Daily Skin Care Regime
Men as well as women will see a marked improvement in their skin if they follow a good skin care plan. Cleanse, tone and moisturise daily. Then exfoliate and use a mask a regularly. We all need to cleanse our face and neck, morning and night. The accumulation of dead cells, perspiration and make-up mixed with
grime in
atmosphere, clogs up our pores and results in a dull and lifeless appearance. After cleansing a toner is used to remove
last traces of cleanser and tighten and tone
pores. Toner leaves
skin feeling invigorated and cool. Next use a moisturizer. Pollution, sunlight, harsh weather, air conditioning and central heating remove moisture from
skin. This causes dry and dull skin. Two litres of water daily will hydrate your skin from
inside. You should also add moisture from
outside. A good moisturizer will help prevent your skin’s moisture from evaporating into
atmosphere. All skin types, including oily, need moisturizers.
