use your fingertips to gently smooth the serum onto clean skin, allowing it time to absorb. To help the serum penetrate the deepest layers of the skin, massage your face with facial massage accessories.

Routine 4: Eye Contour Cream

The delicate skin around the eyes is the first to show signs of ageing. Consequently, make eye cream a new must-have by incorporating it into your morning and evening skincare routine. Eye creams and serums help to smooth, plump, hydrate, and firm the skin around the eyes. Additionally, for more hydration, to stimulate collagen production, and to reduce puffiness, look to eye masks.

Moreover, always apply a small, pea-sized amount of eye cream. Gently apply from the corner of the eye. Lastly, remember to avoid applying cream directly to or around the eyelids.

Routine 5: Moisturise Twice a Day

Dehydration weakens the skin and makes it more susceptible to blemishes. It is, therefore, important to hydrate the complexion to eliminate the accumulation of fluid around the eyelids, prevent the appearance of blemishes, and, above all, restore its natural radiance. That is why it would be best that you moisturise your skin at least twice a day: once in the morning and once in the evening, immediately after using facial toner.

Likewise, if your skin is too dry, you can increase its hydration. You can do this by showering with warm water for just five minutes and using a fragrance-free soap. Also, when you leave the bathroom, you should dry yourself with soft towel and then apply a moisturising cream.

Don't forget to give your lips a luxuriously soft feel with a scrub or moisturising balm.

Routine 6: Perform Facial Massages

The face is a set of muscles that are in motion all day long. We do it when we smile, when we chew, when we worry... To relieve tension and stimulate blood circulation in this area, it is advisable to perform facial massages. This way, we also contribute to cell regeneration, which proves to be the most effective skincare routine.

Also, many YouTube channels teach you how to perform a relaxing facial massage. They consist of simple techniques, where the key is to play with the rhythm and intensity to make them effective.

Routine 7: SPF

The last step in your skincare routine should be a cream with SPF protection. It acts as an infallible guardian of your skin, which is exposed to the sun's harmful rays every time you go outside, even on cloudy days. Sunscreen prevents UV rays from damaging the skin, both on the surface and at the cellular level. By using it, you can prevent the appearance of pigmentation, wrinkles, dryness, and skin cancer as well.

Invest in the long-term health and beauty of your skin, and don't skimp on a cream with SPF. Apply enough cream to cover three full fingers and apply it to your face, ears, and neck.

Additional Tips

In summary, lack of time often prevents us from performing deep skincare daily. Many dermatologists reveal a series of tips for creating a basic skincare routine for every unique face. These are as follows:

• Use an appropriate cleanser: For dry skin, we recommend a cleanser containing ingredients such as niacinamide, panthenol, or glycerin. Glycolic acid and polyhydroxy acids are better for oily skin.
• Apply an antioxidant serum every morning: Ideally, it contains vitamin C, which protects against external agents. For sensitive or oily skin, those containing niacinamide, glycolic acid, or hyaluronic acid are more suitable.
• Use sunscreen: To prevent the signs of ageing and have beautiful skin, it is essential to use sunscreen every day.
