A good skincare routine doesn't have to be complicated. Whether you're a man or woman, building a consistent routine around cleansing, hydration and protecting your skin can be more useful than constantly switching between products.
This five-step approach provides a simple foundation for everyday skincare while featuring brands including Aesop, Farmacy, OLEHENRIKSEN and Base Butter.
1. Start With a Clean Face
Cleansing is the foundation of a skincare routine. A facial cleanser helps remove dirt, excess oil, sweat and other buildup from the skin.
Wash gently rather than aggressively scrubbing your face. The goal is to clean the skin without leaving it feeling unnecessarily dry or irritated.
2. Prepare and Refresh the Skin
After cleansing, the next step can focus on preparing the skin for the products that follow. Depending on your skin type and the products you use, this might include a toner, essence or another lightweight skincare product.
You don't necessarily need every product category available. A simpler routine that you consistently follow may be easier to maintain.
3. Target Your Specific Skin Needs
This is where serums and other targeted products can fit into a routine. Different products are designed around concerns such as dryness, uneven-looking skin or overall hydration.
When introducing something new, follow the product directions and consider adding one product at a time so it's easier to determine how your skin responds.
4. Moisturize
Moisturizer helps support hydration and is useful even if your skin doesn't feel particularly dry. The texture you prefer may vary depending on your skin type, climate and time of year.
The most important part is finding something comfortable enough that you'll actually use it consistently.
5. Don't Forget Sun Protection
For a daytime routine, sunscreen is an important final step. Apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen according to its directions, especially when you'll be spending time outdoors.
