The best way to improve your complexion is to practice a regular cleansing routine. The basic routine includes cleanse, exfoliate, tone and moisturize. This daily routine should carry you on your way toward healthier skin. Select a gentle skin cleansing solution that works for your specific type of skin - dry, oily, normal. Using your selected product, cleanse your face in a circular motion and rinse with lukewarm water, do not use hot water as it reduces your skin’s moisture content.
Follow the cleansing stage with an exfoliant. A granular product is especially effective in smoothing rough areas and releasing dead skin cells, allowing the face to better absorb moisturizing product.
After the exfoliation process, use a toner or an astringent to tighten skin and remove any makeup or cleanser residue. A nice alternative to a toner or astringent would be doing a facial masque at least once a week, which works on clogged pores while also firming skin and leaving it soft and silky.
Finally, pat skin dry with a soft towel but do not dry up all the water. Apply a moisturizer to help protect skin from dryness. Those who have oily skin do not have to moisturize as often as those who have dry, normal or combination skin.
By following the daily skin care routine along with drinking lots of water, exercising and protecting your skin from sun damage, you should soon notice positive results. A good routine takes time, remember to practice it daily.
