HERE'S AN EASY 20 MINUTE SKIN CARE ROUTINE
(1). Cleanse face with gentle cleanser to suit skin type, using a cotton ball or a washcloth.
(2). Steam face with head over bowl of steaming hot water for 2 minutes.
(3). Apply moisturizing, purifying face mask.
(4). Bath or shower with a few drops of relaxing essential oil
or
invigorating oil in the water. You may also put used herbal tea bags,
or cucumber or potato slices over your eyes to remove the bagginess
around the eyes. Relax totally for 10 minutes.
(5). Pat body dry
with thick warm towels. Apply body lotion all over while skin is still
moist. Take special care of feet, knees, elbows, and neck.
(6). Remove mask with warm water and spray or splash face with mineral water.
(7). Apply eye-soothing gel (if you are going out) or night eye cream (if you are going to bed) around eyes and on lids.
(8). Apply moisturizer to face if going out, or your favourite night cream/oil if not.
(9). Apply hand cream and a nail cream around cuticles
Basic Skin Care
A daily routine of skin care requires no more than ten minutes and requires only three simple steps each evening and morning:
(1). Cleanse
(2). Tone
(3). Moisturize
Night care
(1).
Cleanse: Remove any makeup with cleansing cream or a natural makeup
remover. Wash with mild soap or other cleanser, rinse, and pat dry.
(2).
Ton: Apply an acid-containing solution to restore the pH balance and
protective shield. For dry skin, use a mild freshener-toner. For oily
skin, use an astringent preparation.
(3). Moisturize. Splash on
cool water or mist with a spray bottle. Blot, but do not dry
completely-moisturizer magic relies more on retaining moisture than in
providing it-then smooth on a few drops of your moisturizer.
Day care
(1). Cleanse lightly to remove night time accumulations, refresh your face with a few splashes of water, and pat dry.
(2). Tone by applying a freshener or astringent.
(3).
Moisturize around your eyes. If your face is excessively dry, mist or
splash with water, blot, and then lightly cover with moisturizer.
