Beauty Tips on Facial Skin Care

By Serena Greene

'Facial skin care' is more a matter of discipline than anything more. It's also about using the best products that you can afford to achieve a beautiful complexion.

The top salons can advise you on the top beauty care products and regime for your skin type but here's some tips to get you moving.

A facial skin care routine is what you need ( and you want to follow the facial skin care programme with complete seriousness ).

So let's check what comprises a good facial skin care routine.

Well, very simply, a facial skin care programme can follow the following four steps :

* Cleansing * Toning * Exfoliating * Moisturising

Cleaning is the first thing in facial skin care routine. Cleaning assists in removing dust, contaminants, grease and extra oil from your skin, thereby forestalling damage to your skin.

Just spot your neck and face with a good cleansing lotion or cream and carefully massage it into your skin using upward movement. Employ a soft face tissue or cotton wool to wipe your face in a gentle patting fashion (don't rub). Cleansing should be done at least two times a day i.e. Morning ( as a part of complete facial skin care routine ) and evening (on a standalone basis).

Water-soluble cleaners are recommended for inclusion in your facial skin care routine.

Toning is the subsequent in a facial skin care routine. However, this is your optional part of the facial skin care routine. Mostly, correct cleaning can compensate for toning. Toning helps remove all traces of dust, grease and excess cleaner. Instead of making it part of your daily facial beauty care routine, you can using toning occasionally i.e. When you've been exposed to especially tough environment/pollution.

Exfoliation is again, kind of, optional step in daily routine for facial beauty care. However, exfoliation is required at least once a week ( or twice, depending on your skin type and the environmental conditions ). Exfoliation discovers its place in facial beauty care programme due to the natural disposition of skin to make good the skin cells every 3 or four weeks.

As a facial beauty care method, exfoliation helps in removing the dead skin cells that block the pores, so aiding the skin in the natural process. However, exaggerated or vicious exfoliation could cause damage to your skin ; so you want to balance it out.

The following thing in facial beauty care is moisturising.

In fact, moisturising is the most important part of facial skin care routine. Moisturisers prevent your skin from getting dry. Dry skin is really unattractive since it cause the higher layer skin to smash, leading to dead skin cells. Again, use light upward strokes to make the moisturiser better. Moisturisers work the best when applied on warm and damp skin.

So don't try and remove all the moisture in the prior steps of facial skin care routine.

Besides the ordinary facial skin care routine, you need to also exercise the following for facial skin care :

* Use correct make-up remover instead of just washing it away * Pay heed to your skin type and the environment, when selecting facial skin creams. * Before you start to use a new facial skin product, test it by applying it on a short patch of skin e.g. Ear lobes. * Never rub your skin too hard. * Use suntan lotion for defense against sun.
