Let's all get our pen's and pencils and start writing down those new years resolutions; lose ten pounds, get out of debt, and of course achieve flawless skin! Don't forget your skin! Fact: did you know out of all the nutrients that you put into your body your skin is the very last to get any nourishment? Ladies we need to start now to take care of our skin... it won't be too long when the day comes that you wake up with three age spots and wrinkles galore!
Before we get too carried away lets get to the basics of skin. Three words: cleanser, toner, moisturizer. These three things are key into starting any kind of skin regimen. We all know the girl that can wear her makeup to bed and wake up looking refreshed and almost perfect the next morning, right? Pay no attention!!
Step One: Cleanser
Cleanser is the first and most important step out of all three! It gets off most if not all makeup and oil. Washing your face every morning and night is crucial! Imagine that your face was equivalent to washing down your back patio from dirt and leaves. When you wake up in the morning is it still perfectly clean the way you left it- dirt free? No! Although you may wash your face at night you can still get build up of bacteria, oil, sweat etc. all over your face.
Step Two: Toner
Toner is like using bleaching wipes- it does most of the dirty work and gets the job done. Toner helps remove and left over residue while giving you a tight finish without over drying.
Step Three: Moisturizer
This completes the whole package. Moisturizer brings your skin back to a neutral place and balances the skin. Key things you will want to look for on the back of skin care product labels are: Non-Comedogenic, Hypoallergenic, Fragrance Free, Alcohol Free. Each of these things prevent breakouts and keep your skin healthy!
