In summers , oily skin is prevalent. No metter whether you have dry skin or sensitive skin; you will always feel soem greasiness. To avoid such a situation, you must wash your face twice a day with a sulfate-fee face wash . it cleanses your skin deelpy, thereby removing all the dust and grime. If you have dry kin, use a mild foaming cleanser.

2)        Remove Makeup

Removing your makeup should be the first step to your skincare routine. Use some micellar water or a mild makeup remover that will not dry out your skin further. Choose a formula that gets rid of oil-based makeup as well.

3)        Cleanse

Use a gentle cleanser to clean your face and neck. You can even follow the Korean skincare routine and double cleanse your skin by using an oil first, followed by a cleanser. Double-cleansing ensures nothing blocks your pores as you eliminate all the dirt and sebum collected on your skin.

4)        Tone

Use a softener or toner to smoothen the skin and balance its pH levels [1]. Toners are especially useful for those who have oily skin [2]. If you have dry skin, use a softener to hydrate the skin.

5)         Serum

Using a serum can address numerous skin concerns. You can use a serum on problem areas of your skin like an anti-acne or oil-control serum. Based on your skin's needs, you can also use a formula that contains retinoids [3] or a hydrating or firming serum.

 

6)        Moisturize

Moisturizing your skin is crucial as it provides your skin with essential nutrients and helps repair damage. Choose a night cream that contains Hyaluronic acid [4], which helps the skin retain moisture and nourishes it without blocking pores.

7)         6. Eye Cream

Many of us overlook this area and presume that a moisturizer is enough. But the skin surrounding your eyes is the thinnest and is likely to wrinkle the fastest. Opt for products that target the under-eye area, and contain peptides [5] that increase hydration and prevent wrinkles and fine lines.

8)        Masks

Face masks are an effective way to deliver an intensive burst of nourishment and therapeutic skincare ingredients to your skin. Try to apply a hydrating mask to your face, at least once a week. While there is an abundance of masks to choose from, clay masks work best for oily skin and hydrating ones for dry skin.

9)        Hydrate/Use A Humidifier

If you live in an arid or dry climate, it can strip your skin of moisture even as you sleep. You can use a humidifier [6] in the room, so the air is not too dry. Hydrating from within by drinking enough water throughout the day also helps the skin stay moisturized.

10)      Lip Balm

Your lips are also likely to bear the brunt of dirt and pollution. Wash your lips too when you clean your face, and after drying, apply a lip balm to keep them moisturized through the night. Apply it only after you have brushed your teeth.
