Taking care of your skin should be as simple as 1 2 3. It shouldn’t seem like a chore. We have narrowed down the most important things that should be a crucial part of your skincare routine.
1. Cleanser: Right after removing your makeup with a makeup remover, you need to use a cleanser to clean up the rest of the makeup and residue the makeup remover couldn’t get rid of. A cleanser is responsible for removing all the impurities, oils, dirt that’s clogged into your pores. There are different types of cleansers for different types of skin. Acne-prone cleansers are perfectly suitable for skins which are affected by acne. Oil-free and daily face cleansers are very popular among people who have sensitive skin.
