Create the Perfect Skincare Routine: How to Build a Personalized Skincare Regimen – Building a Personalized Skincare Routine: The Key to Glowing, Healthy Skin
Assess Your Skin Type
- Determine whether your skin is oily, dry, combination, sensitive or normal
- Consider any specific skin concerns, such as acne or fine lines
Cleanse Correctly
- Choose a cleanser that is appropriate for your skin type
- Use lukewarm water and massage the cleanser gently into your skin
Exfoliate Regularly
- Use a gentle exfoliant, either chemical or physical
- Exfoliate 1-2 times per week, depending on your skin type
Apply a Serum
- Serums can target specific skin concerns
- Apply after cleansing, and before moisturizing
Moisturise Properly
- Use a moisturiser that is appropriate for your skin type
- Apply it while the skin is still damp to lock in moisture
Don’t Forget the Sunscreen, ever
- Use a sunscreen with at least SPF 30
- Apply it every day, even on cloudy days
Keep a Skincare Diary
- Keep track of the products you use and how your skin reacts to them
- Make adjustments as needed
