A skincare routine should be followed regularly for the best results. Daily skin and facial care is much more effective in making us look beautiful than any cosmetics in the world. Also, a healthy balanced diet and an efficient digest-absorb-assimilate cycle inside your body are crucial for vital, healthy skin. Toning is an important step in the daily skincare routine because it removes any lingering impurities or greasy residue and helps balance the pH of the skin. It closes the pores and stimulates circulation, helping to prepare the skin to absorb nutrition from the moisturizer that follows. Wash your face with lukewarm water. Apply the mask with smooth upward strokes with your fingertips or a ball of cotton.

A daily skin care regimen should start as early as infancy and continue throughout one's life. One of the most valuable steps in the regimen can be protection from the UV rays, sunscreen should be applied as the last step anytime there will be exposure to the sun. Use a foaming gel face wash if you have a combination skin. If your skin is more oily and prone to breakouts, then you will need a facial wash that specifically targets these conditions. For maximum skin care benefits, the basic routine is usually insufficient, especially for people over thirty. Adding a well-selected product or two with wisely chosen, scientifically proven active ingredients can further improve your results.

Four basic rules for proper skin care:

1. Cleansing

2. Exfoliate

3. Tone

4. Moisturize

Daily skin care Tips:

1. Each day when you take your bath or shower, try to use luke warm water. Hot water dries out the skin.

2. Avoid using harsh soaps which dry the skin. Deodorant soaps are often very harsh and drying.

3. When toweling dry, do not rub the skin. Blot or pat dry so there is still some moisture left on the skin.

4. Sunlight causes skin cancer, aging and wrinkles of the skin. Nothing is more important for daily skin care than avoiding sunlight.
