Yes, I know, in the world abundant in various skin care products and tips on how to use them, coming up with the right routine can be a little bit overwhelming. But, our protective layer takes up on so many challenges on daily basis. Not only is it affected by weather and other external factors, but the way we treat it, too. What we apply on our skin is consumed by our body, which means that, besides beauty and confidence, taking improper care of the skin influences our health just as much. So, learning how to create a natural skincare routine is of great importance.
First things first – learn your skin type
Not all of the skin care beauty tips and products are formed to meet everyone’s needs and expectations. They are actually composed to deal with the problem related to the certain type of skin. Whether your skin is dry, oily or combination, it has specific characteristics and requirements. Therefore, instead of following every advice on your skin care routine you come across, make sure you are certain what your skin type is.
Natural skincare routine for oily skin
Since oily skin has a natural ability to excessively produce oil, it is hard to handle and usually prone to causing whiteheads and blackheads. Therefore, getting rid of all the dirt and bacteria that accumulate in your pores is all the more essential for those who have this type of skin. No matter how contradictory it might seem, using natural oil as a cleansing method is convenient for oily skin, as well.
Therefore, use the combination of castor and olive oil twice a day in order to keep your pores clean. And for deeper pore purification, apply clay mask only once or twice a week. When it comes to moisturizing and toning, opt for products containing aloe vera and hyaluronic acid. Also, if you have a problem with acne, argan oil can help you.
Natural skin care routine for dry skin
Dry skin is completely opposite from oily type. If you have a dry skin, your skin is less elastic and lacks hydration. Thus, moisturizing represents the part of your skin care routine that requires your serious attention. For this purpose, it’s always the best to stick to organic skincare product, such as shea butter. Apply it twice a day after a shower and your skin will stay smooth and hydrated. When you have this skin type, you should be careful with cleansing and opt for mild cleansers. Also, dry skin doesn’t have to be as much exfoliated as oily skin does.
Natural skin care for combination skin
Having a combination skin could be tricky since you have to deal with two different skin types simultaneously. Cleansing combination skin implies using lightly foaming cleanser instead of soap. Also, you should be very careful with moisturizing. It is important to find a moisturizer that will suit both dry and oily skin. Even though you are supposed to use lightweight moisturizers, there is a possibility that you would still have problem with T-zone.
It’s not all about skin
It doesn’t matter how much care you take about your skin, if you don’t take care of your overall health. Skin care routine also includes healthy habits. Therefore, you should consider changing your diet, lowering the stress and getting enough of good night sleep. Make sure you are taking sufficient amounts of water during the day. It affects skin hydration, of course, but bacteria and toxins, too.
Again, “not all of the skin care beauty tips and products are formed to meet everyone’s needs and expectations”. Hence, bear in mind that things provided above are only guidelines and suggestions how to create natural skin care routine. Each skin may react in a different ways, so be ready to experiment.
Happy Beautifying!
