A morning skincare routine will help you start your day off with clear, glowing skin. An effective routine not only takes away the overnight impurities and hydrates the skin, but also prepares it for a natural radiance. Following a morning beauty routine does not have to be complicated and in this post we will show you one that is very easy, but effective for waking up with radiant skin.
Morning Skincare Routine
Step 1: Cleanse
Start by cleansing your face with a mild gel cleaner, dispensing it on damp skin for about 30 seconds. Wash off using warm water and pat the skin dry with a clean towel.
Step 2: Tone
Use a toner to balance skin’s pH, remove any leftover impurities and prep your skin for further products. Use toner to moisten a cotton pad and then trace it around your face.
Step 3: Essence
Essence delivers active moisture-attracting ingredients to the skin and regenerates the epidermis. Place a few drops on the palm of your hand and gently dab it onto your face and neck.
Step 4: Serum
Use a skin serum which has ingredients such as vitamin C, niacinamide or hyaluronic acid (for targeting dark spots, fine lines for hydration.)
Step 5: Moisturize
Do this and then finish it off with a light breathable SPF that is at least 30+. Spread as evenly, get it to all of the exposed areas on your skin.
Step 6: Eye Care
Do not ignore your sensitive eye zone. Use an eye cream or serum to get rid of dark circles, puffiness, and fines lines.
