Here are 5 things that we should always do to take care of our skin.
- Remove makeup. One bad things about makeup is that it clogs pores. When we don’t remove that makeup it can be even more clogging. Our skin repairs itself during the night, and with a layer of makeup sitting on top of it, it can’t do this properly.
- Cleanse. This goes hand in hand with removing makeup. Once your makeup is removed its important to cleanse your face. This removes dirt and grime sitting on your face and in your pores from the day. If this isn’t washed off, it can cause breakouts and uneven texture. It’s also important to cleans your face in the morning because we produces excesses oils and dead skin overnight.
- Moisturise. It’s essential to moisturise and keep your skin hydrated whether you have dry skin, oily skin, or combination skin. Dry skin can be one of the first things that age your skin. When we keep our skin moisturised is balances out the levels of water in our skin and keeps it plump and fresh.
- Wear SPF. I can’t stress enough how important it is to always wear sunscreen under your makeup during the day. Or to wear foundation with an SPF. The sun is one of the main causes of skin aging and wrinkles. Even if we can’t see sun damage now it can show up several years later. Just the small act of applying sunscreen in the morning can reduce the damage to your skin in years to come!
