In recent years, extensive skincare routines have become quite a popular trend. Though it rose to popularity on social media, this trend has some merit behind it. By incorporating skincare into your normal hygiene routine, you can improve the health of your skin and get some extra confidence.
Healing From the Inside Out
No matter how many expensive products you use, your skin's health won't be at its best unless your nutrition is right. What you put into your body will always show up on your skin, so eating right will give you a head start on improving the quality of your skin.
Greasy and sugary foods can cause acne and extra oil production, so if you're struggling with your skin being too oily or you have uncontrollable acne, limit your intake of those foods.
Hydrating is also an important component in managing your skin's health from the inside out. Not only can it keep your skin from drying out, but it can prevent the premature aging and sagging of your skin. Adding a supplement like chlorella can boost the effects of your daily water intake.
Chlorella benefits include supported immunity and increased skin regeneration. This will help your skin repair itself and have a healthy glow. By managing your nutrition and hydration, you can give yourself a leg up on your skincare routine.
Cleansing Away Impurities
Once your nutrition is sorted out, the burden of your skin's health lies in the products you use. The first step you should use in your routine is a cleanser. A good cleanser will not only clean the dirt off your skin but also get deep into your pores to get any impurities that have gotten stuck there.
Oil and sweat can sink into your pores and make your skin look and feel grimy, even if there isn't physical dirt sitting on your face. Cleansing removes that debris and leaves your skin clean and glowing.
Depending on the type of skin you have, you have several different types of cleansers to choose from. Oil-based cleansers are great for those people who wear a lot of makeup. It will break down the excess product on your skin and allow it to be wiped away, however you should use another cleanser along with it if you don't like the feeling of oil on your skin.
Foam and gel cleansers are good for all skin types but don't get as deep into your pores. No matter your complexion, a cleanser is an important step in your daily skincare routine.
Moisturizing and Removing Imperfections
Finally, taking care of your skin should include moisturizers and masks. No matter how gentle a cleanser is, it inevitably will strip the natural oils from your skin and leave it dried out.
This dryness can lead to cracks and tears in your skin, which in turn can cause wrinkles and other imperfections. By regularly moisturizing, you can give your skin that protective barrier back and prevent wear and tear on your skin.
Masks and facial treatments can eliminate dry and dead skin cells that build up on your skin. These old skin cells sit on top of the healthy skin and give it a dry, flaky appearance, all while preventing any product from penetrating deeply where it's needed.
Exfoliants such as masks and serums can polish off that dead skin and leave your skin glowing and healthy. While it can be tempting to use these daily to stay radiant, you shouldn't use exfoliants more than once a week to avoid damaging the new skin cells on your face.
As for serums, many are designed to be used daily or bi-weekly for best results. By combining different products into your routine, you can have clear and perfect skin that glows from the inside out.
Overall, keeping your skin healthy shouldn't be a struggle. While there may be a bit of trial and error to find what works best for you, combining nutrition and good skincare will leave you with healthy, radiant skin.
