7 Basic Skincare Habits for all Skin Types and Genders

Your daily routine plays a crucial role in shaping the rhythm of your life, impacting your skin's appearance. A well-established skincare regimen can enhance the overall health and appearance of your skin.

Face Wash:

Wash your face twice daily (double cleanse at night) to eliminate excess oil. This also allows for product absorption on clean skin. Nighttime double cleansing helps remove excess sebum, debris, sweat, and acne causing bacteria. Choosing the right face wash can be overwhelming, LAP offers personalized guidance through consultation appointments.

Exfoliate:

Weekly exfoliation removes dead skin cells, promoting skin cell turnover and reducing dullness. This step ensures optimal product absorption.

Toner:

A toner helps rebalance the skin's pH. Cleansing may not always remove all dirt, oil, or makeup. It acts as an additional cleanse, ensuring no leftover impurities clog your pores.

Eye Cream: Prioritize eye cream for preventing and addressing fine lines and wrinkles. Apply it after washing or exfoliating to avoid potential issues like milia, as the under-eye skin is delicate and requires special care. When applying skincare, it's important to note that the molecules in many ingredients are often too large for the delicate skin under your eyes, potentially leading to milia (small bumps resembling whiteheads). Due to the thicker consistency of eye cream, applying it before the rest of your skincare regimen may hinder the absorption of subsequent products, thereby preventing the occurrence of milia on your skin.

Vitamin C: Incorporate Vitamin C into your routine for brightening, hydration, redness reduction, and even skin tone. It's a must-have for a well-rounded skincare regimen. Moisturize: Hydrating your skin is essential to balance dryness and oiliness, preventing an impaired skin barrier. Proper moisturization reduces oil production and controls natural oil overproduction, leading to healthier skin. SPF: The most crucial step in your routine is applying SPF daily. It preserves youthful-looking skin and, more importantly, prevents skin cancer. Without SPF, sun exposure can negate the benefits of your skincare efforts.

Facials:

Regular facials, performed by a skilled esthetician, provide deep cleaning, exfoliation, extraction, lymphatic drainage and guidance towards a skincare routine best suited for you. This step is important as it drastically improves the quality of your skin over time.
