1. Deep Cleansing
Now we are all guilty of skipping skincare routine most especially our work or maybe our busy schedule is just taking so much of our time and we just want to hop to our beds after the day. But due to Fall and Winter, it left most of our skin dry and in worse condition when neglected.
So have you been doing deep cleansing, A.K.A. double cleansing? If not, then this is the perfect time, this new year to swear to your skin to take care of it more. An oil-based cleanser and regular cleanser will do the trick. Why oil-based? Simply put, when you’ve been a makeup lover, it needs oil to remove the makeup effectively. Also, it removes excess oil from the skin that would cause breakouts. Then after an oil cleanser, use your preferred cleaner whether it be foam or cream based. You’d feel clean, fresh and silky soft to your face.
