Having beautiful and glowing skin is not something that only a few people are lucky enough to have. You, too, can achieve a smooth and radiant complexion by modifying your skincare routine. Firstly, it is essential to habitually clean your face twice a day with a gentle cleanser. This helps prevent pores from clogging and keeps your skin from appearing dull.
Exfoliate
Physical exfoliation uses RENU Advanced skincare products or tools with an abrasive texture to buff away the top layers of dead skin cells physically. This includes scrubs infused with sugar, plastic microbeads, finely ground abrasives like walnut shells, and manual scrub brushes. Chemical exfoliation involves using safe yet effective ingredients to dissolve the dead skin cells on the face and neck. This exfoliation can be performed at home with a peeling mask, wash-off scrub or done professionally as part of a microdermabrasion treatment or a peel from a dermatologist. Following a proper exfoliation routine is essential for the best results based on your skin type and tolerance.
Tone
A healthy glow is all about balancing the skin, and that’s where toner comes in! It brings the skin’s pH back to its natural acidic state, which helps reduce oiliness and prevent clogged pores. It also adds moisture to the skin, hydrating dry areas and soothing oily spots. And if you have fine lines, it helps tighten the skin for a younger appearance. Using a toner can help prime your skin for the rest of your skincare regimen, such as serums and moisturizers. It is similar to wetting a dry sponge to make it soft and flexible before using it to absorb moisture!
Moisturize
Moisturizing is one of the most essential parts of any skincare routine, especially when skin becomes more dry in cold weather. Moisturizing also helps prevent the formation of fine lines and wrinkles, a common sign of aging. The key to a great moisturizer is selecting the correct ingredients for your skin type. For example, those with oily skin should choose a light gel-like moisturizing product. At the same time, those with dry skin should use more emollient-rich products that contain shea butter and rosehip seed oil. Moisturizers are essential for the face, ears, and neck – areas susceptible to environmental changes and where aging occurs most frequently. Moisturizing daily will help to keep the oil glands from overproducing oils, which can lead to acne and clogged pores. The moisturizer will also provide a protective barrier to help protect against the elements.
Sunscreen
Protecting your skin from the harmful effects of the sun’s UV rays is essential to maintain healthy skin. It would be best to incorporate sunscreen into your daily skincare routine to help prevent skin damage such as sunburn, premature aging, and skin cancer. It is recommended to use broad-spectrum sunscreens that contain protective ingredients against both UVA and UVB rays for optimal results. These ingredients help prevent damage to your skin, which can cause a dull complexion and wrinkles. When choosing a sunscreen, look for a tinted formula with a natural finish. This type of sunscreen can give your skin a sheer coverage that looks like your bare skin while also evening out your skin tone for a more radiant appearance. Sunscreens that contain titanium dioxide can be beneficial in protecting essential skin proteins such as collagen, keratin, and elastin. They can also help prevent the formation of dark spots that may occur after a pimple has healed, such as melasma and post-acne hyperpigmentation. Remember to reapply sunscreen regularly to ensure optimal protection against harmful UV radiation.
