6 Basic Skin Care Rules to Follow



Everybody is different, and this is as true for personalities as it is for skin. That being said, some rules for maintaining beautiful skin are so important that they transcend these differences and stand out as “rules” to live by. So while there may be some variation in how you approach your own skincare routine, we talked to the skincare and beauty researchers at Kristals Cosmetics to determine the basic tenets that everyone should be abiding by. Here are their suggestions.

#1 Apply Sunscreen Before Stepping Out
It can’t be said too often that sun is the enemy of healthy skin. Kristals Cosmetics skincareexperts recommend at least SPF 30 before heading outside and reapplying every two to three hours as needed.

#2 Moisturize Early and Often
Moisturizer is the key product in maintaining your healthy, youthful skin. And while it is possible to moisturize too much, it’s definitely critical after showering and at least one other time during the day. A hydrating mist product is a good way to fit in some moisturizing at other times throughout the day.

#3 Cleanse Daily
Like moisturizing, cleansing is another key to maintaining healthy skin. It’s a good idea to not clean your face until after your hair is washed. And if you’re staying in for the evening, clean your face after dinner rather than before bedtime to ensure that you do a thorough job without being too tired.

#4 Exfoliate Occasionally
Exfoliation is great for cleaning and softening the skin — once or twice a week. Do it too much, however, and you soon strip the skin of all its natural oilsand moisture. This inevitably leads to other problems.

#5 Keep Thing in Order
Just as important as what skincare products you use is the sequence in which you use them. A cleanser is always first, obviously, but you may not know that a toner and serum should precede your moisturizer. Moisturizer is the last step to handle before stepping into your clothes.

#6 Simplify Your Product List
While it’s okay to address a lot of different product categories (cleanser, toner, exfoliant, serum, moisturizer) based on your needs, you should only have one or two products you use within these categories. Picking and choosing too many can actually cause skin irritation and breakouts.
