How do I keep my skin healthy?
simplicity can save your time, and your skin
We are not new for the words — less-is-more, same for skin. Simple skincare can actually better your skin! Before I learned a proper skincare routine, I always put extra, expensive items on my skin. When I find out I have serious dark head problems in summer, I put clay mask; before period there were some pimples happen, I pop them out with my dirt fingers; when I get tired after work, I clean my face randomly in the shower; during winter, I didn’t improve the moisturizing products; I use the popular brand cleanser for my face, BUT NOTHING HAPPENED. My skin was still full of dark heads, my face getting over oily in the afternoon, and while the season changed, my skin become sensitive and inner acne. If you have the same problem so far, tiled your seat bells! I am here to teach you the easiest but super helpful skincare routine!

Remove your makeup properly
“Today is such a long day, I only want to lie on the sofa! ”. I know, but before you doing that, you have to know how important it is. I don’t care how heavy or how light your makeup is, but if you don’t remove them properly, the makeup might suck in your pores. Once the pores are not clean enough, all the skincare products will be no functions and the dirt will be trapped in your skin, which will become pimples. We couldn’t guarantee how clean it is but you have to remove the makeup with makeup remover at least 3 times (full face). If you have eye-makeup today, don’t forget to use eyes makeup remover products (at least 3 times as well).
Cleanser
I believe everyone knows “wash the face with cleanser”, but do you know how to choose the cleanser?
Remember these 3 points, it might change your life.
- alcohol-free
-saponin-free
-foaming agent-free
Majority of the cleanser products come with these 3 ingredients. You might notice the cleanser you’ve used for a while. It’s bubbling, and smooth, after wash you even feel refreshing(dry). You need to pay attention on the ingredients list from the cleanser. These 3 ingredients are not only make you feel “clean” but it help 0 clean your pores. They stuck in your skin and hurt your skin.
Moisturizer
No matter what kind of skin you are, you need to moisture everyday! I don’t go a day without moisturizer, ever. All the skin type contain with fats and oil. They need something to help them cracking open, Moisturizer helps. It delivery that assistant to make your skin become soft. It also help you substitute the oil and fat. As long as you apply moisturizer on your face everyday, you can see the different soon!
Here is the moisturzer routien
-Lotion
-cream or gel
These 2 are the most basic products but it also keeps my face healthy for a long time. Choose the pure moisturizing like hyaluronic acid base, amino acid. More simple, more your face don’t reduce extra ingredients.
Face Massage
It is also one of my secret to make my face looks young and soft. Our face is just like other parts of body, it contains muscles and we talk and eat every day. It needs to take a rest, once we massage with our face, our skin has proper circulation it makes our face muscles relax and the product can absorb deep in the pores.
It’s my skincare routine, I am happy to share all the secret for you!
Thanks for your stay! If you have more ideas, please leave a comment and share together!
