3 Steps to Help Keep Your Skin Smooth, Soft and Hydrated for the Spring and Summer

Here are 3 easy and basic steps to you skin routine that will keep you feeling fresh, smooth and hydrated for spring and summer.

 

Cleanse, Tone, Moisturize

Cleanse :

Cleansing is a vital part of the skincare regimen. Throughout the day and as we sleep, our body produces and accumulates waste. In order to purify, refresh and maintain the skin, it needs to be thoroughly cleaned. The more mature the skin, the deeper the crevices for dirt to hide. Without a great cleanser, debris builds, clogging pores, inhibiting regular collagen production, and enhancing lines and wrinkles.  

 

Toner:

Toner is a key step in an effective skincare regime - it follows the application of the cleanser. Think of a toner as your back up to ensure all traces of dire and impurities have been removed, allowing skin t breathe and generate the proper collage, elastin and moisture needed for healthy, glowing, youthful-looking skin.

 

Moisturizer:

 After using toner, remember to moisturize. Moisturizer protects the skin by locking in natural moisture, which is vital in the fight against the signs of aging. A good quality face moisturizer will help to hydrate all skin types. Despite popular belief, people with oily skin types should still moisturize. During the day choose a dedicated moisturizer which is usually lighter in texture and often ‘carries’ environmental protectors such as antioxidants and SPFs. Complement your day cream with a night cream to aid the restoring and renewing processes of your skin while you sleep

 

Additional Considerations for your skin care regime:

You may want to use a serum to help to give you additional protection against the environment and the natural aging process. Look for one that provides a strong antioxidant, hydrates, promotes healthy skin elasticity and firmness and healthy cell growth for a smooth radiant looking skin.
