SKINCARE ROUTINE AT MID-20S

​DO YOU HAVE A SKINCARE ROUTINE?

We know that for some of us can be super overwhelming to think about starting a skincare routine and learning what product to use, in what order, and how to choose the adequate one, especially with all the information available everywhere.

We are here to help you with that and to clear your thoughts, we know first hand how overwhelming can everything is and probably what is crossing your mind right now. We have successfully treated clients, and we love to guide all of you either to improve or to start a skincare routine keeping, so you are not alone.

First of all, relax, is not a big deal. Forget everything about the 7 step routines, and forget about the night and day routine, well kinda, let us explain a little bit more.
​
If you are new in your mid-20s and starting to get worried about your overall skin appearance and aging signs, maybe you are noticing some new dark spots or freckles, some fine lines are forming, and your skin doesn't feel quite as supple as before. The thing is after age 25, our skin does not renew and heal itself as good as before, collagen and elastin production drops significantly, internal and external factors, such as hormones changes, lack of sleep, contamination, stress, diet, and many more are now starting to show how well or bad we have been doing.

If you are in your mid-30s, you are probably showing a little bit more aging signs and if you went through pregnancy, or if you are breastfeeding right now, or if you have a super busy life with not enough time to take care of yourself, or maybe is the opposite and you have enjoyed your life out and about in the sun, tanning too much, having a poor diet, well your skin might be showing all of that.

Luckily, it is never too late to start, and you are in the right place.

Let's get to the point!
You can start with a super basic routine, that won't break the bank, and all you need is three basic products for a three-step routine.

1. Cleanser (Morning and night)
Choose the right cleanser for your skin type, if you don't know about it, get one for all skin types. There are basically three types of cleansers, a cream one that would not get foamy, a gel one, and the foamy one.

2. Moisturizer  (Morning and night)
When come to keep your skin supple, we recommend getting a moisturizer that helps you retain moisture, and don't worry, most do this. Want to add something extra, antiaging probably? Easy choose one with Hyaluronic Acid (aka Sodium Hyaluronate)

3. SPF  (Morning)
The sun is one of the biggest contributors to our skin problems, don't get us wrong, we love that vitamin D, but without the proper protection, your skin will, unfortunately, get damaged due to the UV rays, and this happens rains or shine, no matter how the forecast looks like, you have to wear an SPF 30+ EVERY-SINGLE-DAY. 
If you are associating SPF with that sticky, greasy substance, that makes you look all white, think again! There are plenty of "thin" options and many designed for your skin types and conditions, so even if you suffer from acne, you can find the right one.

Remember, we all tan, we all get sun damage, no matter how light or dark your skin, we have to protect it from UVA and UVB rays.

 One more thing, it is uper important to remove your makeup at night all the time, a clean skin leads to healthy skin.

Once you have dominated that first 3 STEP Skincare routine, you can move forward and start adding some serums and exfoliants.
Throw some sheet masks, collagen under eye and lip masks, eye cream, and so on.
