In modern times, careful care of the facial skin is necessary. Moreover, facial care should be changed twice a year – in winter and summer.

Facial care consists of five stages: cleansing, masking, toning, moisturizing, and protection.

The first stage: cleansing the facial skin with gentle products. For different skin types, they can be gel-like or cream-like. This stage of facial skin care removes various impurities – dust, skin oil, soot from exhaust fumes.

The second stage: masking. A mask is deep cleansing of the skin, exfoliating dead epidermis. After the mask, the skin becomes clean and there is a feeling that it “breathes.” Masks are recommended to be done no more than three times a week – depending on the skin type.

The third stage: toning. Using toner helps to tighten the pores on the face and moisturize the skin. Some types of toners are not recommended for use on unclean skin, as dirt may remain in the pores and later cause inflammation.

The fourth stage: moisturizing. Moisturizing is necessary for the facial skin just as water is necessary for the body. Dry, unmoistened skin looks dull and lifeless. Even very oily skin requires moisturizing. In modern cosmetology, there is a wide selection of moisturizing creams for various skin types. More and more often, recommendations for using moisturizing creams with sun protection SPF are heard. In the summer, it is recommended to use moisturizing cream with high SPF, in winter – lower. Many cosmetic companies also offer additional products for skin moisturizing.

The fifth stage: protection. Foundation and powders can act as protection for facial skin. Our skin needs protection from various harmful factors – dust, smog, exhaust gases, tobacco smoke. The facial skin needs to be “dressed” just like we dress our body.

Following all these rules is not that difficult. Nowadays, there are many cosmetic companies that constantly improve their products, using new technologies, such as “2 in 1” or “3 in 1.” All of this is developed to reduce the amount of time and simplify the use of cosmetic products. And no one has canceled “grandmother’s recipes.” The most important thing is not to be lazy and to follow the advice of cosmetologists.

If you carry out daily care for your facial skin, it will respond with radiance and beauty.
