6 skincare tips you might want to know!"
- Tip: Don't forget to exfoliate
The accumulation of dead skin cells can lead to dull complexion and clogged pores. Regular and proper exfoliation results in a brighter, livelier, clearer, and more beautiful skin, enhancing the effectiveness of active ingredients.
- Tip: Don't always seek moisturization in cream form
If your skin remains dry even after proper moisturization, turn to other skincare steps for extra hydration. Nourishing facial cleansers, moisture-binding serums, and hydrating sunscreen products can effectively replenish the skin's moisture content.
- Tip: Double cleanse
At the end of the day, start your evening skincare routine with refreshed skin. It's important to thoroughly remove all impurities, makeup, and sunscreen residue from the skin surface. Skipping this essential step can lead to clogged pores, oilier skin, and ineffective absorption of active ingredients. Double cleansing serves this purpose, with the first step being an oil-based cleanser, followed by a water-based cleanser.
- Tip: Reapply sunscreen every two hours
Sunscreen instructions often include reapplication every two hours. Why? Because the UV-protective agents begin to degrade during their effectiveness. This means you'll likely need to reapply sunscreen in the morning and afternoon to provide optimal protection against sun rays throughout the day. Remember, UV rays can penetrate through glass (even on cloudy days).
- Tip: Excessive moisturization can do more harm than good
If you have dry skin, repeatedly applying an extra-thick textured moisturizer throughout the day might not necessarily help. In fact, excessive moisturization can worsen dryness by hindering the production of the skin's natural moisturizing oils. Soothing, improving, and smoothing dry skin lies in using an effective moisturizing product twice a day - and the right product only requires a small amount. Additionally, it's beneficial if it contains other soothing, barrier-strengthening ingredients, such as Maruderm Skin Protecting and Regenerating Barrier Face Cream, or our Centella Soothing and Moisturizing Face Cream.
