A simple skin care routine you can actually follow
A good routine can be short. The useful question is what your skin needs today, not how many steps you can fit in.
1. Cleanse gently
Wash away the day with a cleanser that leaves your skin comfortable. If your face feels tight afterward, a gentler formula may suit you better.
2. Add moisture
Apply a moisturizer that feels comfortable on your skin. Lighter textures can feel easier in humid weather, while richer textures may feel better when skin is dry.
3. Protect in the morning
Finish your morning routine with a broad-spectrum sunscreen. Follow the directions on its label and reapply as directed, especially when outdoors.
Keep it consistent
Try one new product at a time so you can notice how your skin responds. A patch test is a sensible first step for a new cosmetic. If irritation continues, stop using it and seek professional advice.
