GUIDE: SKINCARE

[jesuischriste]

Now i know there's millions. But i'm stupid and don't understand chemicals so here is a basic guide

THE MOST BASIC ROUTINES
AM

FACEWASH( ONLY IF YOU HAVE PARTICULARLY OILY SKIN
MOISTURISER ( oil-based if u have dry skin, or cream for combination skin)
SPF( ALWAYS GET SPF . IF U DON'T GET SUNSCREEN YOU'LL AGE HORRIBLY)



PM
FACEWASH
TONER/CLEANSER ( OPTIONAL BUT I LIKE IT)
MOISTURISER

"wtf is skin types"
here lol do this

Cleanse your face thoroughly with a mild cleanser and gently pat dry. Leave skin bare (and do not apply any additional moisturizers, serums or treatments). After 30 minutes, examine your cheeks, chin, nose and forehead for any shine. After another 30 minutes, evaluate whether your skin feels parched, especially if you smile or make any other facial expressions. If your skin feels tight, your skin is likely dry. If there is noticeable shine on your nose and forehead, your skin is mostly likely normal/combination. If there is shine on your cheeks in addition to your forehead and nose, you most likely have oily skin.

RECCOMENDATIONS : keep in mind these may not be available where you live

FACEWASH( ONLY IF YOU HAVE PARTICULARLY OILY SKIN

No. Cleanse every morning regardless of skin type..
However, if you have a particular skin condition such as sensitive skin, basic water washing would be a minimum requirement.

MOISTURISER ( oil-based if u have dry skin, or cream for combination skin)
SPF( ALWAYS GET SPF . IF U DON'T GET SUNSCREEN YOU'LL AGE HORRIBLY)

Low IQ, just get a non-comedogenic morning catered moisturizer w/ SPF

Cleanse your face thoroughly with a mild cleanser and gently pat dry. Leave skin bare (and do not apply any additional moisturizers, serums or treatments). After 30 minutes, examine your cheeks, chin, nose and forehead for any shine. After another 30 minutes, evaluate whether your skin feels parched, especially if you smile or make any other facial expressions. If your skin feels tight, your skin is likely dry.
