We all want a nice and organized skincare routine. As we reach our mid-20s, more than us wanting to have a proper routine, our skin at that age actually requires extra care to help delay the signs of aging. For those of you who are struggling to figure out ways to layer your products correctly, here are a few tips that will guide you to layer your product in the correct order.
Cleanser
No matter how tired or lazy you may be, it is a must to wash off all the makeup before you go to sleep. If you leave the makeup on while you sleep, your pores will get block which will make your skin a bacteria infestation place ultimately causing you to breakout. Use some micellar water to remove all the heavy eye makeup and then follow with a gentle cleanser to clean off everything from your face.
The double cleansing method is extremely useful for people with all skin types. Once you have wiped your makeup off with micellar water, it may seem like your face is clean now. But actually, there is still a lot of dirt and makeup remaining on your face which is seldom visible to the naked eye. Double cleansing helps to draw out any remaining dirt or makeup on your face and pores. This helps to prevent pimples and blackheads as there is no gunk build-up.
Eye creams
Once you are done with your serum, give it a couple of minutes to set well into your skin. After that, you should go on your eye cream as it is thin in texture so applying anything on top of it will move it from its place. Simply take some eye cream and dab it around your eye area pushing it into your skin. Do not be harsh will the application process as the area around the eye has thin skin and pulling it will cause the formation of wrinkles.
Moisturizer
This is the most important part of the skincare routine. Once you have layered all of your products and given them adequate time to settle into your skin, apply a generous amount of moisturizer onto your face and neck. Again, do not be harsh with the application as puling the skin will result in the formation of fine lines and sagging and it would also cause the products under it to move from their place.
Take your time and gently massage your moisturizer onto your skin and neck. These steps were a basic guide to layer your products. However, some people like to add spot treatments and retinol to their skincare routine as well. All of those steps should be done after you apply the moisturizer as those treatments are strong and can leave your skin dry. So it is a must to apply them over the moisturizer.
