Tips And Tricks : Your Face

I've always been asked about the correct way to cleanse your face and to be honest I never have anybody tell or teach me how to. I can say that my skin is normal, sometimes it gets oily around the nose but that only happen when I stay to long under the sun or during my menstrual cycle. It also gets dry but that is a rare condition for my skin to occur, unless I'm on flight or a very cold place.

Thanks to Youtube and Google, I made some research and learned the correct way to keep your face clean and hydrated! 

I will write about the type of face cleanser you should use for different types of skin and your facial night and morning routine. So lets get started! Here are my tips on HOW TO CLEANSE YOUR FACE: THE CORRECT WAY. Specifically for teenagers.

Now, there are three types of skin. The oily skin, dry skin and the normal skin. 

OILY SKIN - You should use a deep cleanser. Never use face wash or gel textured. Find a cleanser with micro beads. It will scrub the oil excess on your skin and also cleanse your pores. Scrub twice or trice a week. 

DRY SKIN - You should use a face wash or gel textured wash. Using a deep cleanser will make your skin drier and white flakes or blemishes will appear. Scrub once a week. 

NORMAL SKIN - Either face wash or a cleanse would do. I prefer using the face wash in the morning and a cleanser at night because you're more likely to have a balance pH skin in the morning due to low light intensity during your night sleep. Due to the heat and sweat in the morning you want to use the cleanser at night to cleanse the clogged pores.

If you're in the mood, place a wet warm towel on your face for 1 minute to really open up the pores. This way the cleansers can get deep into your pores. You should massage your face in light circular motions. The cleansers need time for it to really activate and get into the pores, don't rush. Take your time. Wash your face with warm water and pat a soft dry towel on your face. Don't rub, pat. Rubbing will make it worse! It'll leave blemish and dehydrate your face. 

Now, we know that face wash is for cleansing your skin and pores. So, what are the benefits of the other products? Lemme tell you. EXFOLIATING helps to scrub the dry and dead layers on your face. This way your skin can breathe and stimulate the upper epidermis of your skin for healthy and youthful skin. Don't exfoliate everyday or else it will dry out your skin because your upper epidermis is thinning. TONER helps to balance the pH value of your skin and wipes the excess chemicals from your face. Your skin may feel a little dry, that means your skin is breathing. So, applying MOISTURISER is the way to solve your problem. Moisturizer adds a protective layer on your skin to prevent your skin from dehydrating and UV rays. They have a specific SPF value to prevent your skin from harmful heat or rays. MASKS is optional. You may use is once a week or twice a month for tightening your skin to prevent wrinkles and removing dead skin cells. EYE CREAM is very important for students and working adults to lighten the dark circles and prolong the time for wrinkles to appear around the eye.

I hope this post could help someone out there. Last but not least, after you're done with your cleansing routine, wear a layer of lip balm to moisturize your lips! They're also part of your face!
