5 Skincare Secrets

  • Double Cleanse at Night

I started double cleansing once a day, at night and it transformed my skin beautifully. Double cleansing helps remove dirt, makeup, oil, skincare products, dead skin and all. This process leaves the skin clean, clear and healthy. I recommend double cleansing with an oil based cleanser first, followed by a water based cleanser, for the best results.

  • Invest in the Right Skincare Products

Investing in the right skincare products can’t be overemphasised. It does take a lot of trial and error before you find the right products for your skin, but it is worth the investment. I do a lot of trial and error with skincare products, and I always do a patch test 24 hours before using a new product to ensure it is right for me. Also, I pay a lot of attention to product reviews, description, and ingredients before using any product to make sure the product is what I need.

  • Clean Diet

Maintaining a clean diet will do wonders for the skin. I became a vegetarian a few years ago, and my skin still thanks me for it. If you are looking to really transform your look and overall health, ensure you maintain a healthy diet that is right for you.

  • Use Sunscreen Everyday

A popular skincare tip is to use sunscreen everyday even in the autumn/winter months. You should also apply sun protection at least once a day, even when you are indoors, regardless of your skin type. Sun protection is a must for everyone, so never skip this step in your skincare routine.

  • Be Gentle with your Skin

Apply skincare products with your fingers with gentleness. Daily cleansing and shaving can take its toll on the skin. Which is why being gentle is a must for skincare. Opt for gentle products that do not sting after application and ensure you test any new product at least 24 hours before application.

Double cleanse

I have recently started double cleansing, first with a cleansing balm, and then with a water based cleanser. I do this about twice a week and I fnd that it leaves my skin very clean and clear. For this tip to work effectively, you should ensure that you are using the right cleansing products that would not leave your skin dehydrated. I have been trying out some new luxury skincare products that are really good and I would writing some beauty review posts soon so keep your eyes peeled.

Wash your face with lukewarm water

Still on cleansing, this should be done twice a day, once in the morning and before bedtime at night. It is best to avoid using hot water when cleansing the face as this can strip tye skin, leaving it dry and dehydrated. Always cleans with lukewarm water or cold water if you can manage it. This also applies to the body, hot water can damage the skin if used excessively, so for glowing skin, stick to lukewarm water temperature.

Apply skincare products in the right order

Always start with the thinnest/lightest to the thickest when applying skincare products. So for example, it is cleanse, tone, serum, moisturiser, and face oil. Also, give about 2/3 minutes for each product to be fully absorbed into the skin before applying the next product.

Massage your skincare products into the skin

When applying your skincare products, take your time with each product and step, to ensure the skincare products are fully abosobed. Apart from the fact that face massages are really relaxing, they also help boost circulation which helps your skin glow. This is one tip I am doing a lot more of and I am love it.

Use sunscreen and stay hydrated

Using sunscreen every day helps protect the skin from harmful rays and prevents premature skin ageing. Some moisturisers have sinscreen, some don’t. So always check to see if you need to apply separate sunscreen and include this in your daily skincare routine.Also, remember to drink the recommend amounts of water to ensure overall health.

Cleanse

Cleansing is always the first step in a skincare routine. I use a cleanser and an exfoliating cleansing brush every morning and just a cleanser at nighttime. This keeps my skin clean, clear, and healthy looking. Cleansing properly is really important as it creates a clean foundation for the rest of the skincare products, and it also ensures the skin can soak in all the goodness from the products you are using.

Tone

Toning is the next step in the skincare routine and is another important step that is so easy to skip. A good toner removes all dead skin cells and any trace of dirt or excess oil. If you are looking to improve your skin, implementing a toner into your skincare routine is one of the fastest ways to get the job done.

Moisturise

To ensure your skin stays hydrated, soft, and supple, you should moisturise with a good serum and moisturiser for nighttime, and moisturiser and sunscreen for day time. This step can be the trickiest in the skincare routine because there are loads of options to choose from, and too many options can easily become overwhelming. The best way to go around this issue is to go for serums and moisturisers that suit your skin type. Also, observe how your skin responds, that way you know which skincare products are working well on your skin.
