Skin Care Q & A
Why is skin care so important?
Your skin performs an array of essential tasks every day. But it’s also exposed to the elements and subject to damage from ultraviolet rays, dry air, and environmental debris.
Skin creates a powerful barrier between the outside environment and your body’s organs and other tissues, so keeping it healthy is critical.
When it comes to aging beautifully, skin care plays a central role. While it’s never too late to embrace a solid skin care routine, the earlier you begin, the greater the rewards.
Which products are part of a basic skin care routine?
The beauty and skin care industry is massive, and thousands of products vie for your attention. It’s no wonder many people have no idea where to begin in building their ideal skin care routine.
It’s easier than you might think. All you need to get started are a few essential products.
Cleanser
Cleansers remove makeup, excess oil, and debris from the surface of your skin. Many are formulated to help control oil, enhance moisture, or brighten your skin. Some options are creamy, foamy, or even oil-based.
Toner
A good toner eliminates any traces of oil or debris that remain after cleansing. Toners also prepare your skin to receive the next products in your routine.
Moisturizer
Moisturizers work to replenish and hydrate your skin. Be sure to choose a product designed for your skin type, as heavier moisturizers are best for dry or aging skin while lighter formulations are perfect for oily or acne-prone skin.
Sunscreen
It’s impossible to overstate the importance of wearing a high-quality sunscreen every single day. This is one of the most powerful ways to protect your skin and reduce the visible signs of aging.
Once you see how these basic products work for your skin, you can always add serums, masks, and other products.
