There are so many things we are told to do in order to have the best overall beauty regime. But how do you know which ones to listen to? There’s no way you can apply all of them to your routine because you’d be applying over a hundred different products to your face.
So what new things should you add into your daily practice?
Exfoliators
Exfoliating is so important to give your skin that warm glow that everyone is so set on achieving. They work because they are essentially something you wash your face with, but it has tough grains inside that feel almost like sand or salt, and these work to remove any dead skin cells that have built up. If you don’t exfoliate, the cells will end up clogging your pores, and that’s how you start to get problems with spots and oily skin.
Serums
Face serums are a wonderful way to add plenty of key nutrients to the skin by deeply penetrating it with a very high concentration of ingredients. There are many to choose from so you can look at the ranking and reviews of the best face serums to give you a little more direction. These are also well known to target certain skincare concerns like the ageing process – like wrinkles. One example of this is Deep Wrinkle Filler, which works to virtually erase the appearance of wrinkles — you can see a Deep Wrinkle Filler review here.
Highlighters
Highlighters are a must have, especially now the sun is starting to make a longer appearance during the days. They come in all different colours and formulas like powder, liquid, and creams, so it all just depends on what you prefer to use. You apply a highlighter to the highest points of your face, so on the tops of your cheekbones, the arch of your brow, down the centre of your nose, and on your cupids bow. Then when the light hits your face – bring on the magical sparkles.
Lip balm
Lips tend to be very overlooked because so many people focus on the skin alone, but neglected lips mean that they’ll be dried and cracked, and no one wants that. Just like your face, you need to exfoliate your lips to get rid of any dry, dead skin. Then you will want to lather them up with a soothing balm to make sure they stay nice and soft. Keep a lip balm with you in your bag or jeans pocket so that you can always keep them fresh. You can even get tinted ones if you want to bring a pop of colour to your life.
As long as you have these basic essentials applied into your daily routine, there is no reason you shouldn’t have the best overall look once you’ve finished doing your makeup, or maybe you prefer more of a fresh-faced look.
One final tip is to always make sure your hands are clean, because you will most likely touch your face throughout the day, and this will transfer all the nasty bacteria onto your skin. So avoid touching it in the first place, and keep a bottle of antibacterial gel in your bag.
