Morning Skincare Routine

In the morning, gently cleanse the skin to remove any excess oil and residue from nighttime products.

Apply a moisturizer to hydrate and protect. The final essential step is sunscreen - use a broad-spectrum formula with an SPF of at least 30.

Mineral sunscreens with zinc oxide or titanium dioxide provide physical UV protection, though some find they don't layer well under makeup.

Chemical sunscreens absorb and convert UV rays, often providing a more cosmetically elegant feel. Find the right sunscreen for your skin through trial and error.

 

Evening Skincare Routine

Thoroughly remove any makeup, sunscreen, or heavy products from the day by double cleansing - first with an oil cleanser to break down product residue, then second with a gentle water-based cleanser to wash away oil and impurities without stripping skin.

Micellar water is another effective makeup remover. After cleansing, apply any leave-on treatments like serums, toners, exfoliators, or prescription products if using. Finish with a rich night cream or moisturizer to nourish skin overnight.

 

Special Considerations for Different Skin Types

Those with acne-prone skin should look for products labeled non-comedogenic, meaning they are formulated not to clog pores and cause breakouts.

Thick creams or heavy products should be avoided.

Fungal acne caused by yeast overgrowth resembles acne but requires prescription antifungal treatment.

Acne-fighting ingredients like azelaic acid, benzoyl peroxide, and chemical exfoliants can help manage mild to moderate acne.

People with sensitive, dry, or conditions like eczema or psoriasis should see a dermatologist to develop a treatment plan. Avoid heavily fragranced products which can cause reactions.

Colloidal oatmeal, hyaluronic acid, and squalene are gentle ways to relieve dryness and sensitivity without irritation.

Always do a patch test when using a new product.

 

Choosing Effective Skincare Products

When purchasing skincare, look for products containing proven active ingredients with clinical data supporting their efficacy.

Terms like “clean” and “natural” are not standardized.

Seek out non-irritating formulas free of added fragrances, parabens, and phthalates. Just because a product is natural does not mean it can’t cause reactions.

Consult a dermatologist if you are uncertain about what is best for your skin type. And don’t forget to change pillowcases regularly to minimize acne!
