Night Skin Care: You lead a busy life, between work, family, friends and the daily grind, your skin gets exposed to pollution, dirt and harsh weather conditions. At the end of the day, all you want to do is flop on your bed and get some much needed rest. But did you know, in time, all that harmful exposure during the day can cause premature ageing and damage your skin? To prevent this, you need to establish a night skin care routine that protects, cares and nourishes your skin. Check out these 10 simple steps to pamper your skin at night.
Step 1: Remove your makeup:
Sometimes, you need to end the day on a fresh note. Start your night care routine by using a quality makeup remover to gently erase the makeup from your face.
Step 2: Cleanse, Cleanse & Cleanse:
Although you already started to clean your face by removing your makeup, a good cleanse doesn’t end there. Wash your face with a combination of warm water and a cleanser. (Rinse it off thoroughly).
Step 3: Exfoliate:
Although exfoliation can work wonders on your skin, this step is only to be carried out twice or thrice a week. In order to have fresh, supple skin, you need to slough off the dead cells on the surface. Concentrate on the pores on your cheeks and on scrubbing off the blackheads on your nose. Blackheads and pores on your nose and cheeks can be persistent, but overusing your exfoliate is never a good idea.
Step 4: Tone it up:
Follow the exfoliation with an alcohol based toner to restore the PH balance of your skin. Just moisten the cotton ball and pat it gently over your face and neck.
Step 5: Moisturise:
After you’ve cleansed your face, moisturizing it is essential. When you wash your face, essential oils get washed away along with any dirt or makeup. To replenish and nourish your skin, moisturizer is essential. (Choose a water based moisturizer if you have oily skin.) Take a little extra time out and moisturise your elbows, heels, knees, hands and feet – these parts are especially dry at night.Read More..
